Default 2012 is the year for Water Cooled Harley's
With most of the big twins going to be 103.

With the heat issues with the 96 needing the rear cylinder cut off.

With tightening EPA rules.

With Harley getting a new water cooled engine patent dated May 19, 2011.

Makes me think this is the year for water cooled Harley's.

No thanks. If I wanted a water cooled Harley I'd buy a vrod. And I don't like vrods.
