I was at the dealer today and one of the techs said he heard the Deluxe would not be available in '09. Has any body elese heard this?

 

The should only discontinue the orange and red color scheme I saw today. Sorry if anyone has this, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I guess.

 

I will second getting rid of those colors. But thats bull crap about discontinue.

 

If that is true, they just lost a future customer...my wife is dreaming of the day she can get herself a Deluxe!!

 

That's gay!! Why would they do that? It's the best looking bike they make.

 

No! What am I going to do when I buy a new bike? I guess I'll just have to get a Road King Classic take the bags and windshield off and change the bars.

 

Harley has done this before. They released the Deluxe back in 93 or 94 and ran it for 3 years. It's been back out for 3 years and I too have heard that 08 was the last year so... I can see why they do it too. Keep the numbers down on how many are on the road and make it something special. Don't agree with it, but Harley doesn't listen to me.

 

Thats interesting. From what I have seen the Deluxe is a very popular bike and the number I see on the road seems to grow daily. I know my wife will be glad she got her Deluxe this past year if they do ditch them though because she fell in love with the Deluxe the first time she saw one.

 

That would be a shame. The deluxe is a sweet bike and can go so many ways when customized. It was a tough choice between the deluxe and my fatboy. Hate to see it go if its true

 

Gotta make room for those fine looking Rockers
