And the only ones that GAF are the jones who feel the need to keep up.
Bought my 16SG back in May, Dealer calls me last week and wanted to know if I wanted to trade it in on a New 17...Only a 1700 hit. And still it's a first year design...that's a whole bag of nope in my book.

Why spend big bucks when you can upgrade a few things for far less. In California you can upgrade for the cost of a new bike tax and license.
Something to think about.

Only if design is the same. Take an inline 4 at 1/2 the displacement & it'll smoke these big inefficient V-twins in HP & speed.
No 107 in my future, I'm the type of guy that holds onto vehicles for decades, unless they end up being complete POS's. 103 is good enough for me.

I just got back from Fayetteville,AR and did the HD demo rides at BB&BBQ. I test rode all the touring bikes and the new m8 is really nice in both formats. But riding my 15 limited thru many of the great back roads down there I'll be keeping mine for awhile longer since they only want to give me 16 or 17 grand out of mine and want full msrp on theirs. Screw that. For $1700 difference mentioned above I'd be seriously consider getting a new orange Road Glide special. I think that color is stunning and begs to be blacked out. The new bikes are just a little better but not for what they want. Not to me.
