That only makes sense since they turned the engines sideways for better cooling.

I heard that they are going to be using solid rubber tires. Won't have to worry about blow outs any more

Think those were called Buell's and the company never really supported them right.

They're finally going to put a V-Rod motor in a touring frame. I can't wait!

Shaft drive, along with a rubber mounted, fully water cooled, B Engine will only be available on Touring Models. Ultras will have windshield wipers and LTDs will have a roof. This should help the riders who don't like putting up with wind when riding a motorcycle. CVOs will have satellite TVs. All other families of bikes will continue to look and ride like motorcycles.

The CVOs with the sat TV also comes with a custom drivers helmet with a LCD screen built into the rear so the passenger can watch while riding. The remote is built into the seat. My wife tells me we are trading up next year.
