Water cooling, cruise control and ABS are standard features on 10 year old motorcycles that are 1/2 the price.

I know it's early, but my sister's other sister told her hubby that she knows a paint supplier, that stocks HD. Yes, 2017 will have ugly *** colors, just like 2016.

I heard that they are coming out with a new model. It's called the Astroglide. It's shaped like a buttplug to satisfy all of the "stealer" bashers. And yes, it only comes in browm.

V-rod motor in all touring bikes for 2017 and no more black paint. Seems as if they ran out from past models. 😜
