I know a guy who works in Milwaukee, and he told me that the 2017 wet heads will have increased moisture.

I suspect that black will remain as the one color that will be available on every model offered. Excluding the CVO bikes.

My ex-wife's cousin works with the daughter of a guy that dated the mother of a woman that cleans the building next to MoCo HQ and he basically confirmed all that plus the moisture will increase by at least 80% when ridden in the rain!

I heard from a friend of friend of friend, who heard from someone on good authority that Harley will eliminate the infotainment system on all baggers. The MoCo wants to decrease the number of radio riders, hoping they will purchase a "wind in the face and ears" motorcycle. However, a fold-out map will be included with the purchase of '17 bagger, along with a complimentary cup holder.
