RE: Who has decided to buy a 2008 model already?
I didn't look up each one to see side by side but my initial thought was the prices when down on a lot of the models.The Low Rider is less than what i spent in 06 and i think the Ultra is less than 07, not sure about 06.

That passenger seat on the Rocker C is ugly.
Looks like a sportbike passenger seat stuck on the back of a "chopper".
The price at $19k is a joke too.
I've got an '07 so I'm not looking at getting anything new anyway.
But if I were in the market, nothing would call my name from the '08 lineup that wasn't already calling my name in '07.

I think I'll just keep my old '04 now that it's runnning super good plus I only have 1100 miles on the rebuild and 15000 on the bike. I see nothing to make me change with the new line-up. If I want to change colors, which I don't, the best painter in town lives across the street from me. His speciality is trick painting. =)

08 Road Glide on order. Orange baby, orange!! Mid August delivery!!! Its too late now, I will just wait and see. I will let you know how it goes. I am impressed with the rubber isolated compensator sprocket. Sport bikes (including V-Rods) have been running them for years, in different locations of the drivetrain. Should stop all that 5th 6th gear chatter.
Will see,
Doug
