Default 08 Rocker
Anyone who has ordered one have a "confirmed" delivery date? I heard at a dealer they won't be out until Dec. or Jan. due to "production problems". Dealer said there was a robot welding issue. Yikes!

I think they're just trying to thin the '07 heard a little more before they fill the showrooms with the '08 models. We had a dealer down in Orlando cut prices in half one day only with no advertisement. They're sold a ton of bikes that day.

Maybe, but the dealer also said they gave back the ones allocated to them.
