Actually it'll probably be just the opposite, with the economy the way it is the moco will probably do away with more models. Think about that one...and hang on to your old bikes.

Most of you seem to want something a bit on the performance side of things, some want a bit more nostalgia...the shovel and the kicker are dead; neather would sell more than a handful of units world wide and the shovel couldn't hope to meet emissions standards. The FXDX with a 110 motor (I'd prefer a 113) would be easy to "re-introduce"; with optional re-styled hard bags and a fork mounted fairing it would be a modern FXDXT...my personal choice. as far as an FLH variant; what would a 7" headlight and FLH fender look like on Fat Boy? One thing they should be able to do without much pain is offer a larger motor as a factory option, like the old days when you could have a slant 6 or a hemi in your Challenger.....

i haven't been riddin that long so i don't know many models, i'm not talkin about engines, i'm talkin models.
the model that i have seen go away in my limited time riddin that i wish they didn't was the
springer classic. that bike just looks great! and its on the touring end of the spectrum so you could do alot of riddin with it.

Mine if financed and I did a refi on it a couple of weeks ago to lower my interest rate. when they checked the book value on it I was surprised to find that it booked at $14,950.00. That's close to what I paid for it when I bought it new. I expected the book value to remain high but thought it would drop for at least a couple of more years before it started to go back up.
As far as a model I'd like to see brought back....I always thought the XA was kinda cool.
