Default what model should they bring back?

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.

what ya'll think HD should bring back

I agree on the Springer Classic and add the Road King Custom. Also a Sportster XLCH (kick start, baby ).

I'd like to see them bring back the FXR also, but the Evo version instead of a Shovel. A 6spd does sound pretty sweet though. Hmm, a 103 or 110 Twinky in a FXR frame might be pretty cool also.

The Wide Glide. That thing they call a wide glide for 2010 looks like a 750 Honda Shadow...

Also agree on the Springer Classic, but add a kicker and pogo seat.

How about Duo-Glide based on a Dyna frame. FL front end, exposed shocks, doesn't look like **** with out the bags and a shakin engine, not that I put much thought into it......
