No, this was down at the Woodstock, IL Harley dealership, I think I remeber him telling me they got 27 '07s in that Friday night, had about 12-15 already on the floor and ready to go Saturday. Biggest dealer I've been to and everytime I've been there they were great.

You had a chance to drive an '07 already? Was this as Cap City? Wisconsin Harley told me they won't have an '07 demo until next month. WTF?
I don't think I've ever seen a HD I didn't like. If I were a millionaire, I'd have 50 or 60 bikes in my garage.
I'll definitely go along with that! The new Night Rod Special has my attention. Pretty cool that the Fatboy will have 200mm tires front and back as well. Bunch of cool stuff if ya ask me.
Was at Battlefield H-D this afternoon checking out the '07s. I like the fact that they are all six speeds and 96ci. Have a RKC I laid an eyeball on the I'll be callin on first thing in the am!!!
I was also at Battlefield HD today. Was hoping to see a new FatBoy since that's what I'm in the market for. I liked the Pacific Blue Demin paint on the 07 Night Train. Although the average person would think it needs a clearcoat added. The salesman was not giving any ptices nor did he know if 06 parts will fit 07 bikes. I would think they would. Then went to Frederick HD and they didn't have any 07's on the floor. Salesman there said the 06 prices wouldn't be coming down to make room for their 07's. Guess they won't be getting my bizness.

Have patience. HD will be offering incentives on '06 bikes - probably sooner than later. (Personally, I think a dealer would be a fool not to offer some type of incentive to move the '06 models now.)

I noticed Battlefield had dropped the prices on the 06's they had on the floor. We'll see what gives when I call tomorrow.
Can't say for sure how much I like them yet but I do like the direction the MOCO is going. I am planning on test driving an '07 bagger ASAP.
Also, did anybody else notice that there is a V-Rod with a 5 gallon fuel tank now? Does this mean there will be a touring V-Rod soon?[sm=confused06.gif]
That jumped right out at me tooAnd we are thinking alike on the Bagger

That blacked out Night Rod gives me a woody. I think when you look back several years from now, 07 will have been a pivotal year in the moco history. I am looking forward to the display at the civic center in Rapid City during Sturgis.
