Default RE: Changes for 2006

Howdy Ken, welcome to Harley Country. There has been some talk earlier on this forum about the changes that HD plans on making to their lineup. I can't remember what they were but I'm sure that if you went back into the history and typed in what you were looking for, that you might be able to find out the answers that you are looking for. I believe that some of the changes that they were going to make didn't meet with too much of an approval. Hope this helps a little. Good luck

I just talked to a Harley dealer and he said that the only changes coming up for the 2006 line are the choice of colours. The controversy about the 2006 models comes from the EPA and what mods you will be able to do to the new models.
