Default Missing Tachs on Harley website

As of 8/3/2010 and for the last week there are no mini-tachometers listed on the official Harley website for Dyna's or Softtail models. What does this mean? I imagine they wouldn't just stop selling them completely but who knows? Perhaps they are making them all completely new but the face would have to match what the current bikes have for speedometers.

Anyone hear what might be going on?

Maybe they just don't sell so well as an add on. I may get some flack, but IMO a tach is nearly useless, unless used while tuning an older bike. After an initial wow factor, most people just shift by listening to the motor.

Well I'll be damned. Softtail mini-tachs have shown up but the Dyna ones are still missing for some reason. Might just be a website glitch. I sure wish they would sell the silver face mini-tachs again.
