Called the dealer this morning to ask if they had one. Said yes but they weren't showing it until the big unvieling tonight at 7. Went out there and they gave me a good trade in for my 07 FXDL so I bought it. Can't get it until after the party. Order a bunch of accessories to add in on the finance so want pick it up until all are installed. Can hardly wait.

My local dealer got one in Tuesday afternoon & sold it Wednesday morning to a girl who traded in an '06 Springer. Damn, just came out & it's already a girl's bike..

yup, girls bike. got it for the ol. (but i sure do like it) traded her low rider. funny thing is though, after the deal she was looking around the show room and sat on a fatboy low and fell in love w/it. no pics cause it's in the shop having a bunch of accesories and mods done. I'll take some when i get it home but will have to email them to some one to post for me. just can't seen to figure the pic posting thing out.
