I have a cousin whose friend's sister-in-law has a half brother from a 4th marriage who delivers bottled water to the MOCO in Milwaukee. He tells me on good authority that the 2013s will all be equipped with a Flux Capacitor. Apparently, however, the voltage regulators still have a problem and cannot generate the required 1.21 gigawatts of power, so they have to install lightning rods on all of them before they leave the factory. This must be what your contact is talking about.

True... but you can get on the list for the dilithium crystal upgrade if you buy one of the 2013 models before the end of the month.
I heard that a special bulletin was sent out by the MoCo in regard to the '13 models that states "Prior to arrival at the Dealerships, rumors regarding these units are not allowed".
That's the rumor going on around here...
Torquey, you forgot to mention that despite the special cooling system, the bike will still get hot enough to roast your chestnuts when stuck in traffic.
Been waiting for the MoCo to produce and sell a reliable trouble free motorcycle , probably why I'm still riding a 40 yr old bike ...................................
I am close personal friends with the service writer at one of the local dealerships.
Last nite at the dirt track he told me the mothership is franticly calling all dealerships for somthing majorly wrong with the 2013's that cant be fixed before delivery. He couldnt tell me what it is but that it was major and that I should consider a 12 limited rather than wait for the 13 like I was planning

If that's the case, and Harley was calling all the dealers, why couldn't your buddy tell you the specifics? No way for me to say it isn't true, but seems a little odd that he couldn't tell you what the deal is and yet all the Harley dealers know.
Yeah, right. Why would they CALL when they can mass email?
