I've been participating in these forums for a long time. To me the relative lack of "chatter" over the 2020 models stands out in comparison to how I remember previous model rollouts. Am I correct? Does this indicate a lack of enthusiasm? Your thoughts.
I used to be "anxious" while waiting for the debut of new year models. But...., not this year. As a matter of fact not last year or the year before that either. I'm happy with my '16 Twinkie, don't want no stinkin' M8.
I've only been here a little over a year, but in that short time I've noticed a downward trend in participation due to a few members that seem to suffer from narcissistic personality disorder. Maybe it's not the new bikes.
very happy with my 17..but the 2020s are good bikes for the folks that when the M8 was introduced stated they would wait a fews years for 'bugs' to be worked out, as part of the normal maturation process..so at least all the 2020s have the primary vent and new oil pump with seal and maybe a few hidden enhancements..no reason to believe they aren't the best iteration yet

I agree MJ, the 2020s are the best iteration of the M8 platform yet, and are the bikes for those that were holding out for HD to get things squared away.
