Default No more Night Train... Why?

Does anyone know why this is the last year that the night train will be put into production. Why is this sweet bike being discontinued?

been beaten to death on here. There is a few postings about it from a few months ago. They introduced some new models, and unfortunately, had to cut a few. I do agree that the Night Train is a great bike, and highly sought after.

Some people speculate that it may be back mid-year or maybe revamped in the following years, but who knows.

I don't think thats it. Check out the Fat Boy Low and Cross Bones. All the flat black touring modles.

Better give Harley a call because they obviously haven't caught on. Take a look at the 2010 Dyna line.... everything is blacked out now.
