The one reliable place to look for confirmation of the next model year is here:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/onroad/.../2011/2011.php The motor Company has to go through the CA EPA which gives a real good hint to next year's models. Unfortunately we'll probably have to wait till June before it posts.

That salesman is a moron. The Fat Bob has got to be a good seller for them. You can't spit around here without hitting either a fat bob or a street bob. As for the crossbones, they can discontinue it, I've got mine. They would be RETARDED to kill the Crossbones and not bring back a Springer of some type. I like the NightTrain too, but I will bet they will let the Fat Boy Lo develop a little bit first before they bring the train back.

They could scrap the crossbones, but bring back the Bad Boy!!!! Now that would be pretty sweet.

Default softail

it seems like what they are doing now days is trying to create a demand. when you cant have something it seems like more want it. its really not a big deal for them to tool up to run a bike. it seems like they are doing away with things then bring back some oldies and then they do it again.the softail custom was gone for awhile then back. lets see what comes back next

I still can't believe they did away with the Deuce....don't know how well it sold with regards to the numbers but that was one good looking bike IMO!

I personally would like to see the Heritage Springer brought back.
