Wait a minute...I want to get this straight. I read it slow not to miss anything...Are you saying that the HD parts guy had no clue? I don't believe it. It's simply impossible

I love the look of this new bike. Mine's only a year old so there's no new bike in my future but if I were looking now, this would be one worth checking out.

It would look great along side my 03 883R. Just when I thought that I had purchased my last HD only comes the new R. Crap!

I love my Custom too, but I've already called my salesman and told him to let me know when the first Roadster arrives. This won't go over well at home ...

I think I could wait that long if I knew it was coming.
