Pretty much.
And a really freaking expensive CVO. Costs more than a Street Glide.

We lost a Sportster, but to be fair we gained one earlier in the year.

Supposedly there is going to be another late release of a new bike. Kind of like how the slim and 72 were released later. Supposedly...

Anyone else look at the new ones & different options and keep them in mind for 3 years later when they are reasonably priced?

I see the VROD's are starting to dwindle, the XR is gone BOO!
No Springers of any kind and they kept that HIDEOUS Slim? Who does that to a front fender and can sleep at night?
The colors are just in time for Christmas and Easter all sparkly n what not!

Oh, right, I forgot that about the XR.
It had a place and a purpose, but apparently it was too niche for the MOCO.

Personally none of the '13's really caught my eye.
I'd rather have a Night Train or a Crossbones, both of which are no longer in production.

You must've never seen the prices on the CVO Street Glide? That'll make you **** a chicken.

I thought the XR was still available in Europe, no?

to loose the Nighster to have a 72 instead is a bonus to me, IMHO
