Has anyone heard how Harley is doing on shipping from the factory. I was told by the dealer that the shipping date was Dec. 17th and then they told me that the shipping date was Dec. 10th. I ordered the bike Nov. 1
What do you think? Sometme after Jan 1 or should I be expecting a phone call soon. The bike is coming in to Vancouver, Washington.

Columbia HD? Great people. Bought my XL there but ended up at Latus for my RG. Quite a difference between those two.
I'm sure you'll be riding on the first clear day even if it's cold. PM me and maybe I'll join you.

I ordered a 03 Peace Officer in November 02. Of course there was a lot of bikes ordered that year and I was told it would arrive spring 03. It didnt come until the 1st week of Sept 03. The build date was the last day of 03 production.What I was told when I contacted the factory was that Harley only makes POSE/Firefighter and Shriner bikes on the last day of the quarter or the last two days of the quarter. I went to buy an 06 POSE Ultra and decided to buy a vivid black one on the floor whenthey made me a deal. I dont know if HD makes them quarterly for sure, but that was the story I was given.
I ordered my 08 EGC POSE (vivid black) back in early August and after several "delays" it finally shipped in late November. The Dealer (The Harley-Davidson Shop) was good about keeping me up to date and having everything ready when I went to pick it up. I couldn't be more pleased with the whole experience. Once you get your bike and start riding it all of the time you spent waiting will vanish. The 08 EGC POSE's are great looking bikes and awesome riding machines! Hang in there, and in the meantime start buying some riding gear. You're gonna need it!
Thanks for the good word about Columbia Harley Davidson. I will probably use a friends enclosed trailer to pick it up once it comes in. I live way up North in Marysville, WA but would still like to go for a ride some time.
Thanks for the reply guys. I guess I will just have to wait my turn for the bike to arrive. I also got the Vivid Black and can't wait to see the whole package with badge and emblem, etc.
