RE: Saw some 2009's today
 \\; \\; \\; I bought the 1st 105th RG in NC last year. I picked it up on July 18 and the dealer had a few days prior to that. They were \\; being shipped while all the HD folks were meeting in Nashville.
RE: Saw some 2009's today
The Sportsters are coming out first about mid-July. Everything else will be August and beyond-and yes, they are shipped in enclosed crates so no peek-a-boooo....
 \\; Good tease, though..

Wow, guess I should have kept my mouth shut. They were off loading them from a trailer and then he would start them up and ride them to the back of his shop. He said he was prepping them for a Harley Promotion?

Sorry if \\;I stirred the pot, but that is what I saw. I'll keep my mouth shut from now on.........
 \\;
And \\;I didn't get any pics.

On the watercooled front.
My neighbor has one of those honda 1100's( sort of a Harley FX looking wannabe)
Anyhow with the fins it sort of looks air cooled. I didn't notice the radiator (at 1st)
Wasn't really oogling it anyways. I'm sure Harley will make something watercooled
and decent looking. They have dropped a few sh__bombs on us lately though. (eg\\; Rocker . . .
and the Rocker C) But \\;I don't think they're gonna screw up the FL line. It's their
bread n butter. In the past the Dyna has been the guinnee (spl/chk) pig. (1st with
the Twin Cam) Who knows?

Actually not too hard to believe. \\; The SE Road King has had a 170 and larger rear fender for two years. \\; It will most likely be "stock" on all touring bikes this year. \\; The reason I say that is, the same thing happened with the Fatboy. \\; For two years the SE Fatboy ran with a 200MM tire. \\; By the third year, the 200 was stock on all Fatboys...

Right or wrong, thanks for the info...
