For what it's worth, Heard a rumor at loal dealership (from an untested source) that the&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;2009 lineup &nbsp\\;\\\\\\;will&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;include a factory stock trike.
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
List at just under $30K.

That's probably a good rumor.&nbsp\\;There was a public announcement of a deal with Lehman Trikes about a year ago.
I also think the XR1200 rumor might be true.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;

HD teamed up with Lehman so a trike model makes sense.
I just hope they got some creativity this year. Last years Cross Bones is cool but they need to do more to all their lines.

I heard the Lehman deal feel through...can't understand why Harley ( American ) would go with Lehman ( Canadian )...
Test drove a 2008 Ultra with the California Sidecar Trike kit at the CSC factory, sweet, very smooth suspension...

Are you serious? 10ga tank?&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; ****!
&nbsp\\;
I gotta have one.&nbsp\\; 10 gallons! just imagine, one could actually do the Iron Butt BunBurner 1500 Gold (1,500 in 24 hours) on a Harley.&nbsp\\; As is a&nbsp\\;a gas stop every 170 miles with my 5 gallon tank, I'll never&nbsp\\;make it.
&nbsp\\;
just for fun, a couple weeks ago I ran from OKC to JAX straight through.&nbsp\\; no food stops, just gas, and only managed 1,242 miles in 18+55.&nbsp\\; doing the math I&nbsp\\;averaged 65 MPG. which means 1,500 miles would take at least 23 hours.&nbsp\\; that's cutting it awful close with inaccurate motorcycle speedos&nbsp\\;and all the trip logging and documentation required for the Iron Butt Association.

Very funny.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; But, MoCo would go bust with a 10 year 100000 mile warranty.

Don't you know???&nbsp\\;

Sitting on the seat voids the warranty!!!

&nbsp\\; The Lehman deal didn't fall through.&nbsp\\; I questioned the same, Why Lehman?&nbsp\\;I was told they were the only ones that could produce the quantity Harley wanted.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;They also&nbsp\\;wanted the freedom to design and work with a company to produce their own trike and not an existing one with HD slapped on it.&nbsp\\; Lehman had the manufacturing ability and space they wanted.&nbsp\\;

I heard the same about the trike. Est. cost is right at 30k. I also heard (seriously) Street Glide is getting a 200 rear tire and will be available in black denim paint. We'll see.
