new warrenty is 500 miles or 6 months and if you don't have the dealer ship wash it it voids the warrenty &nbsp\\;

I'd have to see the (10) gallon tank to beleive it. That's a big tank not to mention-7.5 LBS per gallon. That's 75 LBS of weight to carry. Whew.

&nbsp\\;Street Glide is getting a 200 rear tire and will be available in black denim paint. We'll see.

200 rear! That would be cool!

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...

&nbsp\\;
Whats wrong with Lehman? From what I know they are top quality machines. Give us Canadians some credit for somethin' will ya!

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.

I haven't heard that and I doubt it'll be the case. There's no reason for HD to dramatically modify the SG which is one of their best sellers as it is today and I don't think the market requires a 200 tire on a Touring Bike. I could see a 160 tire being offered but not a 200. Serious mods would have to be made to the swingarm, to align the tranny, put a wider fender, a wider wheel,&nbsp\\; etc.............. That's typical custom work on a bagger, and there are several vendors of wide tire kits who offer it already.

What I heard though, from a friend who's Sales Manager at a dealership here, is that there's a serious chance that HD offers a Screaming Eagle Street Glide in 2009. That, I can see cause it makes sense.
