I agree with stratplexi. They might offer a water cooled bagger down the road, but there is always going to be air cooled motor. From what I have heard, the air cooled motors are able to pass 2010 EPA standards now. That is one of the reasons they went to EFI. &nbsp\\;

Give it up fellas....the Motor Co. is not going to DESTROY itself with water cooled motors no matter what YOU MAY THINK. \\\\\\;
Oh, Ok. As long as YOU say so, it must be. Never mind then. BTW, for the record, I DONT think it will happen tues. I think it MAY happen later during the year. Oh, thats right, YOU said it wont. Never mind.

I&nbsp\\;think it will happen, thats a given, but I dont think they will ever completely get rid of the air cooled line.

Here is another rumor I picked up on... The exhaust will be routed different due to the excessive heat problem. If this is true... The aftermarket companies will not have any exhaust up grades available for some time. Which sucks in my opinion. I am planning on buying a new SG, but I can't stand running a stock exhaust system. I change that on any new bike I purchase before it leaves the dealership. Always some thing, isn't it. lol&nbsp\\; So, the&nbsp\\; MOCO isn't fixing&nbsp\\; the heat problem they are relocating it. Again, if this rumor is correct. lol

Here's my prediction: I bet the return of the Road King Custom will complete the "Blacked Out" line of bikes... Night Train, Fat Bob, Cross Bones, Nightster, etc.

...I've been to two world's fair and a rodeo....

My guess is the three biggies will be a road glide trike, a blacked out RK and some sort of "Heritage" Ultra

That would be cool!&nbsp\\; I am also interested in the new Road King Heritage.&nbsp\\; I guess it might be a springer roadking with studded saddle bags and seat?&nbsp\\; I guess we will know soon.
