&nbsp\\;
What am I missing - last year, for 2008 model year, the CARB document for touring bikes listed ALL bikes at 490kg = 1080 pounds&nbsp\\;- maybe they weigh the crate they come in?

&nbsp\\;
2009 touring document lists all models at 500 kg

&nbsp\\;
2009 FXDSFE screamin' eagle fat bob.

I could be reading it wrong.&nbsp\\;Could the rating be gross weight? Oh well! I still bet they release a trike!
