I love my '07, (and my '04 F-250) BUT, if money was no object, I'd be looking at an '09 Harley AND Ford! However, since money DOES matter, I don't see anything that really, um, IMPRESSES ME! No big deal, same old stuff! Um, right???
I'm not trading...I'm going to buy another!! \\; Ultra this time. \\; I'm going to \\;give my 07 SG to the wife...

Yeah, I'm very impressed with the changes this year. \\; Love the tires and the smoothed out frame etc.

Just curious, if a new frame, tires, more storage and coller engine aren't enough to impress folks, then short of a liquid cooled engine, what would impress you? I think those are the biggest changes to a touring bike since the early 80s.
Is that stock, or do you have to bring it in to the dealer to have something done so it will do that? I knew the '08's had the ability, but I thought the service shop had to change/implement something to get it to work.
I'm wondering if the new frame was \\;designed to allow room for liquid cooling and maybe released early to allow for more mule testing?
