From most things that I have read over the years, the Dyna is all ways been the test model. Just a thought, but wouldn't we see the Dyna come out a water cooled bike first?

Its all speculation but I don't I don't think liquid cooling would work well in a motor thats not very smooth running. The circulation would be disturbed it seems. At least when idling... all the good ones so far are balanced and rubber mounted like the Vulcans and Yamahas. Then harley had the Nova that never was produced but I read it was a good motor. But who knows.....now speaking of Dynas, I would like to have an 07 Wide Glide as a second bike..they just speak easy to me.

that's not a tank it's an air filter box =D

If you didn't see anything that did it for ya, then nothing wrong with waiting. I personal opinion is the line with thin down, with a re-birth of a Tour Glide (haven't heard that before huh ?), and a few adjustments of things here and there.

However, they always manage to do something to create a "Darn, I should've waited !"

Yep. It sure is amazing how the top secret is held. the salesman lie and say they don't know till dealer meeting which is total bs. but don't ask me how I know.
