Default 2010 debut delayed

Just got back from my dealer. My friend, who works there part time as a salesman, told me HD notified them today that delivery of 2010 units is being postponed 30 days. There are too many 09s still on the floor.

By my count, my dealer has 65 new 09s on the floor. Don't know how many if any still crated. Usually at this time of year he's down to less than a dozen.

I've known my source for several years now, and doubt he's blowing smoke up my rear. We will know within two weeks.

Even if they hold up delivery, if they are all that then people will just hold off buying the 10's until they show up.T.
