The last truly "new" bike HD introduced was the V-rod. Everything else has been upgrades, tweaks, cosmetic changes to existing bikes/platforms. I'm sure whatever they might introduce on June 3 will be in the latter category. By the way, as a Road King owner I'm mighty fond of the old school. But it is what it is.

Maybe a new bike to the museum, not a new HD release bike. Any new models won't be introduced until the dealer meeting.

It's a theme bike, built by OCC called the Ghost Glide.

It shows how the MOCO is now a ghost of the company it was just a few short years ago.

New bike is the XR1200X for 2011. It sports adjustable Showa suspension front and rear, rearset pegs, bigger 4-pot dual front discs, and other tidbits.
