It's been around since 1979, so a facelift might be in order!

That's not out of the question. With a 124" Centennial+10 or CX of course....

I just don't see the water cooled thing workin for Harley.

We may not have a choice there. I think a VROD motor in a bagger would be great. HD has to shrink it's physical size down a bit. It's too big.

So we bypass the 2012 rumors and go straight for the 2013's?

Hell, it won't matter anyway.
We'll all be dead on 12/21/12!

The 2013 models WILL be water cooled. The coolant will pass through the handle bars and seat on its way to the radiators (yes, there will be THREE of them) to keep the rider's hands and butt warm in cold weather. There will be an outside temp sensor that controls a shutoff valve so the coolant will bypass those regions on warmer days.
