Default Future of TC88

I am thinking the upgrades of the TC88 with the new 6 speed trans on the 06 dyna's might mean that it will be around for a few more years. It doesn't seem like it would make sense for them to do all this work improving the motor/trans for only a year or two and only on one model. Maybe next year, if they do OK on the Dyna's, this setup on the 07 Touring bikes? Obviously, the MOCO will do what it wants, but maybe a little longer before water cooled engines on most HD's. Would love to see it with ABS on an 07 Ultra. Just dreaming. What do you think?

The 2006 Dyna 6 speed is not an overdrive, just an extra gear to shift. I want an overdrive.

I don't think it has anything to do with how long it will be around. All it has to do with is competition. A properely setup 4 speed is all anyone needs. As far as ABS gimme a break.

I dont imagine they have any plans on offing the tc88, however dont be surprised to see the big bore stock from the factory in the next couple of years.. Also as far as A.B.S. The police bikes already began running them for 05, this is why the changed brake fluid in 05 on the touring bikes also.
