Wait the 2008 is going to have a radiator. You think I'm kidding just wait it's coming sooner then you think.

H20 in the 08s is the hot rumor,time will tell,not sure how well it will go over w/the older HD crowd?But the 07s may have been the final straw for the aircooling.

sounds like you already got a nice scoot for the summer, why not wait for 08 to be the first on the block to have on....if you didn't have a nice ride already i would say not to wait but.......

I would say get the 07....But what if they come out with the 2008 Screamin Eagle Street Glide....110CID.....I think that would be a cool bike to own...Hum the 08's come out in early August...you could still get the 07, at a reduced price once the 08 come out (if you can find one) Tough one IMHO.

Glad I have my 07 Street Glide No decision to make

everything that i've read says that hd can surpass the epa requirements until 2010 with air cooling. so i anticipate that 2011 will have radiators, and i will have my final bike payment shortly thereafter and continue to ride my 07 until MY wheels fall off (i guess those would be called feet )

I'm sure we'll see more VRod models. Hopefully they'll have a touring bike. Maybe it would be a future platform for a Police model. I'm sure that the powers that be inHD Landwill find some way around EPA and keep air cooled models around for a long time.
For touring CVO models, I'd like to see the SG & the RG for 08.
