Default Early Release
With all the threads about the new Road Glide and spy shots, etc. Just wait a couple more weeks and all your questions will be answered. I was at my dealer on saturday looking at a '14 Limited that will soon be a "left over" and the sales guy, who I've known for a while, told me on their docket they have 3 early release road glides coming in 2 weeks. He offered to get the paperwork to show me the delivery dates but I said "no, i believe you" because I do. Maybe I'm gullible... LOL. But, for the record, this did not come from a friend of a friend of a cousin that used to work at Harley.

That's probably ship date, not delivery date. My dealer is telling me Aug 6th ship date for a mid-Aug delivery.

What are internet forums good for if not conjecture and spreading rumors?

No, but it DID come from a "sales guy".

Same difference, right?

I'm not saying yay or nay, but I will believe it when I see it.

So far, they've announced 2 with the Road Glide and the Road Glide Special. Here's hoping the 3rd will be liquid cooled with a tourpak!
