Can't believe my search for input on the new V-Rod motor'scame up empty! (I know, everybody's outridin')

I test rode it twice 2 weeks ago-you notice the diffrence down low.If I was buying a new v-rod I would get the 08 for sure-even if the 07 are going cheap.

I could not find a 07 anywhere. I did find a bunch of used ones for more than MSRP. I am waiting for the 08 because of the engine size and that slipper clutch I am use to using.
