Default 2007, or 2008
I am thinking of purchasing a 2007 Street Bob this summer, sometime around June. I am considering waiting for the 2008 models to come out in August though. Does anyone know what kind of changes Harley usually makes to there bikes, and what kind of change can I expect to see from a 07 model to a 08 model. Do you think it will be worth the wait to pass up half of the summer for? Anyways let me know what you think. Thanks.

Welcome from central California. With the 6 speed transmission in 05 and the 96" engine for 06 I bet we only see paint changes for 08...

Welcome to the forum.

I too doubt that there will be any big changes between the 07-08 model years. Buy this years model.

Glad to see you here.

Welcome from the middle of Kansas. With your purchase being so close to the new model year, you may want to wait. If you don't see any changes that you like maybe you can get a price break on a '07.

I agree.....or wait a lil bit, & try to get a great deal on a 07 when they roll out the 08's, if ya can wait that long. Welcome to the HDF from Va.
