There's just no incentive for me to buy new. Other than the m8 (which is really cool) it's the same old bikes, frames, transmission, fenders, and names. I just purchased a new metric bagger that's high tech, handles extremely well and has loads of power stock. Harley use to come out with really cool new models every year now it's just the same old same with special at the end. I guess that's cool for some but I'm fine with what I have for the foreseeable future.

 

No more as in I will not own more than two at a time ever again. I have my 1996 FB that I will never part with.
The 2017 RGU will be here a year or two then another one will replace it.

 

Jeebuz! What.....do the settings range from "Princess and the Pea mode" to "Just right Porridge"?

Mine didn't have any of that and it rode like a dream. If it's an option I would forego it. Just something more to fix. Or just buy an older bike that doesn't have it.

 

Boxer engines were 100,000 milers in the late 60's. I worked at a BMW dealership in the early 70's and we never cracked a case. Closest dealer is in Grand Rapids, Mi. I might have to take a road trip.

 

How many times did you lube splines in 100k?

 

X3

15 is an absolute max for me

 

I'm waiting for a Deluxe S, or a re-issue NightTrain.(Which I'm sure they'll screw up like they did the WideGlide in '07)

 

sweet. it is too much. no way I would pay that much for a new bike.
I think ya'll should definitely go buy something else.


more for me.

 

I already have 3 Harleys. That's enough for me....

 

I really don't know the answer to that 72. I worked in parts at the time so I didn't deal with the everyday maintenance of the bikes. I do know I never picked pistons and engine bearings and that was over a 2 year period. But if it's made by man it will break. But I was quite impressed while talking to the head mechanic and that was 45 years ago.
