I was curious if any of you guys have heard of this... i went to the closest harley store around here which isn't many and a guy told me that in 08 they are going to have to be compliant with california which will hinder the power.. i dont have a clue what kind of rules cali has but i was curious if anybody has any info or heard anything about that.. i'm figuring this guy is just trying to cob me into buying a 07 before 08s bust out.. i dunno
1 post.... hmmmm
I thought the bikes were a 50 state bike for a couple of years now
You know, the funny thing is they basically are. But the California bikes have a charcoal canister filter attached and they still have a "made for California" label. Without that label you cannot buy a bike and register it in CA until it has 7,500 miles. And if they catch you riding it without registration it is subject to forfeiture.

There's only about 3-4 counties I like to visit in CA anyway...

I have heard that there is a new model with a 2450 cc water cooled engine with over 140 hp.
Yeah, and it weighs 1200 lbs.

Laugh if you want to BUT the EPA certification sheet was leaked awhile back for a Harley-Davidsonwatercooled over 120ci(124 if I remember right)vtwin engine, watch for it in an '09 bagger! That's all I can say, but remember where you heard it first!
