2011 Bikes
#21
Yeah, I'm disappointed. There are two Road Glides and a "super low" Sportster, and that's it for new bikes. I thought maybe they'd give an engine option if you ordered your bike, or SOMETHING different. I'm not sure this is the time for them to pull in their horns so totally. Not much excitement for 2011.
Most bikes can have a street legal 103.

Wow...the HD 2011's a not so unexpected BIG YAWN. It looks like the Softail Custom has gone away...again, sure to be back in a few years with a higher price tag and less chrome. Still scratching my head about the rear cylinder kill to control temperature!?...LOL....and still no factory oil coolers. Maybe with some luck HD will break the 100 cubic inch barrier in the (mass) production models by 2012 or 2013.
It looks like for 2011 the Victory bikes have ALL gone to the 106 cubic inch engine, 66% less drive line lash and eliminated primary gear whine with louder stock exhausts due to less gear noise... "The quieter transmission has also allowed us to increase the exhaust's noise level, making stock bikes sound better yet still pass the federally mandated sound limit".

THere's no engine option on the RKC. They all come with the 103 and ABS standard this year. I'm feeling a lot like there's an Apple Green/Black one in my immediate future!
