Well said!

Also keep in mind that despite what may be happening around you, the economy is very weak. It's going to get lean come the winter months....wait and see.

 

totally agree, it may be sooner than winter though. I like the blue color myself also.

 

I got a Harley in the first place because it looks like a Harley. That was 45 years ago. My "newest" bike is a RKC and it looks very much like the first Harley I ever had. It was a 63 FLH. I happen to like that a brand spanking new RK or other models for that matter, look very much like they always have. A new Sportster looks very much like a old Sporty. A new Softie looks very much like a old Softie. I'm even thrilled about the color choices because they still offer vivid black. I don't need a total redo. All I look for is modest, yet needed improvement. The 103, etc. The current improvements have already been listed, but the newest models have big enough improvements to satisfy me.

 

I got a piece of crap when I waited for the new '09's to come out. I could hardly wait and it turned out to be nothing but trouble and it was suppose to be the best thing since Jennifer Aniston in her birthday suit.

I wouldn't be to upset if H-D finally decided to stop trying something new at the exspense of their customers.

 

The only disapointment was no springers.

 

I think I've read this same complaint every year except '09 when they changed the frame. I'm glad they leave well enough alone.

 

Well at least the **** swoosh is gone from the Heritage

 

I dunno...show me another tee shirt company that makes bikes that good.

And as far as HD holding back all the good stuff for the anniversary editions, I'll give you two words: dura cell.

 

Great response, I agree, can't change everything every year, one of the reasons I love having a Harley, I don't have to buy a new bike every year to look current.

 

Not to worry!
Big changes coming in 2013.
I got inside info on the touring models: 200ci water cooled inline four cylinder motor with 2 speed automatic transmission, scooter style running boards/fairing,Victory style rear fender with huge tail light and gps/dvd player.
