RE: DISCONTINUING OF MODELS IN 2008
I can't believe this thread has lasted this long. It was a BS post, it was posted in every section of HDF. Who ever posted it thought it was funny and we're all here discussing "is it true"[sm=insomnia.gif][sm=insomnia.gif]
Come on, are we really that bored...............well okay, maybe we are, but that's besides the point
.
If it helps, I've already ordered off of the color charts, nonothing is being discontinued (except for the rumor of "one" model and that is still just a rumor). There are new colors, there is probably no new motor, no water cooled bike, no touring VRod(and I say probably because we really don't find out until the dealer show). The one bike that may be discontinued is actually still on the color chart list.
Last year in April we were told there were changes for 07, but we weren't told what. The day we found out was in July at the dealer show and you guys found out the same day, because Harley changed their website at the same time. They plan this very well and they don't make mistakes. They do not want us leaking information to anyone,sothe minute we find out, they have everything ready tochange the websites, start the advertising, etc.

Yes this thread is still alive because people like you can't believe the truth, Harley WILL kill off these bikes! It's a done deal! I spent 4 hrs. today ordering new '08 motorcycle for July, August and Sept. delivery and those models are not included. BUT look for some big changes for some other models!

Dear employees of my dealership, I have attempted to make a go of a very profitable bussiness with idiots and have now found I can't afford to stock those models for the upcoming riding season.
Unless things turn around soon, you all should be asking for applications at McDonalds.

Thanks g money............and Jovimon you were right (hey, I'll admit when I'm wrong). Now my question is, why have we not gotten this information up here in Canada yet? I mean, yes we run a month behind the U.S. when it comes to model year (we get our models in late August, you get yours in July), but we've already ordered bikes for 2008 and there has been no mention of this. As some of you know, we don't deal directly with Harley, but with Deeley's (the Canadian distributor for Harley, for those that don't know) out of Vancouver. Deeley's is notoriously tight lipped, but this is ridiculous, like I said, we’ve already ordered bikes. Some of these bikes will be collectors items for sure, get them while you can.

Of course the XL50 won't be offered in 08. Then it would'nt be 50 years old . Would it?
