You want vivid black, it is much faster than the denim finishes.&nbsp\\; All the clear coat lets it cut through the air faster

 

I've been told there is a special&nbsp\\;Pink one called "The Pink Nighty"

 

No, it's the "Pink G-String" and talk about FAST..........

 

I get a lot of gawkings and compliments with my olive denim. Everybody loves this color. If the do stop olive, then I guess it would make our bike "rare"![8D]

 

here are all the 2009 colors maybe they'll do sumthin with that red hot denim

Well THAT'S pretty specific! The new colors sound good. Now let's see how they look! Also some colors will look different on the updated website than they look in person. Some will look better, and some will not. The Black with Pewter Pearl stripe sounds promising. We'll just have to see. What's the date on the model announcements? Last year it was July 8?

Im going to head over alittle later tonight to the dealer here on the FOB here in Baghdad...Today is the day all 2009 models are ready for order...I will see what i can find out from him...on this new 90 horse power sportster...

Maybe he has some information on it...

 

Talked to the dealer here lastnight...He had nothing on his 2009 sheet as of current with a sportster with 90 horse....he said&nbsp\\; talk on the street&nbsp\\; was...They had heard the sportster could change alittle bit...(whatever that means ) Ok change how ???

The MSRP on the Nightster jumped alittle over a grand also...

 

well, glad i bought my nightster now, rather than having waited until the 09's come out.

 

Oh, that's an interesting tidbit of info. The Sportster could "change a little bit"...and the MSRP of the Nightster increases by a grand? And '08 Sportster models stopped being manufactured a couple or so months ago? Hmmmmmm....maybe the increase in price of the Nightster&nbsp\\;is due to the huge popularity of those bikes, but a full $1K? Come on, Harley is either gambling that the market will gladly bear the increase and/or it has"changed a little bit". Harley is well known for being able to keep secrets from the public. Sometimes they hit a home run, and sometimes they strike out trying. And sometimes they are satisfied with a base hit. The economy is tanking, gas prices are outrageous with no viable solution in sight, the motorcycle industry is is in a downturn, but "economical" motorcycles are being purchased...Harley's advertising bread and butter, the Big Twin is being crunched, and I imagine Sportster sales may increase? Just speculation, but I'm thinking SOMETHING noticeable might change for at least a couple of members of the Sportster family...XR1200?&nbsp\\; That engine in a Nightster? Yeah, it's fodder for discussion all right. I'm not looking for DRASTIC changes just yet, though.
