Just wondering how many would buy a liquid cooled H-D touring bike and why? Or anyone with reasons why they would not buy a liquid cooled H-D touring bike?


I would have to stay with air cooled, I like the way the motor looks and I really don't see a need for liquid cooled where I live (Wisconsin).

 

Had one liquid cooled cruiser, a Yamaha Royal Star, not a bad bike, but the cooling system was the most difficult part to maintain. Think I would give up riding before I would go back to liquid cooling.

 

If I could get the Harley look and sound, feel and more power. Then I would not have an issue with a liquid cooled Harley.

 

I don't think I would buy a liquid cooled bike. When my bike gets old I will either rebuild the motor or buy one from some rub that has like 400 miles on it in 1o years.

 

It's going to happen sooner then most of us want it too - EPA 2010

Since I live on the Gulf Coast, I would definitely consider a liquid-cooled touring bike. Riding in the summertime down here is almost unbearable. However, HD would have to come up with a better product than the Revolution engine. If I wanted a high-rev bike, I'd buy a metric.

 

Yup.

I'll still keep an old bike around, but it won't stop me from adding one.

 

Like Ezzzz I'll probably keep my current bike (95 Ultra) DOn't necessarily want a Twinkie but if they did water cooled with Harley sound and a crapload of power, I'd get one in a heart beat. Summer in the south is particularly taxing on an engine and the rider because of the extra heat. I'd get one but only if they up the HP.

I'd buy one if it stood up to the same standards as the Glide series for handling/comfort and balance.
