I'm not!!! Get real ! 06 Streetglide with 3 recalls, 3 stereo replacements, broken belt, handle bars popped under tension and stripped out while riding (cracked mount), mystery nut found in the exhaust muffler, steering locked out in a parking lot and left stranded, wrong injectors installed from the factory, saddle bag fell off after never having been removed by myself (not covered by harley), shifter linkage fell apart, front brake rotor squeal,
rear swingarm bushings bad, broken front and mid engine motor mounts and all this under 5k miles of non-agressive riding. Are you serious !!! It's the first bike of probably over 90 or so that I ever had that kind of problems with. Oh and it's the first store bought harley cash on the barrel head bike I've ever bought. If it were a car we'd have some serious federal issues to deal with. Over 24k with extended warranty and taxes at the store. Their absolute junk if you ask me.

or not. As far as I can tell based on Harley's Cal carb submissions they're broadneing the range of models available with a 103 but not standardizing it as the engine for all models - so presumabthey're still gonig to charge extra . . . No doubt some bean counter noticed the Limiteds were flyiung off the shelf. Go Figure.

............ i think the LTDs were a 'beta test' to give the MoCo some actual sales data on what we'd pay for a larger engine & different options from the factory. We'll know more tomorrow !

Well, the nay sayers didn't want to believe you but I guess they'll eat crow.
The owner of our local dealership said that the 103" will be an option with all the touring models so he ordered all of his with the 103". He thinks the 96" will become a tird that nobody wants.
