New colors though for the RKC - bleh. If I got one today, it would either be black or silver, or MAYBE the root beer scheme - would have to see it in person. That green and blue though, not for me.
Makes you wonder what is going on with the RK standard though. I wonder if it will be around for 2012?
On certain bikes, that White Denim is awesome looking. Looks great on the SG.

Does the 103" engine come with the 96" cams like on the 2010 Ultra Limited?
If it does, which I suspect, first thing to do is to replace the cams cause the Ultra Limited doesn't run stronger than a UC with a 96". On the other hand, a 96" UC with a good set of cams runs circles around a stock UL.

I'm glad I got the Scarlet Red/vivid black Limited last year. I DO have a couple of question. It mentions locking lower fairing gloveboxes but don't show them. AND...am I correct in assuming there's a new handlebar on the '11's?
I might have to get one of the new 11's completely chrome a/c covers. Like them a bit better than the 10's

Well, I know I'll be standing in line two weeks from now at Sturgis to test drive that Road Glide Ultra.
Did anyone else notice the handle bar controls on the Road Glide Ultra must be all different? The cruise control is shown on the left handlebar, and no radio controls, which must have all been moved to the right handlebar.

I can't belive the price of those LED's either. Add the LED lighting for the tourpak and you're at almost $1000!
I can replace the headerpipes, new a/c, new mufflers, add a tuner and have it tuned for $1800....

the LED headlight is top of my list ... damn.. I can't believe there is no cheaper after-markets of those, and they are plug and play !
"Cut through the night. Harley-Davidson® LED Lamps are brighter and whiter in color and provide a superior light pattern over standard incandescent lamps. Compared to the yellow light of a traditional halogen bulb, the LED lamp produces a "Daylight Color Impression" that appears more natural to the user. Headlamps feature 2 horizontal "D" shaped lenses that focus light into a pool in front of the motorcycle, and separate high beam and low beam projector lenses that provide a focused beam of light in front. 4" LED Auxiliary Lamps feature 3 "D" shaped lenses that focus the light, and provide a matching appearance to the LED headlamps. The solid-state LEDs are designed for long life, and the shock- and vibration-resistant lamp assembly mounts into existing light housings. Installation is quick and easy, and the plug-in lamps connect to the factory headlamp wiring. No external ballast or complicated wire harness is required. The LED lamps are DOT approved for use in all 50 states. (Available September 2010.)"

I think that this is a good year. I like the new paint and that more bikes are getting 103's. The orange looks good and that red rocker, wow. Of course, there are some things that I would prefer that HD do (fatter rear tires, fx model softail other than the rocker, more cvo dynas and softails) but I feel good about this years line up.

Just bought a SE SG a couple of months ago.. though there is not too many changes to the new lineup.. there are a few things that make me wish I had waited. Lower Fairings, less guages and more speakers in the upper fairings.. and the slanted bags.. the colors look pretty damn good too.. but overall, I am still happy with my purchase and for one.. am happy the moco did not make too many changes..
