...no I'd never do that to a perfectly good beer. Those are wine coolers from the early eighty's and have been out of production for many years. I just used them to demonstate how disappointed I am about the 110's being carried over for another year when they can't get rid of the ones in the showroom now. Glad to see the RG make the list again though. I'll be happy to keep my 00 for a little while longer and maybe put a Jim's in it. Doc
I don't believe the reason they have CVO's sitting on the showroom floor are because of the 110's...IMO. I think it's just a sign of the times, with the economy being the way it is right now. Motorcycles are considered a luxury item and is one of the first things to be given up when times get rough. Look at the showroom floors at the dealerships. They almost have as many MC's on the floor now, in the peak riding season, as they did in the winter and spring. A couple of years ago, you wouldn't see any motorcycles (maybe a couple of sporties or v-rods) on the showroom floor this close to the introduction of the new models. In fact, only two seasons ago, one of the local dealers was saying "screw the MoCo, and selling his next year models he already had received, before the annual dealer's meeting, so that he'd have bikes to sell. Now that same dealer is offering deals on the over-stock of 08's that he has. Most people don't know anything about the potential issues with the 110's. I'm very happy with my 110 and love the bike, and even knowing what I do about it, I'd buy another one, without hesitation.
