The liquid cooled motor is not speculation!!!!! I have a friend that works in the Final Assembly Plant. He told me there was a liquid cooled motor and they were having problems. He did mention the STREET GLIDE!!! He would tell me nothing else PERIOD!!!! He would not tell me if the problems were in the assembly of the unit or with the running unit. He also would not let me know anything about anything CVO!!!

Tomorrow is the day we can all start bitching!!!!!

You know Mike would never give up the secrets he was sworn to!

I bet tomorrow morning all the people that are "in the know" will finally be able to breathe a sigh of relief from people begging for info. But then again, I'm sure that's a yearly thing for them.

As long as you don't mind only riding when it rains, Harleys have always been "water" cooled.  What's the big deal?

The SG Special is listed in the CARB sheets with the rest of the touring bikes with the higher emissions numbers, so it probably isn't liquid cooling on that bike. Only the CVO Ultra Limited, the Ultra Limited, and the Ultra Limited Shrine edition are on the separate lower emissions sheet.

I wonder if it's liquid cooling, CANBUS, or a combination of the two that is producing the lower emissions number on the Limiteds? It would be weird for them to finally come out with CANBUS for the touring bikes - but only on the Limiteds.

We will all find out soon!

That is a good point Jerry.  Sometimes I have been water cooled at the same time, and there was nothing special about it.   

Given Harley's track record on reliability of new intros, if you are riding a new liquid cooled bike, there is a good chance both you & the bike could be randomly liquid cooled, depending on how big the leak (s?) is?.

I don't want to get the guy fired. He said WATER COOLED!!!! He also said problems with the Street Glide. He did not say the Street Glide was water cooled. He never told me the problems with the Street Glide. He never placed the WATER COOLED and the STREET GLIDE together. We will know tomorrow which models are water cooled. For me I could care less. I am not buying a new bike this year. Hell I just got one and can't even ride it right now.

SOOOOOOOO I wonder how many people on the site are watching HD's web site through the night?

Things are getting out of hand here with the speculation. I know a guy who knows a gal who dates a guy who has a son who knows how to spell Harly Davidsun. He says, and I say this with complete confidence, that Harley is coming out with a water cooler. It will hold 5 1/2 gallons of water and will be able to be used in any businness. There will be a set of chrome (or black if you choose) accessories that will allow you to mount this water cooler to your motorcicle, thereby giving you a Harley Davidson with a water cooler.

You can now all quit speculating on just what the carb sheet tea leaves foretell.

Exactly! I already have my Harley Davidson water cooler on pre-order. Keep in mind, the spy photo below was of an earlier 3 gallon prototype model, but you can see the eagle wings and barely make out the name. Of course, I am really hoping they make a chrome model. I realize black is the new fad but nothing beats chrome!

It's easy to see how flashy these will look mounted on either a touring bike, bagger, or bar hopper.

I'm guessing the spigot will leak for at least the first two model years and you can tell they still hadn't figured what type of hinges to use for the lid.

I like this kind of water cooling. Is that a limited on the left And look at those lowers on the right

Just to fair,




I would have to say: I would ride anyone of those, watercooled or not

I did hear that, Modine mfg. Racine , WI. has been awarded the contract for Harley Radiators.
I don't know if it is water or oil. Would make a few phone calls but why. We will all find out in a few hours anyway.
