--- Quote ---There was an article in one of those industry spy magazines (CRS on the title- - sorry) in which there were  copies of paperwork (purportedly at least) filed by the MoCo with the EPA to smog certify a 2450 cc watercooled engine. Horsepower of 130 and torque of around 105 in 50 state configuration. Expected production run of 20,000 plus units for the 2007 model year. Two things to consider.1)  CARB regulatory changes due out for 08 will kill air cooled push rod motors 2)  H-D has fallen way behind in the size matters catagory. My opinion is that this motor will see it's first release in a bagger since us bagger people would welcome the boost in performace coupled with reliability, fuel mileage and rideability.

I'm not sure what HD is up to but I suspect that it's something.  All I can say is they have something up their sleeve for 07 model year!

Like any good snatch and grab team, it'll be our wallets.

Oh hell yes - but it will be a "V-4" to give the bike more torque than the current model...  [smiley=jalapeno.gif]

The TQ in my 1250 CVO V-Rod has 86 pounds of TQ, more than enough
to move a FLH around. There is also a 1550 they can use.
Sorry, but you are going to have to accept changed.
