I put a down payment on one the dealer already had coming in on 17 September.  Expected delivery date was 11 October.  I left 11 November for 5 weeks and of course the bike came in while I was away.  I picked it up yesterday even though it was 40 F which is a little on the cool side for me.

So I can confirm they are still making them and sending them out, a bit slower than expected.

My gas tank has a paint flaw (new one already ordered), and the electric heated hand grips are a bit anemic even on the highest setting.  The seat will roast chestnuts if you keep it on the highest setting for too long!

Congrats that you finally got your bike.... Nice christmas present....enjoy and ride safe!! :2vrolijk_21:

Thanks!  Not sure how I'm going to get the bike up the stairs to put under the tree though...   8)

What torque on this bike!  The dealer told me to accelerate and shift gently for a while to let the bike break in.  I almost did a wheelie in their parking lot as I pulled out.  After the first 5 traffic lights I was doing OK, but with the hydraulic clutch and the SE 110 engine I was a bit surprised at the difference from my 1998 Road Glide.
