I'll hold final analysis until I see them in person, but viewing the website none of the colors really jump out at me. Seem to be sort of bland. :nixweiss:

Ditto on the colors here too. I am digging the Brembos with ABS tho.  :2vrolijk_21:

Same here as far as colors...... ABS is SWEET. !  :2vrolijk_21:
Not to quick to even jump on that. The MoCo doesn't have a great track record on first year introduction of upgrades. :nervous:

Man, they have some butt ugly colors this year! Those SERKs don't do anything for me. The brakes look like VRod brakes. ABS would be nice. Who's gonna see what we have to do to retrofit it to our CVO's? ::)  Ride by wire's not for me. They changed the A/C cover to the ugly football one. All in all, I'm not impressed. I wonder if they did anything to improve these engines? They seem to plod along, with their heads in the sand, and just come up with more shiny stuff to mask the real issues. I gotta believe that the '07 SERK will be my last new HD! ;) Hoist! 8)

Can anybody tell where the abs is installed?  Does it still consume 1/2 a saddlebag ?
Very uninspiring SE lineup...from a Roadgliders point of view.

Not yet, but will find out ASAP.  Anyone got part #'s for those Brembos yet?

Wife & I just looked through the CVO lineup.

Colors on the website on the RK & SEultra leave much to be desired.  Figure they look better in person.

Brembo brakes & ABS - great idea but wonder about space?

I have Brembo brakes on a 2006 Russian bike [a Ural], which except for the brakes and electronics is made the same way it was in 1939.  The Brembos, at least on the Ural, are better than what was there before but not much. The addition of the name has been a big selling point for the company. Point being, wait to see if it's a real upgrade or just another example of a brand name being added to extract more $$$$.

I guess I'm disappointed!

All of the bikes look fine but what happened to the 2 year run of each model.

OH I forget! It's all about the money!

3 year run on the Ultra S/E?

Wait, there's a trash can, let just throw tradition in that and make more money!

Although the real tourpak looks great, it's still an Ultra!

Well maybe now someone will turn loose of their 03 Silver and Black dresser!

There's always hope! :(
