What hasn't the moco targeted yet?  That's where you hosers should place your bets...

Call me crazy (altogether now...your'e crazy!) I'm thinking .....Trike.   

Yup, three wheels for those who couldn't otherwise stay upright. 

And it is mostly the silver-haired audience that has the bucks to be able to afford the extra beans that it costs to convert two wheels into three wheels.   The price of gas alone will tempt many a senior or handicapped rider into making such a purchase.  Gotta admit....some of the Lehman conversions are nice looking.

Totally agree that the long time riders will go to 3 wheels if need be........but, the MOCO already has side hacks for sale.    spyder

What about the delays HD had due to decrease in motorcycle purchases in the recent year. The yuppie generation is geating older.
 It is true what hasn't HD targeted, I wonder why Spring clothing is in cammo this year. Living in Carlisle I see many HD trucks on I-81. Many of them travel in Cammo decor. It would be nice for a trike let some, unfortunate, vets feel the freedom to ride.
We will just have to keep our eyes and ears open. It will be interesting to see what they have in store.

This would certainly be my idea if I had any sway over what H-D sells. The 110 platform is a total piece of chit and I've yet to hear of anyone who did a 113 upgrade being disappointed. A Screamin Eagle Street Glide (FLHXSEI) makes perfect sense given the popularity of that model.

That being said, H-D is probably a million miles from the above. Lately H-D Inc seems to have forgotten that their customers have a brain and they are bent on putting the company back to where it was in in the AMF days.

Until there's a street legal version of the 113, that will never happen. And when there is, it'll probably be a POS too! But the 110 is absolutely not a POS platform. The HD parts they use are!!!

Hoist!

Semantic distinction without a difference.  As Harley put it on the street it's been a major PIA to way too money.  Anything could be better; if it was better.  You just cast the magic runes and changed yours from a POS to a NLaPOS  .

OK, I'll bite?

Don, all HD engines are P'sOS these days. The 110 is a bored out 96. Hot rod them with that garbage crank and see how long it'll go! Granted they way underengineered the top end of the 110. But HD's heydays are behind them now. Get one while you can. This platform is destined for the history books!!! And you can fix any of them properly. After all, THIS AIN'T ROCKET SCIENCE!!!

Cycle City here in Oahu has had three different Leeman trike conversion H-D's on the floor. They didn't sell well, I believe they went with the wrong bikes to trike out. One was a 1200 Sportster, one Softtail Springer, and one Dyna wide glide. I ask the Sales manager why they didn't do a touring model instead of the other models, and in true Harley fashion he gave me the "deer in the headlights look" But I heard over a year ago Harley had purchased at least a majority if not the whole Leeman trike company. So who know with the average age of the new Harley owner raising every decade.

and I was thinking it was us young bucks that kept it in our pants, so that we could stay single and fancy free where the ones with the disponsable income....

IMHO I think the Mo Co should be push the nostalgic line to the younger crowd....

I wonder what bikes will be CVO in 2009.  Last year about this time we started seeing some EPA sheets that turned out to be exactly what the CVO 2008's would be.

I can not remember how we got the info. 

Any thoughts??  I wonder if they will do a Ultra AGAIN

I think someone in this thread said "no", but I may also have CRS on the subject.
