Marketing geniuses!
« on: February 10, 2011, 05:14:07 PM »
          I love Harley's as much as anyone on this site but I am amazed that HD can add a color choice and introduce it as a new model; ie: 2011.5 FLTCUSE6 ( WOW ) !!! No new features, no new sheet metal/fiberglass, no new graphics. Certainly a nice bike but 11.5 you have got to be kidding. I guess you have to give credit to HD marketing. Can't wait to see the 2011.75 FLTRUSE.

Well, at least this time they didn't jack the price up another grand for the .5 color (I don't think so anyway).  I figure the 2011.75 will be the flat black Krylon version.

 All I know is that the MoCo has really bent me over the barrel twice now. Last year I ordered a Blue SEUC and right before delivery the Black SEUC was introduced. I wanted the Black SEUC but was not willing to give the dealer $40,000 for a Black SEUC. Now, I had a gentelman interested in buying my Blue SEUC, because he loves Blue bikes. After the Mid year release of the 11 Blue SEUC. I'm so frustrated I could Scream!!!! I can't seem to catch a break from the MoCo. I's like to kick them in the knee and see how they like it.

I agree with a good swift kick, but a little higher than the knees!
