Currently nothing in HD's line-up excites me much, we'll see what they come up with a few yrs from now.

Same here they seem to have discontinued all the models I am interested in, EG Standard, Road King (NOT the "Special"), Super Glide Sport, etc...

Generally not a fan of HD, however next Monday or Tuesday I will be bringing up a 2003 VRSCA-VRod from its two year slumber. I expect a dead battery, flat tires, and very likely stale high-test gasoline. I think this could be exciting. Maybe I'll ride it too.

Yeah.

With any luck, I can fire it up, and ride it provided it is not snowing. We'll see.

It is the Anniversary Edition, so alotta HD bling.

You can probably add brake fluid (careful it may be DOT 5) and coolant to flush out. Sounds like a cool bike is it yours?

You should take it for a spin, rode one at a demo day some years back, pretty quick.

I like all motorcycles, if I was filthy rich I'd have a barn full.

I bet ya they'll bring the Road King back, best bike in the Harley line up.

Get a kick out of the special, they black it out, take away the windshield, rear bag guard and front running lights then charge $2,000 more for it.
Yeh I'll pass.
Always liked the SuperGlide.
