Hey Mike,
I have not seen the Pacific Blue Pearl out in the sunlight, but it looks like a color that the sun will really pop.

Do you have to squint to look at yours when it is a sunny day?

Hey all, I inspected the 2008's with ABS closely today. They do have independent ABS for the front and rear. The front control box is in front under the tank and the rear is under one of the side covers. Evidently the new Delphi control unit is small enough that they did not have to put it in a sadd...

I just saw a news wire report: TROY, Mich. (AP) - Auto-parts maker Delphi Corp. said Wednesday it has secured a contract to supply anti-lock braking systems for two Harley-Davidson Inc. motorcycle lines. The braking systems will be available on Harley's Touring and VRSC bikes beginning with the 2008...

Dave,

Hey Gummie,

I agree, it IS about time. I love the MOCO! I have their tat on my shoulder! And the new bikes makes me a little more proud!

Good to see the "catch up" happening.

Happy camper here!

I am delighted that the MOCO is getting their "poo poo" together. Oh yes there will some miss steps along the way, but from the 2008 lineup, it looks like they are on the right track. I talked to the dealer today and have a new bike in my near future. 1 month out. Maybe I am an idot, but I...
