Some of the rumours turned out to be very true - like the new Rocker and optional ABS on the touring models:

I added the TMW link as we have photos and information you won't find at H-D about the models thanks to our press/media affiliation. :D

That Rocker is a sweet looking bike! I have to have one, now how do I convince the little lady?

Well I have to admit, it's nice a bike.

But this "little lady" won't be convinced, as hubby is really a sport bike guy - he keeps talking about his Ducati, Yamaha R1.

Plus where would I sit?? I don't think my little Honda could keep up!

:youwish:

I dig the Fat Bob.. except for the little fender on that fat front tire.

I don't get it.

Rabbit,
Touring:
Again no big changes with only one model being removed from the touring family, the Road King Custom
.

While not as BIG a change, it is a big change from HD standards. The gas tank is 6 gallons instead of 5. Touring HD's have traditionally been 5 gallons since Christ was a corporal.

So now its 96 inches,6 speed,counter balanced twin cam w/ 6 gallon gas tank. :smoke:

Where was the rocker when I was 25, 25 years ago? :frusty:

Don't forget the closed loop EFI, Brembo brakes with ABS and a fly-by-wire throttle.

Gummiente,

I think you pay extra for the brembro brakes or their only on the FLHTCUI something like that.

The Brembos are standard on all FLH series for '08, it's the ABS option that you have to pay extra for.
