Jens,

You MUST not tease us!!! Us unfortunate Yanks don't have access to that machinery!

I would love to see a spec class - as in the old 883 series.

nice...

That's gorgeous and wonderful. So you are telling me that bike was purchased by a customer from Harley-Davison?

If so . . . wonderful. It looks like the one (with the Ohlins shocks added) that they've been trolling in a number of countries.

Hi Slaughter,

I heard that the bike comes in autumn into the US Shops and will be available in 2009. That conversion from the stock bike is just an exhaust, some fiberglas, 2 discs and a set of Öhlins...

I think HD and the AMA cant miss that chance!

ALL YOU GOOD LUCK FOR DAYTONA!

Jens

-Court you will find it out...

Dear Harley-

There is a really cool race held in Springfield Illinois 2 times a year, you may have heard of it as they have been run for at least a decade... You might want to display the prototype XR1200 there and see what the reaction is.
Oh, and if you do please let everyone there know that the Middle East will get this bike before we do - if we ever do. That should be fun to watch.

Is Harley trying to follow the Japanese Big 4? They always offer the cool models in Europe! Is it a price thing? Current exchange rates would put the ~7900 GBP at $16,000.

Wonder how long it will take for Navy brass to figure out why the returning supply ships are heavier then when they left ;)

(the answer is they will probably work it out shortly after *their* bikes are safely in their garages... : ) )
