Says frame handles better, but ride is stiffer. Also says the rerouting and temp management syystem,which you can turn on and off, help. But its really just a bandaid.

Doesn't overly interest me. Not like when 07s 1st came out, then even 6 gal in 08.

Interesting article. Glad the new bikes are good ones. I am going to stick with what I have for a while at least.

Probably give the frame a year or two, to see what happens. Maybe cracks in 1/2, price of metals these days....

Buy a Shovelhead and be done with it. Then the handling is low on the priority list compared to making it reliable.

What I say, when people say, I am never gonna buy a new bike, is eventually they will have something you want. Who knows what bikes will have in 20 years. I sure they are gonna get better. For those who say no, look at history. Look at cars, bikes, sleds, tractors, things always get better with time. Maybe one or two duds on the way, but things evolve. They improve.
