Got a card from Harley today. Taking a page from Ducati marketing, there are 750 Harley XR1200s up for grabs in the US, available for pre-sale from 12/1 to 12/15 08. Be the first on your block to own one.

No price mentioned.

It's a Buell XB motor in a massaged Sportster frame. The foot pegs are in the correct position and it looks a little like an XR-750, though prolly 200 lbs heavier. Previously available only in Urp, Harley has finally brought it to us, the drooling masses.

Mac and I were just talking about this Sunday morning. Now, here'tis.

Wonder how many of these will languish on the show room floor until spring??

Yupper, that and the Night Train are two of Milwaukee's finest I would put in my garage. Right after I get that F-450 dually Diesel to haul em around in!!! LOL. Seriously though as George stated, he and I were discussing bikes not sold here and I brought that one up.

I ordered mine last Saturday. Got the orange one, other colors are black and pewter denim(flat silver). I didn't even ask the price but I belive it is around $11,950

I got the same card and hope to see one "languishing" at Seattle's December bike show. Perhaps it will make up for BMW's "no show" this year.

I told you I thought it would be here sooner rather than later...

At 750 total units, these aren't going to languish:)

My buddy says sales are down most places (Yuma's are up) and they can't keep a sporter in the place. They go out soon as they get them in...

I way more wonder if we'll ever see one on the road....

We sold our orange one before it came in. We now have a black and a pewter on the floor ready to be had.

I went to a harley dealership by my work and they said the first one they have sold the first week and the next delivery is taken already. I heard the engine is sweet and and a good ride for the twisties.

sirepair, Looking at that chain on the bike (nice) brings back fond memories of my Dad's garage.
he use to have them lined up on the wall, must have been every size imaginable. I can smell it!
