  1. something besides the Vision "space ship" that is. And I would expect it to come from the Victory side of things. Id expect the Indians to pretty much stay the way they are. They dont dare stray to far from the heritage.
  2. Yah I hear ya on that, I was meaning that if they tried to bring the price down to at or below HD. They have room to bring em down some. But if you start dropping them down to the low 20's or lower, dont know if it will work. Its gonna be a fine line for them thats for sure. People will start thinking, if they drop the price that far, it would be like putting Geo parts in a Caddy and calling it a Caddy. Plus a high end Screaming Eagle CVO HD Ultra must be in the 30's. I think that is the niche they will go after. It will be like the old saying "If ya have to ask how much, ya cant afford it" type thing. But I think the other thing they may do is add a model or 2 to bridge the gap between the premier high end bikes and the Cross Country. IF they do that, they'll have something.
  3. I havent read any info on it yet, but I'll bet Victory uses this as their bridge to the old school v-twin guy. The vics have arlen ness written all over them. Now they have the old school tie in. As far as price goes, that will be the line that goes way back with tradition, and tradition comes with a price. I think they will still be right up there if not more than a HD. Thats who they are aiming for anyway. If they cheapen the bikes price significantly, people will say they are taking shortcuts.
  4. Yes you may take this moment....and Yes you should be very, very proud!!!!
  5. I put Barons Bag slash's on my 08 tour deluxe. I like them, I pulled the baffles and wrapped them. It helped take some of the sharpness out of them. I like them like that. They sound good without the packing, but are a tad on the loud side for me that way.
  6. My new word for the day is Damerall. Used in a sentence..."Damerall anyway, I just heard tomorrows forecast." Another 4 to 6 inches of that white crap.
  7. I also frequent the Roadglide.Org site. I just bought one, and it is a good site as well. Lots of info, and not near as large. The threads I have been following have been good. with alot of friendly ribbing etc.
  8. You forgot to add.....free info on the best ice cream in the continental U.S.! Then again maybe this falls under the etc,etc,etc,etc, part.
  9. After 8 inches of white crap last friday, it has been snowing all day. The newspaper said that Aberdeen South Dakota has officially hit the 3rd largest amount of snowfall in history. Somewhere in the 80 inch area. Normal for us is in the 30 inch range. Needless to say Sometime here in the next week, my wife and kids will have to go stay at my folks's place. That way they can get to work/school without driving flooded highways. The kids go to school 10 miles away and the roads are gonna get alot worse before they get better. Cmon summer, cant get here quick enough!!!!!!!!
  10. Yep, crazy. Never seen anything quite like that one....
  11. They said it was coming, but the lightning,thunder and hail was a bonus. We got about 4 inches of snow. They predicted 5 to 9 inches. So that was good. North and east of me they got a foot. Didnt need that........(didnt need the 4 either)
  12. A first for me Yesterday. We had some crappy weather yesterday. It was the first time I have ever experienced rain, thunder, lightning, hail, and snow, all in the same day. Not to mention having blizzard warnings and flood warnings at the same time. South Dakota, dont like the weather, just wait a bit, it'll change..........Cmon spring, you can do it.........

    Sturgis 2011

    I'm planning on coming out. Will stay at Iron Horse again. I think I still have your number in my phone. We'll try again this year. Maybe this year we can get together somewhere. We went out to the Broken Spoke a few times. Was pretty cool out there.

    Gas Prices

    Talked to lady today who works at local station. She said they got the call to raise gas 10 cents this morning. Then this afternoon they got another call to raise another 10 cents. Imagine that............
  17. I did about 20 feet of driveway the width of a double garage door. It wasnt too bad, light and fluffy. Once the county highway dept gets out and cleans the highway. I'll bring in the big tractor and 8 foot blower.
  18. morning news says 16 1/2 inches. Time to get out the shovel.........
  19. Just watching the news. So far 10 1/2 inches. New projection up to 18 before morning.....This sucks.
  20. a friend of mine just did this.....
  21. Restoring antique tractors, and antique tractor pulling. And another for good measure is hunting. I think I even have a picture of my old moline tractor in my photos.
  22. This winter is dragging on. Had a few good weeks of nice weather. But today, it decided to be winter again. 4-12 inches forecast, with winds gusting to 35. At 1:00 p.m. today the snow was already over bumper deep on the highway going past my farm. Visibility in the country right now is about 200 feet tops. So I guess it is official, I am ready for spring........I feel a little better now!
  23. I'm at about 6' 0" and 260 pounds. I think my ideal weight for me is about 220 to 230. Looks like I got some work to do.
  24. I'm not angry with your post or anything, and I didnt mean for it to come off that way. I just cant stand this crap. To be honest even a clip of Whitney Houston was on here. Also a recording of it was played at a high school game tonight that I attended. You couldnt sing it any better than Whitney did, but i'd have loved to hear her sing it word for word the way it is supposed to be. And to be honest, after her version it opened the flood gates. I think everybody thinks, I can be remembered just like her if i do it special......
