Let's face it, Victory is on it's way out . BD and MM are the only two "die hard" fans they have.

Should have been in Spirit Lake, IA this past Friday and Saturday. Victory's as far as the eye could see. Lots of Hardley riders there checking them out also.

After all the years HD has been fighting the fed's I knew they would have to change,, Seen the water cooled design's for years,, They started playing with water cooled back in the 70's I believe, Code name was NOVA if memory serve's me right.. Good to see HD is catching up with the time's sad to see the old design starting to fall away!

Beside the lower's They also looked at installing the radiator somewhere behind the motor. I cannt find the drawing I had but will keep looking
