Hey Buzz!!!

I know that magazines get the scoop early so the new stuff can be on the stands when it is announced. So tell me, is this the 2009 Harley? The engine looks to be a 45 degree instead of 42 degrees.;-)

No idea what that is. Where did you get this photo?

I have already ridden some of the new 2009 Harleys, and none of them look like this one. Not at all.

If the bar & shield was not on the gas tank (could be photo shopped) I'd guess that was a Yamaha.

Curious what the story is about this bike and photo.

Looks like the Yammi to me also. A guy at work has a 2005. Ugliest bike I ever saw. The Ford Fairlane dash just kills me. He likes it though.

OK, so what it is?

Nothing like it on the Harley web site for 2009 models.
