I'd like to see something all-new and innovative from H-D. I hope they are learning from GM. They can only milk an image for so long before people get wise. A liquid cooled V-4 that makes 200 HP stock would be nice, something I can actually be proud of innovation wise as an American, not something half American and half Italian. Wake up H-D.

(typically better for performance worse for comfort) perhaps a short stroked sportster engine w/ ducati heads should be the focus of the ducati and a ducati bottom end w/ TC88 heads should be the focus of harley? i really think your on to something here..
