Kev, have you managed to source a CR ? Why not ask the dealer if they will change the bodywork ?

If you have managed to source a black one then alternatively I may be interested in buying the side pods from you as I am starting to stockpile "consumables".

Hmmmm.......so how does that work ??..... a dealer sells you a bike for 5K with zero profit and then you want him to order in the best part of a grands worth of bodywork, so you can have the colour you like :?

.....or do you mean that they could raid their extensive stock of left over bikes and swap out the bodywork ? :lol:

I thought the dealers were making more on them now than at full retail... :?

Wasn't HD giving a 5k wedge every time one was registered?

I was told by a reliable source that there is a rebate in this country on registration...

If there was zero profit, why would all the dealers be bending over backwards to sell them :?:

There is a rebate but nothing like 5K.

There is a small group of White CR owners in UK which appear to be scattered around by HD to ensure they never see another. This is to ensure the mythical status; like the Unicorn.
Any attempts to disguise a 2009 model would end in tears and pointing with wizened fingers.

Garry Glitter tried to get people to join his gang and look what happened to him :shock:

If you do change bodywork make sure that the airbox cover is from an earlier model - without the air intake behind the gas cap. As Erik finally managed to get a decent engine into one of his most excellent chassis he did in fact make use of a ram-air effect !
