Although the Harley-Davidson Museum has been in development for nearly a year, I’ve only just come across this webcam site that continuously updates. This is cool on so many levels I can’t begin to explain.

Much like bell bottoms, if you wait long enough old styles will come back. Apparently that’s true with the Softail Custom. Harley-Davidson felt adding ‘Custom’ models to the 5 families was working well. They’ve reinstated the FXSTC Softail Custom for 2007.

The last one rolled off the assembly line back in 99. I personally have the 96 model. Great bike.

A lot of advancements have been made since 99. All in all I wouldn’t trade my bike for anything, but seeing something that pretty is bound to make anyone think twice.

The 2007 Harley-Davidson models were officially released yesterday. Man what a cool lineup. A couple of new models and some neat updates on long standing models. The biggest changes made across the board for Big Twin models are to the drivetrain. All Dyna, Softail and Touring models now have a 96 cubic inch Twin Cam. Up 8 ci or 154 cc, from the 88. They also get the 6 Speed Cruise Drive Transmission, introduced on the Dynas last year. As the world of custom motorcycles continues to get more and more radical, Willie G. does a heck of a job serving up some neat stuff from the factory.
