Ahh, I don't see the Night Train in the 2010 models. WTF?? I'm going to have to stop by a dealer and see what they say about it.

The v-rod really is the perfect ex-rocket guy that wants a HD but with hot rod/speed and agressive seating. They can be moded to EAT other bikes. Closest competition would probably be the new V-Max.

Confirmed. No Night Train for 2010. I have enough saved to buy a Sporty, but don't really want one of those. Was only going to do it for the "ride for a year and get MSRP for the bike when you trade it in..." deal. Oh well, I'll just keep saving until I can afford what I really want! Summer's almost over anyway, so it's not like I'd be riding that much this year before putting the bike away.
