It is indeed a new model; just saw the brochure at the dealer.  In Harley parlance:


Overhead valve big twin (F)
High compression (L)
Oceanic (O)
Heavy duty (H)
Touring (T)
Electric start (E)
Rubber mounted engine(R)


or, the FLOHTER.

I'd LOVE to tell the owner that his bike looks like a Gold Wing (similar to how he'd tell me my bike looks like a Buell).

Moral of the story should be, if a 120lb Harley rider ever ask you to stand downhill, above water to push his 1200lb motorcycle up a very steep incline covered with vegetation.  Don't do it.  It's a trick! 
Now if a 120 member Harley gang surrond you and "ask", your probably gonna end up in the water anyway, so push like a mother F.....!

Yes, they don't float very well, that's why we call 'em "boat anchors"
