Hmm, after looking the new bike over, it appears that the inside information I had wasn't all that bad after all. Old bags came back and more options/add-ons for the new bike. Now if they would only do that for the newer Nomad and Voyager.

I don't think the Mark IV big block came out until 1965. You might consider the 409 a big blog, but it was a dead end.
