The newest Harley-Davidson motorcycles rolled into town for their debut.
A semi-trailer full of the new 2007 models arrived at Topeka Harley-Davidson Friday morning.
Those who came out to Demo Days got to test ride the new models, which is quite a treat for Harley enthusiasts because the new models are usually unveiled in Sturgis, South Dakota at a later date.
"The Harley Davidson Demo fleet, you had to apply for it many, many months in advance to get it and we just lucked out and happened to get it on some of the hottest days of the Kansas weather,” said Ray Moorehead, Harley Davidson of Topeka.
If you didn't get a chance to test ride the new models on Friday, the event continues Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Keep an eye on Topeka's weather with the 49 ABC News Sky Cam.
