Default Sport Glide coming back
For those that actually like to read about other motorcycles. Motorcycle.com states that Harley has filed a trademark for Sport Glide. The article below references that.

So does that mean a Switchback with a SOA Fairing? What are your thoughts?

I had the pleasure of riding a fxrt-p for several years in the early 90's. Best Harley I ever had.

I like it. Then again, I also like the Switchback and can't believe Harley can't give them away.

I demo rode an FXRT back in 1985 at a rally, thought then was a nice bike, would love to see one with the power of the 103cid motor.

Maybe the first bike with a new FX* frame? FXD has been around a few years.

FXR frame is fugly. HD needs to build a Dyna that handles like an FXR, but has the look of modern chassis. Also, have dual rotors up front. And don't use those flappy Switchback bags!
