I noticed that the CVO Street Glide is now coming with a twin cooled 110.

Wonder if there might be an optional twin cooled 103, for the non CVO version, in it's future?

Maybe the standard bike comes with air cooling only, while the special has the radiators.

 

In their present design for any of them to be "twin cooled", they need to have lower fairings to house the radiators.

Not sure how many would actually want the lower fairings on a Street Glide or Road Glide.
You start losing the "custom" look of the Street Glide when you start making those changes.

 

I wonder a lot of things, but speculation is not productive. Buy now, or.... not.

 

I am usually not a Luddite (look it up if you are under 35 or ain't into book learnin'). Give me electric start, tubeless tires, fuel injection, hydraulic clutches, CANbus electronics, linked ABS, throttle by wire and Bluetooth any day of the week.... but I have no desire to buy a water cooled Harley until they offer an engine designed from scratch as water cooled and not some bolt on half azzed afterthought of a radiator.

 

Then this is right up your alley!

It's not a water cooled engine!!

 

Due to the ever increasing regulations of the EPA and trying to build engines to comply, I think all Harleys will eventually become liquid or twin cooled, just as Porsche had to do with the 911.

 

This what?

 

The Twin CooledŽ Harley.

It's the same engine, with small cooling ports around the exhaust valves.

It does have 1.1 quarts of coolant, but is by no stretch a water cooled engine.

 

I think you misunderstood what he was saying.

They call it twin cooling, but in reality it is tri cooling... air/oil/liquid

I think he was saying a complete liquid cooled engine designed from scratch and not the twin cooling they came up with.

 

No I got what he was saying.

And there is no oil cooler, so Twin Cooling is where it lies.
