I think the one in the pic (same year and color, too) is still the best handling Harley I've ridden, but to be honest, I've never been on a twin cam. I've had some older riders tell me I'll say the same if I ever do ride a twin cam. I still check ads occasionally for an RT, but just haven't found one for a price I'd pay. Ever do get one, it'll probably be an abused FXR I can build the engine in, and make it an RT with aftermarket plastic.

Factory 111... I'd go with an S&S 107 first.

That's more or less what I did with this FXLR. I never got around to putting a fairing on it & I probably wont as the windshield is effective & doesn't buffet my helmet. I really have grown to like this bike.....

That's very presumptuous. They trade marked the name again, they made no mention as to what frame it would be on.

I think that's the point..we're enjoying speculating. Could be a VRod model for all we know.
