Default Super Glide

What was the first year Harley put the EVO on the Super Glide? I was told '86, but I found some documentation leading me to believe it may be 84.
I was also told that Harley produced 2 style of Super Glides that year. The early one was chain driven and the later was belt.
Can anyone clear this up?

FXRs were Shovelheads in 82-83. 84 was the first year they ran Evo motors, if that's what you're asking.

I thought the first superglide was 1971 FX Super Glide...the same colours as the 06. White, with, red,white &blue accents....

but talking evo era era it would have been 1991 w/ introduction to the dyna. Sturgis, Daytona models.....anything before that with an evo would be FXR’s.

Apparently 86 is the first year for an EVO in a model called a FXR Super Glide. The 84-85 EVO FXR didn't have a model called a Super Glide

...If your trying to get that specific
