With the elimination of the Road King Standard and the Electra Glide Standard, there are no bikes in the Touring category that interest me.
Tube tires are a no-go for me. With no polished cast wheel option on the Heritage Classic, I'd have a hard time forking over $20K for one of those.
Not impressive. Wouldn't mind a RKS and to be honest I would rather have the M8 now that the bugs are worked out than be the beta tester on the Rev max
The price of the Sportster is so high that you might as well just get a Street Bob .
And if they could just put forward controls and some floorboards on the Lowrider ST ( Sports Tour ) they could sell me a bike .

Sad to see the basic Road King go.. (If there's no basic Road King, what makes the 2023 Road King special)? Would have been nice for them to keep it until 2024. The RK would have been 30 years old then. They could have retired it as an anniversary model.
I see the 107 is still around. (There was some speculation that it would be dropped leaving the 114 as the basic motor). And, not surprisingly the stupid surcharges still exist.
Wow, you can buy a Softail Standard or a Street Bob for the same price as a "Sportster".
And the rest of the lineup is just sort of... meh. Nothing really tickles me about any of them. Not saying theyre ugly or anything, just nothing exciting anymore.
