Interestingly, many of these discontinued bikes are some of my personal favorites. I owned two V-Rods back in the day (as a young buck in my 20s), always loved the Deuce, XBones, Dynas, Road King Standard...

The one that gets me is the Deluxe. I will admit, they screwed up with those space ship lights
and ruining the tombstone tail light on the new ones, but that was a popular model (pre 18)

The T-Sport is hardly even mentioned in many HD "history" books. I enjoyed mine

Same with the Dyna Wide Glide I ordered in '93, I haven't seen a bike yet that I would trade it for.
