Reincarnation of Tour Glide?
Last year heard rumors HD was coming out with a Road Glide Ultra? Kind of a reincarnation of the older Tour Glide. So I passed on a new RG waiting for the RG Ultra which was supposed to be released this month.

Rumor. The 2010 RG went the lowered Street Glide look. I dont think the MOCO will make a mid year change to the lineup with the economy the way it is.
But thats just my opinion and with HD its always rumor until it hits the dealer show or dealer floor

I surely do hope that it comes out this winter. I have a good friend that has a '95 (I think it is) Tour Glide, and he has been hoping for a new one for YEARS now. He's still holding out for a new "Road Glide Ultra"!

XARAN - I didn't think of it as a mide year change rather an addition to the line...hmm
Funky - Didn't know of the dealer's meeting Saturday. Thanks
Will - So it will be called "Road Glide Ultra"?

Ken - I may have to build one BUT it would cost about $2500.00 than the package deal (based on the price of the Ultra)
JW - Thanks but that's a RG. The "RG Ultra" is supposed to have lowers, trunk etc.

That's a Road Glide Custom - a Street Glide with a shark-nosed fairing - and was introduced at the beginning of the 2010 model year. The Road Glide Ultra would be an Ultra with the shark-nosed fairing.
