Default 6 models being dropped for next year.
Was at the local dealer today and was told they are dropping 6 models from the lineup next year. Both roadgides, road king classic, blackline, a 1200 sportster ( the racing one from a poster),and I think the other was the Electra Glide Classic. Not sure why they are going away but I thought I would pass it along.

Roadglides are no go for 2014. Back in 2015. The rest are gone for 2014 but not sure for 2015.

There is no way they are dropping the RKC. Maybe the standard...

Wouldn't mind seeing the road glide go. I think it is the uglyest thing ever. The rest would suck though.

Let's see, HD's best selling line is the touring bikes, so they drop half the line? I don't see it happening...........even if MikeK87 is right about the RG
