It's an option on softails, I would think it's coming to the touring line up...What do you guys think?

I think it will either happen or not. Speculation is not of much value.

The CVOs vine with the 114. But, you can't just order anybtouring bike with the 114 only.

The touring line sells well. I would imagine the MOCO put the 114 option in the softails as a way to entice people to buy them. The 114 will most likely be an available option at some point but I don't know that it will be standard

If they do all of that for the touring line, I might trade in.

I could see an advantage in a mechanical reverse, but what is the need for a 114? My '17 Road Glide "Rolling Sofa" has way more power than the handling will stand.
I imagine that Harley could open a burial insurance company along with the increased horsepower and speed.
