What enhancement would you like to see Harley add to its Touring line?
I have been riding a Touring bike (2018 Road King) for just over a year (up from a Fat Boy) and my question is: what feature would you most like to see HD add to its Touring line? I will lead off with:
1. Reverse gear -- for helping get the bike out of certain parking situations. Others? |
Better suspension, better seat, and a stereo you can hear (with pipes) at 80 mph.
|
Air conditioning, and a cooling seat.

Even with 93,000 miles on an 08 road King and no belt trouble, I would like to see the belt changing process NOT require major disassembly. Oil filter change made so oil won't drip or flow onto the engine mount. I have never used the system, but screw jack rear wheel/belt adjustment looks more precise than the axle cams. Full LED lighting from the factory.

A USB port up front on the Road King. For the life of me, I don't understand why my buddies Street Bob has a USB port but my "Touring" Road King does not. A better suspension would be nice but I could imagine the price increase and I would probably be better off doing that upgrade myself to get exactly what I want.

I have been in a few circumstances where a reverse gear would have been a real help, and yes I am no spring chicken. If the Motor Company sees this, perhaps consider it as an option down the road a ways.

For me I would say larger fuel tank so I could go upwards of 400-500 miles between fill ups
i have 08 ultra that’s goes 180-200 before fill ups. I use mine to commute back and forth to work regularly 20 miles one way. So I get 4 days before needing fuel. |

I also really feel that H-D should install the WHIM as a standard item on all of the new bikes with a Boom GTS infotainment system. It is rediculous to buy a bike with more than half of the functionality of the Boom GTS not available from the get go. Including the WHIM would make more riders want to buy the dedicated H-D/Sena headsets and they would make up their lost accessory profit on the sale of the headsets. And just one more Item should be a factory installed standard for all bikes with Saddlebags. Saddle bag guard bars. This item for more than one reason. Of course , first of all to protect the saddle bags, but more importantly, a place to grab onto when lifiting a bike from a laid over position. JMHO |
