Hi guys! Anyone heard if there is major changes coming on the touring models for 2022 like a new frame to compete with the Indian frame and suspension? I am looking at adding a bike for two up riding since my wifes back cant handle riding on the Aprilia. I would hate to buy something right now if a better frame is planned for next year

Given HD's history - it's VERY unlikely that the M8 will be replaced any time soon.
Rev-Max might augment it on the sides but the M8 has years to go before the development/tooling costs are covered. I would guess any future frame changes to the touring line would happen at the same time as the RM gets introduced as a replacement, not augmentation. Be a ways away yet.

I bought a 2016 RGS in Spring of 2016 - a few months before the M8 was premiered. Did I regret it?
NO!!
I just traded this year for a host of reasons. I absolutely loved riding my "old" twin cam; as the last year for them, I experienced a trouble-free 38,000 miles with plenty of smiles per mile. No sumping, no transferring, no dripping, leaking, or burning.
Now the M8 has had a lot of the bumps ironed out - no more transfer, no more sumping.
Waiting for next year is a fools errand. When you have the coin, buy and enjoy.
