Default Model name?

HD had a Electra Glide model that came with the spring solo seat ( similar to the police seats ) and the bottom of the windshields were the color of the bike, blue or red. What was that model named?

Harley revived the older Electra Glides you speak of in 2021 with the Revival, but that had the white fairing. In 2023 Harley came out with the RK version called the Electra Glide Highway King below. 2024 had the Heritage Classic version called Hydra-Glide Revival.

Someone can confirm, but the 1950s and 1960s versions were the Hydra-Glides and Duo Glides, respectively.
