Default Touring frames
A friend who is in the market for a Harley sat on my RK and thought it was too small for him (he’s very tall). He said he wants a bike with a bigger frame. Maybe I’m wrong but I think all the touring models are built on the same frame. What makes them feel different is the seat, bars etc. Do all the touring models have the same frame or do the different models use different frames? Just curious.

Thanks
