Default Do you know all Harley models? I am not smart enough!

It took me a month to find out about Dyna, Softail and Touring.
Then I learned that Bob is Dyna and Boy is Softail. Then things got very complicated, Wide Glide is Dyna but all other Glides (narrow ones, I guess???) are Touring. Who was naming all models? Last Davidson?

There is only one harley model that really matters anyway... The Superglide. All the other names are pretty lame. Who wants to ride a fatboy. I personally don't but whatever you guys do in the privacy of your bedroom is your business.

I have taken over a decade to just learn the model names. But the alphabet soup of model designations such as FLXSEUC or whatever is well beyond me.

I do have the XLCH down pat though. Sportster Competition Hot. Yea baby!

I stopped trying to figure it out with the end of the Shovelhead era so it is easy for me.
