A nekkid “summer” bike.

Got my Street Glide all set up for a tall rider, seat, bars, boards, windshield, deflectors, all extended for comfort and wind/buffeting management to cruise at any highway speed.

Now just need a little more wind for back/road speeds and shorter jaunts, ergo, a summer bike.

Wish I knew. For now no one builds exactly what I want. I need to replace my Street Glide so hopefully HD comes up with a nice touring bike on the new motor platform. We'll see.

I'm dream-building a new Harley touring rig that has:

- Wet weight around 700 lbs
- High quality adjustable monoshock suspension with at least 4 in. of travel at both ends
- At least 125 hp/tq in stock form with true liquid cooling
- Power adjustable windscreen
- Improved nav/infotainment system with TPMS standard
- And last but not least, some fresh new color options

All for around $25k. Would you buy my new dream machine?

21 Street Bob 114. Just waiting for my deployment to be over with so I can get the wife on one for a test ride. Not sure if I want the orange or black and orange combo.

I might do it someday, even if it is just to get the sport bike urge out of my system and experience the stupid fast acceleration and nimble handling, then sell it after a few years. (Or not). But as long as I am able to ride I will always have a Harley.
I started on a CBR600 F4i then bought an 07 Dyna Superglide then a CBR1000RR. The liter bike is definitely in a class of its own. It is absolutely incredible.

But I still love riding my Dyna and 600 as well. I can imagine the Road Glide handles incredibly well at 65 mph+ due to the frame fixed fairing.

This is my NEXT bike. I had/have a triumph, but I've wanted a Harley for 30 years. Which one has changed over time (age). The last few years I've settled on a road king. The heritage fits me perfect, but I wanted the touring chassis. I ended up with this. It's my perfect one. Everything fits right. It's less of an "in" feel than the heritage, but it's bars make it all work out pretty well.
