It was replaced by the Rocker. The Deuce is a great looking bike, one of my favorites. But when you could get a Softail Standard for thousands less,the sales of Deuce's dropped way off.At the shop we sold maybe3 a year.

The rear fender killed the Duece, put a different one on and the bike is the best looking one Harley made.

Poor sales, it's all about supply and demand. I also agree with the rear fender comment.

Dropped because of poor sales. The Rocker was introduced to use up the surplus supply for Deuce gas tanks !!

Poor sales is the only reason Harley would discontinue a model.I also agree that the rear fender could have been improved.

The rear fender is what makes that bike. Lower it a couple of inches and not even custom choppers hold a candle to it-as far as looks are concerned.
