Old thread, but the smoothest bikes are the ones with the aftermarket shocks
on them.

I've rented EG Classics, Street Glides, both batwings that were affected by the winds and semi turbulence. Bought a Road Glide Ultra, to some that big ole fairing my be fugly but its very stable at highway speeds with the truck turbulence and windy situations.

Any one of those if you download the Vigilante tuning program. It has made my 13 Dyna Street Bob TC96 and 14 Road King 103 HO TC the smoothest idling and running HD that I have ever had.

Just came back from 2014 Biketoberfest in Daytona and test rode the new 2015 Indian Roadmaster. This is one smooth riding bike. I know this is an H-D forum..

Really. First thing I noticed and wonder why it was resurrected. Anyway the Road Glide gets my vote. Mine is gone but hope to get another. Have ridden all the bikes in the touring line and the Road Glide is the best traveler especially on the long haul.
