Looks like all the 2014 touring models except the Road King are going to have a hydraulic clutch as standard equipment.
With all the hub bub about the twin cooled engine I figured most folks missed this clutch thing.

 

I had that on my 08 Goldwing it was nice no cable to mess with.

 

I believe operation Rushmore was a direct counter attack against the new Indians. HD knew they had to make a lot of improvements quickly to stay competitive.

 

Project Rushmore to add more to the sticker price!!!

 

Hydro clutch is nice. My old VTX had it and it's one of the things I preferred about that bike over my Streetglide.

 

It will be good to get rid of that cable.

 

I had a hydraulic clutch on my '04 EGU and loved it! It's on my list of upgrades for my '12 RGU.

 

Got the hydraulic clutch on both CVOs. It's such a great improvement over the cable operated clutches.

I'm honestly surprised it's taken this long to become standard. Hopefully the other HD models see this improvement too in the next couple MY's.

 

Hi guys FYI bought this machine new last week grat back ben on the road for 45 years 1st bike with HDY clutch last night started the bike and waited behind some friends getting ready to take off my bike then started moving forward the RPMs whenup a lttle like a gonernor i locked the bike up and it continued to push my buddies bbike about 5 ft on it side with my front locked up and skidding the bike down the sidewalk i layed the bike over hoping the inertia switch would shut it down it did but my buddy got hurt from skidding on the sidwalk this machine just decided to leave and the breakes were all locked up the breaks did no hold this 103 pictures show 5ft skid pushong a bike on it side be vary wary if this new hdy clutch in goes to the sope tommarow.

 

Right, just like in 2000 or so when Indian was released and stole so much of the market share....
