Default 2018 Street Glide Special?

Does anyone one know what is the difference going to be on the Street Glide Specials? 2018 vs. 2017? Shall I get one now, or wait until the 2018s come out? Anyone got insider info? Thank you!

No one and I mean no one other than the Gods of Harley will be able to answer that question until they are released. Any answer you get prior to their public release is pure speculation..

Agreed. I would wait. The 2017's will come down when the 2018s' are out, so why rush it.

'18s will be better. Isn't the next/newest always better?

Wait.. Sales are slow on the 17's, when the 18's are out you can see the differences and make a choice, 17's will be cheaper and plentiful for a while...at least here in the Midwest.

My pure speculation is, there will be little difference in the 18's. They just redesigned some and added the m8 in 17. The only differences i can imagine would some colors and maybe a little price increase

Your only about a month out before knowing for sure. I'd wait, they won't run out of 17's before then and then you should be able to save a little on one of those.

Possibly only difference will be that some of the bugs will be addressed.
