Per wikipedia:
I do not think that it is a Trike version of the street glide because the trike designation is the "tg" at the end of the model name. A trike version of the street glide would be FLHXTG.
The first two letters "FL" classify the bike as touring.
X has been used in the past do designate the following:
- It has been used to denote a model within the revolution bikes.
- It has been used to denote small telescopic forks with softails and dynas.
- It has been used for models with a 19 to 21 inch wheel with no floorboards.
I am not making any claim as to what the new model will be but think that looking at what HD has done in the past might give us a clue.

I think there has been more speculation on what's coming in 2010 than when Jesus is coming back...(of course sarcasm).
Not as much in this thread but there have been multiple posts on the speculation of the V-Road aka Road Rod being unattractive as a bagger due to the "2up" situation. However, I wonder how many Baggers are out there that don't do much 2up stuff?
I for one can't get my wife on the back of the bike for nuttin'. I would PREFER she had her own bike if she wanted to ride. I would love for her to participate in this adventure one way or another with me but she's not interested in either. Further, she is afraid that we will both get creamed at the same time leaving our children orphans. So....it's likely she may go around the block and that's about it.
So..why do I have a Bagger? I want someplace to put my stuff! In addition, I like fairings and the tunes that are in them. If money was easily available, I would consider a Road Road in a heartbeat.

The beginning of my post said "per wikipedia." And actually FL is a combination of F which stands for big twin motor and L which is used to denote wheel size. An example of this given is
- Softail models that use Springer forks with a 21-inch (530 mm) wheel have designations that begin with FXSTS, e.g., FXSTS (Springer Softail) and FXSTSB (Bad Boy).
- Softail models that use Springer forks with a 16-inch (410 mm) wheel have designations that begin with FLSTS, e.g., FLSTSC (Springer Classic) and FLSTSB (Cross Bones).
