Less than a month before the annual summer dealership meeting,
Harley-Davidson Inc. has announced it's ending production of the Road Glide, at
least for now.
Harley says it wants to take some time and refresh that bike, which has been
around for about 15 years, and it very well could be returned to the lineup. The
company says the two Road Glide models have been strong sellers but represent a
relatively small portion of touring bike sales.
Will you miss the Road Glide? What would you like to see in a new
version?
Industry analyst Tim Conder, with Wells Fargo Securities, told Powersports
Business he expects Harley to introduce a new touring bike at the dealership
meeting, bigger engines for the Dyna family, and a new bike to replace the Buell
Blast that was used in the Rider's Edge program.
What changes would you like to see in Harley-Davidson's 2014 motorcycles?
