Calling the Road Glide® model just another touring bike is like calling Mount Rushmore just another piece of rock. One look at the profile tells you this one’s different. Beginning up front with the frame-mounted shark-nose fairing with cockpit-style instrumentation, twin headlights and a swept-back windshield. The styling is aerodynamic—there’s nothing sleeker on the road. Moving back, there are broad-stripe graphics, a flowing seat, angled bags and slash-cut mufflers. It all gives new meaning to the word “streamlined.” You also get cruise control and 40-watts-per-channel, 4-speaker AM/FM/CD sound. But the best tunes come from the silver and chrome Twin Cam 88® powertrain. Twist the throttle and you’ll see there’s no other touring bike—and no other feeling—like this on earth.

FLTRI Road Glide® Model Overview*
The FLTRI Road Glide®, with its newly discovered strong following from long-time Harley owners and Californians, gets a significant upgrade in 2004. Playing off the Screaming Eagle® Road Glide Models of the past, the Road Glide has adapted a slashing silver theme this year along with a new, streamlined look. Growth in the Road Glide model has outpaced the growth of the Touring family three years in a row, and this trend should continue in MY 2, with these exciting changes. The Road Glide offers excellent touring comfort and performance along with unique, long and low styling. The wrap-around cockpit style instrument cluster adds to the feeling that the Road Glide rider is in command. Additionally, the AM/FM/CD sound system provides high quality digital music for the road and electronic cruise control makes highway miles effortless.
