Harley-Davidson Touring Road Glide Special FLTRXS 2017

Harley-Davidson Touring Road Glide Special FLTRXS 2017

The Harley-Davidson Road Glide Special is an imposing as well as pompous touring motorbike that invites you to glide and travel. If it gets tighter and more crowded, both motorbike and rider no longer feel so comfortable, which is why you should give the luxury cruiser plenty of room and run. The equipment on board is at 5* level and the comfort for all fellow passengers is correspondingly high. The large engine allows for very low revs, the enormous torque provides enough pressure in every situation. Only the high weight and the comfortable but wide seat sometimes cause problems when stopping and manoeuvring.

The Road Glide Special is good proof that it works very well to combine tradition with modernity in a very unobtrusive way. Visually, of course, the "Sharknose" catches the eye - whether you like it or not, it is unique. Inside, on the other hand, the most modern technology is installed: A combined ABS brake, traction control, LED headlights, a powerful infotainment system and the powerful 114 cubic inch (1868 cubic metres) V2 engine, which stomps so wonderfully, as it should for a Harley. The thick Murl allows very low-revving riding, and the enormous torque of 163 Newton metres delivers enough pressure in any situation. Only the high weight and the lack of reverse gear can sometimes cause problems when stopping and manoeuvring.
