Harley-Davidson Tried to Give Us Nice Things We Didn't Appreciate

Harley-Davidson tried to give us some really cool motorcycles but they didn't sell well during the production run only to be discontinued. Only after these bikes were discontinued years later did they become wildly popular and highly sought after. Not only did they become wildly popular but many took other models and built clones of these long gone models. The short production runs led to fewer bikes produced which has really driven up the price on some of these bikes as the years have gone by, especially if they are low miles and good condition. These models you don't want to pass on and some of the later models you for sure want to hold on to if you own one!

@GixxerFoo

What other models did Harley-Davidson make a short run of that are highly sought after today?

@edwardsalash2612

I have a 1990 FXRT that I bought new and have 172,000 miles on that bike. I love that bike and have been offered what I paid for it. I have no intention of ever selling it.

@DocSolstice

I have a 1993 Electra Glide Sport (FLHS)... a type of bike that became popular when it was changed (upgraded) into the Road King in 1994. Absolutely reliable Evo engine, I have it for 30 years now. Years ago I bought another Harley, an Anniversary 2003 Wide Glide... awesome bike! I don´t know why Harley stopped this absolutely classic type of chopper. I believe that these choppers with the long fork will become popular again very soon. And as three Harleys are better than two I bought a Sport Glide two months ago... and you are right: perfect tourer, also sporty cruiser. :)

@Piegrandepr

I have a 21 Sport Glide. A lot of people whine about the engine being a 107, but to be honest, it is an amazing bike. Super light, nimble and very responsive. No need for a 114 given how great the bike is.

@life_behind_bars

Softail slim. Not heavily sought after yet, but they will be. They've got that post WW2 WLA bobber look, but in a modern bike. I have a 2014, and was honestly hoping to see them drop the 114 in the new bikes, but instead they dropped the model completely. I was very sorry to see it go.

Here, in Australia the night train was and still is popular.

@mikaldene7146

1977 Harley-Davidson Confederate Edition FLH. I stood next to one in a shop in Tennessee. All original down to the tires... gorgeous bike with very low miles.

@OSOFLHP

Springer soft tail has a cult following in Europe. If the right deal came along, I'd pick one up for a collectable.

@chuckmccroskey4864

I have a 1991 Flhs. Bought it new, will never sell. 150,000 miles. The best model in my opinion.

@seniorp9444

Any springers especially bad boy and cross bones. Springers are gone for good because you can’t do ABS on one 😢. The XR1000 was a cool bike that should come back as a revolution based scrambler. I loved my Night Train but don’t think it was cancelled for sales. Harley decided they would rather sell black parts for softails and didn’t want to give them away for free on the trains. I keep expecting a CVO night train someday.

@yellowjacket548

This being pretty much a Dyna video, I don't really want to mention it, but man, I really loved my 2002 Duece with a punched out and cammed out 88.

@andresapodaca8853

I have a 2011 Wide Glide. Been my dream bike since I was a kid. Snatched it up this spring for $6500 with 14,000 miles on it. I’ve put about 3,000 more on it this summer. I had a 883 and a 1200 and loved those bike, but absolutely love my Wide Glide.

@pb68slab18

A cousin of mine bought an '86 FXRS-Sp, or sport-edition. Dual-discs, air-assist narrow forks, stiffer springs and shocks, low "superbike'' bend handlebar. May have been only 1 or 2 years in the line-up. Actually handled pretty good. I helped him install a Supertrap 2 into 1, installed a cam, rejetted the carb. First Evo I ever worked on. I was very impressed with it's power and handling! I was riding a '78 Superglide Shovel at the time.

@rogerthompson5521

I hv always loved the dyna wide glide. That wide fat stance with the low profile... in my opinion nothing looks better than that

@peterrestaino7047

The shovel FLHS with the older frame was a gem

@josephfriedrich9792

The stunt bros made it very difficult to buy old dynas

@MrTPF1

I had an '04 SuperGlide with the TC88. Awesome bike! It was my daily driver, and I also drove it on a trip from SoCal to Sturgis and back in a very roundabout way. That bike ran flawlessly and didn't give me a lick of trouble.

@Rundark-

My first bike ever was a 1997 Dyna Low Rider Convertible, unbelievable handling. I kept up with a guy riding a 750 GSXR on the twisties of Hwy 14. When we got to our destination he looked at me and could not believe that everytime he looked in his mirror he could see me, lol.
