Harley didn’t spill all the beans when they announced the new models back in August. The more to come included the just announced 2018 Sport Glide that converts in moments from a light weight touring machine to a leaner cruising bike. The new offering which would replace models like the Switchback gets the all new softail frame and the Milwaukee-Eight 107 engine. The touring components consist of rear hard bags and more stylishly significant, a removable small fairing in the front that mimics the look of the big touring bikes- which more than one rider will wonder whether it fits other models. Other goodies include an inverted front fork and an adjustable rear mono-shock, LED lighting, ABS and keyless ignition. The Canadian MSRP for the black bike comes in at $22,299 with colour option being $22,749
