Default End of the Road Glide?

So I was in Ft Lauderdale on holidays and was talking to a fellow on a Road Glide. He informed me he worked for a dealer in the area and the Road Glide is being discontinued for 2010. Has anyone else heard this? I looked on the Harley website but found nothing. I hope this is a bad rumour.

They did that once before when it was called the Tour Glide and then brought it back by popular demand.

Not trying to start a debate here, but if they do discontinue the road glide they will not have a true touring bike. By this statement, I mean that they will not have a bike with a frame mounted fairing.

Sad but true,gone for the 2010 model year: FLTR Road Glide,FLHT Electra Glide Standard,FXSTB Night Train,FXDL Dyna Lowrider,XL883C 883 Custom,& the standard Rocker.H-D is promising several new models,my guess is at least one liquid cooled (think V-Rod) dresser.

wow, it seems like they are shedding some really popular bikes. Sad. I'm curious to see what they come out with. I think Ace is correct though and they are going to start heading in the direction of liquid cooled engines.

I thought they all were good sellers. I own a fxdl and love it, hate to see it go. I would like to see the bike sales for the last ten years on all h-d models.

I also hate to see the Road Glide go was going to be my next bike. Will see what the MOCO has to offer up. The Low Rider gone is a shame. I think the best looking in the Dyna Line.
