Electra Glide Standard

Electra Glide Standard

There is an argument to be said in favor of those who think that Harley shouldn't be continuing with the M-8 107" on Touring platform models - for 2021 there appear to be four of them, with the Electra Glide Standard as an "entry level" Tourer, if there can be said to be such a thing. While Harley continues in its "hunker down" conservative approach to re-establishing a survival platform from which to build out, that policy is not likely to change any time soon - and to be fair, survival is the worthiest of business objectives, the pathway to growth described as the “Dressed down Dresser” that provides a "raw, fundamental riding experience inspired by Harley-Davidson’s Grand American Touring roots," the Electra Glide Standard is "designed for the traditional touring customer, for the rider seeking through riding to disconnect from all the noise of the day-to-day - no screens, simply a motorcycle that provides and heightens the experience of the journey. This fundamental experience is a key element in the design and engineering of the Electra Glide Standard."
