If riding a Harley-Davidson motorcycle is a timeless experience, then the new FLSTSB Softail Cross Bones almost makes the clock stand still. The dark Cross Bones cuts the profile of an authentic custom bobber, a stripped-down-and-chopped custom with raw finishes. Cross Bones leads with the Gloss Black Springer front end and follows with other post-war styling cues, including a Gloss-Black round air cleaner cover, sprung solo seat, half-moon rider footboards and chopped front fender. The adjustable two-position pan-style saddle rides at a height of 26.6 inches. The rider rolls arm-high gripping Gloss Black mini ape hanger handlebars. The Gloss Black oil tank features a new Willie G.-autographed skull graphic. The bright chrome straight shot exhaust with chrome slash-cut mufflers contrasts with the dark frame and powertrain.

HD-Harley Davidson FLTR Road Glide (2009) Pictures, Review and Specifications.

Identified by its “shark nose” frame-mounted fairing, the Road Glide gobbles up the highway with rakish style. Hard-shell saddlebags, electronic cruise control, and the 40-watt Advanced Audio System by Harman/Kardon are standard equipment.

The 2009 Harley-Davidson Road Glide incorporates technological improvements while retaining the classic look Harley riders want.

The 2009 Harley-Davidson Touring lineup is new from the ground up. The Dunlop D407 Multi-tread tires are a perfect match for the new black 28 spoke cast aluminum wheels. The new frame and swingarm provide a solid base for the new components and provide greater carrying capacity.

2009 FLTR Road Glide features

- New 2-1-2 exhaust system
- New engine isolation system
- New Isolated Drive System
- New 28-spoke cast aluminum wheels, 17" front and 16" rear
- New Dunlop 407 tires, 130/80-17 front and 180/65-16 rear
- ABS brakes
- 40-watt Harman/Kardon audio system with CD/AM/FM/WB/MP3

Riding Impressions

I don't ride much during rainy season, so I had some concerns about the weather before starting our ride. All such concerns soon faded away—I found the 2009 Harley-Davidson FLTR Road Glide to be stable and confidence inspiring even when riding in heavy rain and windy conditions.

The wide fixed fairing provides excellent protection from the elements. My gloves and leather jacket stayed relatively dry considering the heavy rain we encountered on San Marco Pass. I noticed very minor buffeting at high freeway speeds, not surprising given the greater distance to the tall windscreen (located farther from the rider than the fork-mounted fairings on the other models). The one-piece, two-up Road Glide Classic seat allowed me to adjust my seating position during the ride, ensuring all-day comfort.

It's hard to believe the the Road Glide weighs 820 pounds while at speed. The handlebars and grip position, combined with well-placed and easy to use controls create a natural and comfortable riding position. Steering effort is light, consistent and precise, no doubt enhanced by the Road Glide’s frame-mounted fairing.

The tires have excellent grip and at times it felt more like riding a sport-tourer. 4-piston Brembo calipers, 300mm rotors (dual front and single rear) are well matched to the Road Glide's bulk. The front and rear brakes are easy to control. I was completely at ease with the balanced handling and strong brakes.

Ground clearance on the winding back roads was never an issue even when riding at a spirited "touring" pace. This sport-bike rider enjoyed riding the 2009 Road Glide even when pushing the limits.

No doubt about it, the 2009 Harley-Davidson FLTR Road Glide is up to the challenge of all-weather long-distance touring.

MSRP: Black $18,599, Color $19,049. Options included on test bike: ABS ($795) and California Emissions ($200).

HD-Harley Davidson Tri Glide Ultra Classic (2009) Pictures, Review and Specifications.

Harley-Davidson brings original-equipment design, quality and service to the three-wheel motorcycle segment with the introduction of the 2009 Tri Glide Ultra Classic motorcycle.

One of the more popular customizations done to Harley Davidson motorcycles throughout the years, aside from pipes and jets, has always been the trike upgrade. More than the single most visually striking modification one can make to a Harley Davidson, a three-wheel modification provides stability, cargo space, and lots of capability. Gravel roads are no longer fear-inducing, pulling a trailer less prone to shimmying all over the road in a cross breeze, not to mention the ability to put all the Harley Tri Glide's power to the road for a shotgun start. The 2009 Harley Davidson Tri Glide Ultra Classic incorporates everything good about a Harley Trike, in a package that comes ready to ride right off the showroom floor. Based on the 2009 Harley Davidson Electra Glide Classic, Harley-Davidson's top-of-the-line tourer, the Harley Davidson Tri Glide Ultra Classic features 6.56 cubic feet of luggage volume, the best passenger seating on the market today, and a Harman/Kardon audio system. The 2009 Harley Davidson Tri Glide Ultra Classic has an available electric reverse gear, but riders won't want to do without it, as the Harley Tri Glide has a curb weight of 1,140 lbs. Life will just be a whole lot better if you suck it up and pony up for that reverse gear.
