Conclusion - what sticks
A bit little technical info in this review, right? Exactly, but that's what the Electra Glide is all about: forget data sheets or performance data. Sit down, enjoy life, forget your worries and just go for a ride without thinking. This is possible on this machine as well as on probably no other bike.We got the test bike from Harley Davidson Kiel for this test. There are almost 100 used Harleys, so a visit to the "Harley dealer of the year 2021" is always worthwhile. And if you are interested in this Ultra Classic - click here for the sales advertisement.
