Harley Davidson FXRD Sports Glide Grand Touring (1986)
The Harley-Davidson FXRD Sports Glide Grand Touring: a bike that embodies the perfect blend of power, style and touring prowess. For 1986, Harley-Davidson took their iconic Sportster platform to new heights with this model, which boasted a powerful 1340cc V-twin engine.
This powerhouse of an engine delivered a robust 60hp, providing the kind of effortless acceleration that lets riders focus on carving up twisty roads rather than worrying about getting off the mark. On the road, the Sports Glide’s handling is nothing short of exceptional, with its low centre of gravity and responsive steering making it a joy to ride.
Whether you’re tackling the open highway or exploring back roads, this Harley-Davidson has got the goods to deliver an unforgettable riding experience – one that combines the freedom of the open road with the comfort and amenities of a true grand touring machine.
