The Super Glide's return after 55 years has a romance to it just from hearing the news. And the way it's timed to the nation's 250th anniversary — that layering of story is a beautiful touch. I love these moments where a motorcycle rises up as a symbol of a country or an era. The specialness of a serialized 2,500-unit limited run becomes part of the owner's own story. It's the history it carries, not the numbers or specs, that's the real feast here.

What made the Super Glide so revolutionary? I want to know its place in the lineup at the time.

It's the original factory custom, combining a tourer's front end with a sportbike's rear.

Limited editions tend to command premium prices right after launch, so buying one takes some resolve.

Feels like "here comes another reissue play" — there was a similar buzz around the Knucklehead anniversary model too.

Other manufacturers do reissues too — isn't it just that there's demand, so it works as a business?

Limiting it to 2,500 numbered units to match the 250th anniversary of the founding is a stylish touch.

55 years since the original 1971 Super Glide — that was the original FX, wasn't it.
