The October issue of Motorcyclist magazine has a test on the '85 Harley Davidson "Tour Glide Classic," aka FLTC, which they conclude is a pretty decent machine. The part of the article that I found most interesting is the wet [sic] weight comparison of the FLTC with three Japanese tourers, e.g., 1985 1984 1984 1984 HD Kawasaki Honda Yamaha FLTC ZN1300 GL1200A XVZ12D Wet weight 772 918 790 810 (lb) As you can see, the HD is: 15.9% lighter than the Kawasaki, 2.3% lighter than the Honda, and 4.7% lighter than the Yamaha. My, how things change! Dan O'Connell ihnp4!{bonnie,clyde,floyd}!danoc
