2016 Harley-Davidson® FLHTCU - Electra Glide® Ultra Classic®, 2016 Harley-Davidson® Electra Glide® Ultra Classic® Get in the two-up Electra Glide® seat and there are absolutely no limits to how far you can go or how good it’s all going to feel.

With each passing mile it only gets better.

From the day the first Electra Glide® motorcycle crossed the country in 1965, it’s had a singular mission. Make the ride a cosmic leap beyond anything the rider has experienced in terms of function and comfort. So here we are countless miles later. And everything we’ve learned has been built into these Project RUSHMORE machines. One-touch saddlebags, GPS and infotainment, better airflow around the rider, more passing power, the list goes on. And we did it all with out letting the soul of the machine get lost in gadgetry. To see how far it’s all come, check out this machine that bears the Electra Glide name for 2016.

• Control

Project RUSHMORE started out as a way to re-think the venerable Harley-Davidson Touring motorcycle from fender tip to fender tip. It’s turned into a never-ending quest.

The bikes are better then ever. Project RUSHMORE control. An invitation to see how good you can be, written in Milwaukee steel.

If you’re going to live in the saddle of a top-end touring bike, you deserve better sound than most people have in their living rooms. More sound. Purer sound. Big, full-color touch screens. Switches that are located where you intuitively want them to be and can reach without removing your hands from the grips. Voice activation for your music, phone and GPS. Think of it this way. Back in the day there was nothing wrong with the sound of Johnny crackling out of a dashboard Philco. But what the latest Project RUSHMORE infotainment systems do for your ears, and eyes, is infinitely better.

• Style

With a name like Project RUSHMORE, you know we were aiming high when we set out to rethink what riders experience on our Touring machines. These weren’t just motorcycles. They’re part of the American landscape. So we set about perfectin
