This is the only true classic in motorcycling. And like its four-wheel
counterparts, the Jaguar, Mercedes or Rolls, it seldom changes dramat-
ically. Nothing is added just to be new. Yet every edition of Electra Glide is
loaded with subtle improvements. In 1968, for example, the kick pedal has
disappeared completely. The new oil pump has an increased capacity, pro-
viding more efficient lubrication. The clutch is modified for smoother,
easier operation; instrumentation is re-styled; and the tank has a smart
pebbled finish and bold striping. Each of these changes is the result of
never-ending, nit-picky perfectionism. We call it plus-engineering. You’ll
call it great. See the 1968 Electra Glide at the Harley-Davidson dealer near
you. The Harley-Davidson Motor Co., Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53201.
