Harley-Davidson's profilation of this bike
Look at the big windshield and nostalgic headlamp and you see a strong resemblance to the original King of the Highway. You could get lost for a good, long time just looking at the classic styling details. What you might not notice is how far it’s all come. You now have 103 cubic inches of High Output power. Dual halogen headlights. One-touch saddlebags. Reflex™ linked brakes with ABS. And plenty more where that came from. Let yourself go.
