HARLEY-DAVIDSON REVEALS POWERFUL NEW GRAND AMERICAN TOURING, CRUISER AND CVO MOTORCYCLES
New models highlight the thrilling performance of Milwaukee-Eight 117 V-twin
Harley-Davidson adds performance and factory-custom style to its 2022 motorcycle line with the reveal of eight new models, each powered by the Milwaukee-Eight® 117, the most-powerful factory-installed engine offered by Harley-Davidson. New models include the Street Glide® ST and Road Glide® ST in the Grand American Touring line, the more powerful Low Rider® S, and the new Low Rider ST® Cruiser models, and four super-premium models from Harley-Davidson® Custom Vehicle Operations™ (CVO™).
“As part of our focus on stronghold segments, including Grand American Touring and Cruiser, the 2022 product line is designed for power and performance. Each of these new models feature the unrivalled power of the Milwaukee-Eight 117, for those riders who want nothing but the biggest and the best, building on our position as the most desirable motorcycle brand in the world,” said Jochen Zeitz, Chairman, President and CEO, Harley-Davidson.
Street Glide® ST & Road Glide® ST
Harley-Davidson elevates ‘bagger’ performance and brings the purposeful style of the championship winning “MotoAmerica King of the Baggers” race bikes to the street with the introduction of the Street Glide ST and Road Glide ST models. These hot rod baggers combine the V-twin muscle of the Milwaukee-Eight 117 powertrain with new dark and bronze finishes.
For riders who want to strafe corners in comfort, the ST models feature the complete suite of Harley-Davidson Grand American Touring features including Reflex™ linked Brembo® brakes with ABS, Boom!™ Box GTS infotainment system with colour touchscreen and navigation, cruise control and Daymaker® LED headlamps.
The Street Glide ST features the iconic Harley-Davidson batwing fairing, while the Road Glide ST rolls with an aerodynamic frame-mounted sharknose fairing with dual headlamps.
Low Rider® S and Low Rider® ST Models
The Low Rider S and new Low Rider ST models offer the taut handling performance of the Harley-Davidson® Softail® chassis and the V-twin muscle of a Milwaukee-Eight® 117 powertrain.
Brad Richards, Harley-Davidson Vice President of Design: “Our customers truly inspire us and the Low Rider ST was born from seeing the incredible builds at motorcycle shows around the world. We took the iconic Motor Company design from the Eighties and gave it a new identity with a modern echo. Add the Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine, taller suspension and raised saddlebags and the Low Rider ST delivers both a dynamic visual package as well as a dramatic performance punch.”
The Low Rider S model is a performance cruiser kingpin designed for the rider seeking unapologetic power. The new Low Rider ST model offers the versatility of hard panniers and a new frame-mounted fairing, plus an available Harley-Davidson® Audio system powered by Rockford Fosgate®.
