Classics in the making? Harley-Davidson introduces 120th Anniversary Limited Edition Models and updates 01

This year, Harley-Davidson will be celebrating its 120th anniversary with a slew of launches and activities, beginning with the presentation of its new model line-up.

From April 22, 2023, customers can check out the 2023 Harley-Davidson fleet across all dealerships in the Philippines.

And to celebrate 120 years of craftsmanship, a Special 120th Anniversary paint will be available in different schemes and offered on six limited-production Harley-Davidson models, where the color and design combinations are inspired by early Harley-Davidson motorcycles.

Collector’s edition

Featuring one of the most intricate paint schemes ever offered by Harley-Davidson, the bikes are adorned with panels of their signature Heirloom Red applied over a base coat of Anniversary Black, each outlined with a bright red pinstripe and a hand-applied gold paint scallop with subtle details within the panels to portray the head and wings of a soaring eagle.

The Anniversary Collection includes the Street Glide Special, the Ultra Limited, the Road Glide Special, Fat Boy, Heritage Classic, and the very limited-edition, super premium CVO Road Glide Limited model.

Updates on current models

 

In addition, the Breakout model is upgraded in 2023, flexing more muscle and flashing bright new styling over its long-and-lean chopper profile. The Milwaukee-Eight 117 V-Twin engine provides the muscle, which gives the Breakout rider instant bragging rights on the street.

Enhancing the rider’s experience, the Nightster Special’s performance will be delivered by the Revolution Max 975T liquid-cooled V-Twin engine, tuned to make tremendous torque at low RPM. To minimize overall motorcycle weight, the engine is integrated into the vehicle as the central part of the chassis.

More electronic aid options

Electronic cruise control will be a standard feature for the Fat Boy, Fat Bob, Breakout, and Low Rider S models and remains standard on Low Rider ST, Heritage Classic, and Sport Glide models.

Traction Control System will be offered as a new option for the Breakout, Low Rider S, and Low Rider ST models. Traction control prevents the rear wheel from excessively spinning under acceleration, and the rider may turn traction control off using a button on the hand control.

Drop by any Harley-Davidson showroom beginning the 22nd of April to check out the legendary brand’s 2023 offering.
