introduces essential new element
Chiseled V-Rod Muscle Presents a Fresh Power-Cruiser
Physique
Harley-Davidson puts an all-new chassis under its
popular Touring models for 2009, redesigned from the
tyres up for enhanced handling, load capacity and
comfort. The five 2009 Touring models ride like new
motorcycles, but the iconic styling of each has been
carefully preserved.
The Motor Company also makes news in the power cruiser
category, as the athletic lines and large volume dual
exhaust of the new V-Rod Muscle (available in Europe
in late 2008) takes the VRSC line in a new styling
direction. Two other models, the Dyna Street Bob and
the Heritage Softail Classic, receive a significant
styling make-over for 2009.
Recently launched in Europe in Spring 2008, the
new XR 1200 combines great street performance with
purposeful motorcycling style and presence, and is
the first Harley-Davidson® motorcycle which has
been designed specifically to meet the needs of European
customers on European roads. The bike’s original
inspiration draws from the success of the legendary
XR750 flat track racer. However, the XR 1200’s
ergonomics, components, handling and performance characteristics
have been designed for the street, resulting in a
performance oriented Roadster motorcycle that is built
for the twists and turns of European roads.
Touring Highlights
“Under the skin, our 2009 Touring models are
essentially new motorcycles,” said Matthew Knott,
European PR & Media Communications Manager. “There
is likely no profile on the road more distinctive
than that of a Harley-Davidson Touring motorcycle,
and we were able to retain the character of each model
while significantly improving the riding experience
in many ways. With a new V-Rod Muscle model and other
technical and styling updates, every Harley-Davidson
motorcycle looks to the future while recognising our
heritage.”
Forged of steel and torque, backed by millions of
miles and a century of experience, Harley-Davidson
motorcycles exert an irresistible force to move forward.
Equally dedicated to innovation and heritage, Harley-Davidson
fuels the rider’s passion with machines, and
a motorcycling experience, that simply cannot be duplicated.
Highlights of the 2009 Harley-Davidson line-up
include:
- Five Touring models rolling on a new chassis
that combines a new frame, swingarm, wheels and
tyres, plus revised exhaust and engine mounting.
The results include sharper handling, more luggage
capacity and passenger room, enhanced heat management
and increased rear tyre life.
- Toned and brawny, the V-Rod Muscle brings urban
energy to the VRSC power cruiser platform. A large
volume dual exhaust system, a clipped-and-clean
rear end, and a broad-shouldered look courtesy of
gaping air scoops are a perfect match for the high-revving
power of the 1250 Revolution V-Twin engine.
- With styling and livery inspired by the legendary
Harley-Davidson XR750 flat track racer, the XR 1200
has wide, black handlebars for dirt track looks
and superb control, with semi-rearset footrests
for excellent cornering clearance. It has sport
tuned Showa suspension including 43mm inverted front
forks, powerful Nissin brakes, downdraft fuel injection
and lightweight cast wheels with a Flat Track inspired
3-spoke design, finished in black.
- The Dyna Street Bob gets a fresh dose of retro
bobber attitude, with a newly clipped rear fender,
blacked-out powertrain and a tail light reminiscent
of an old school garage custom.
- Only Harley-Davidson would dare to change near-perfection
and Harley-Davidson stylists have worked with great
care to update the Heritage Softail Classic. Taller
handlebars and a “cat’s eye” console
are just two of the new features on this popular
and nostalgic custom touring motorcycle.
- The Harley-Davidson Custom Vehicle Operations
(CVO) crew turns its inspiration loose on two new
limited-production models for 2009, the CVO Fat
Bob and the CVO Road Glide, each powered by the
Screamin’ Eagle Twin Cam 110 engine and turned
out in bright chrome, big paint and wild new accessories.
The CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide and CVO Softail
Springer make an
- encore appearance in 2009.
- All Sportster models have recalibrated suspension
and improved damping for improved ride quality.
- All Sportster and FX models have a new front
fender that better matches the radius of the front
tyre, closing the gap between fender and tyre for
a cleaner look.
