Harley-Davidson has announced three new models in its continued push to appeal to a wider audience with a diverse line-up of bikes. The mid-year release of the retro Low Rider, SuperLow 1200T and Street Bob Special Edition completes the largest new-model launch in Harley-Davidson’s 110-year history and underlines the company’s accelerated, customer-led product-development process.
The Low Rider returns to the Harley-Davidson line-up after a five-year hiatus with custom cruiser styling and claimed enhanced performance.
With the introduction of the SuperLow 1200T, Harley-Davidson opens the door to a lighter touring option. Weighing in at 53.5kg less than the lightest Harley-Davidson Big Twin touring motorcycle, it is the lightest touring bike in the line-up. It features rear shock absorbers which provide easy pre-load adjustment to accommodate the weight of luggage and passenger.
The new Street Bob Special Edition (pictured), a stripped-down custom model, returns for 2014. It has a 1690cc engine, five-spoke cast wheels, and a unique two-tone paint job with graphics.
