in this video we're going to go over the new 2023 Harley-Davidson models the 120th anniversary 120 years of making motorbikes that's a long time isn't it um so we're going to go over the new models some of the new features that are on offer and go into details about all the bikes and there's one bike there in particular I just absolutely adore so we'll come to that in a second okay so let's put these on otherwise I won't be able to read anything so for the model 23 yeah there will be six Main Line 120th anniversary models each with an alpha code ending in anv for at noversary you've got the ultra limited anniversary with a production limited to 1 300 examples globally and that's the case with all of these bikes they're all Global maximums the tri-glide ultra anniversary 1100 bikes the Street Glide Special anniversary black trim 1600 the Road Glide Special anniversary black trim 1600 examples Fatboy 114 anniversary with 3 000 examples and the Heritage Classic 114 anniversary chrome trim with 1700 examples in addition to the six Mainline models there's a single CVO model which will be offered in January in a different 120th anniversary finish scheme and we'll go into that bike in some detail in a minute now on the cruiser models in the year 23 lineup they have electronic cruise control as standard and that will be on the fat boy Fat Bob breakout Low Rider s and a carryover feature for the low rider St Heritage Classic and Sport Glide models now the good thing about cruise control is if you're on a long ride you just set the speed and you can relax your throttle hand because after a while you just get that cramp because you're in one position all the time so that's a great thing to have also it will have traction control which is straight line traction control and not the cornering uh enhanced one available for breakout Low Rider s and low rider St models you can turn it off as well with a button so if you you know with all that talk sometimes you need it now with the carry over Cruiser models um they're unchanged for model 23 year except for some new colors so go to Harley-Davidson website in your country and just look at the different colors there's some beautiful colors the Heritage Classic is now offered only with laced Wheels which is in my opinion correct because those beautiful laces or spoked wheels a right for a classic bike and they do look beautiful so that's a good thing and the Heritage Classic comes in loads of different colors now so there's there's one for everybody there's tons of chrome if you want it there's blacked out finishes and colored ones so there's something for everyone there the street bob is offered with laced and cast aluminum wheel options so you've got two choices the Softail Standard model which some people thought was going to be discontinued still carries on with the 107 engine and that's the bike that Darcy's got and he loves his one that has a new tank graphic and you can only get that now with the cast aluminum wheels so Darcy's one comes with the latest wheels or the spoked wheels uh again we love spokes as we said but they look alright with these aluminum wheels as well so it gives you something different now for me the gem of the whole 23 lineup is the new Harley-Davidson Breakout it comes now with the 117 cubic inch engine as standard and that is a game changer it's absolutely fantastic and I know that because I review the low ride s117 last year and that was our bike of the year it was just out of this world so with that engine the breakout is up another level and not only that a very interesting thing you now have an 18.9 liter fuel tank and the previous one was 13.25 liters and that just gives you that little bit more range and that just brings the bike into much more usability for longer rides and all that sort of thing so that is super the breakout has 101 horsepower at 4750 RPM and it produces a peak of 123 foot-pounds of torque or 167 newton meters at three and a half thousand RPM but with the Harley engines you feel huge amounts of torque at very low RPM and that's what they're all about now you've got a new handlebar Riser on this which is 19 millimeters taller than the previous model for improved Rider reach to the controls a restyled seat shaped to accommodate the larger fuel tank and that features a new Chrome Medallion new fuel tank graphics with a sweeping scup beautiful looking bike so at the front you've got a 49 millimeter fork with dual bending valve technology and a 34 degree rake a rear Monoshock which is the same on all the soft tails and you have an external knob uh for tool-free hydraulic preload adjustment which you can do any time of night so if you've got a passenger coming on you can crank it up a little bit as I said as I said in the intro new standard cruise control new available traction control system high performance Michelin scorcher 11 tires uh signature LED headlamps and they're very good lights USB charging point a digital Tech gauge instrumentation inset in The Handlebar which you basically almost can't see so it's very minimalistic um of course normally I like analog dials but on these sort of bikes that still looks nice because it's just so minimalistic it's not a silly TFT screen or anything like that colors that's the important bit what colors does it come in it comes in Vivid black denim Baja Orange is the correct pronunciation an atlas silver and it is a beautiful looking bike so for me this is the one I can't wait to test ride and hopefully we'll be able to review that bike as soon as one lands in the UK because that is something that really interests me now the price for the breakout in Vivid black is 24 195 pounds and the color versions are 24 635 pounds before we get on to the new night stuff let's go back to the 120th anniversary special models ah try not to burn let's go excuse me no you have uh the base color on all the models is heirloom red the panels are outlined with a bright red pinstripe and filled with a darker midnight Crimson fade and they look absolutely stunning the panel design is featured on the fuel tank front and rear fenders side covers fairing hard saddle bags and tour pack I've just got one now the paint Scheme is distinctive and it's only as the panel effect is more modern than historic as it was first applied to custom cars and bikes and boats in the 1950s and 1960s in addition you've got seat covers with red side panels and gold embroidered Harley-Davidson logo and you've also got red panels added to the Heritage Classic saddlebacks beautiful um we've got red fade powertrain inserts laser etched serialization other than that the bikes are identical to the regular models so on to the CVO model the one and only CVO and there may be another CVO released later in the year I don't know that sometimes happens with Harley Davidson but there's going to be 1 500 of these Road Glide cvos produced worldwide and on the CVO you have a very intricate paint Scheme which begins with a base coat of anniversary black the panels of heirloom red are applied to the front fender fairing fairing lowers fuel tank side cover saddlebags and tour pack luggage carrier each panel is outlined with a bright red pinstripe and gold scallop the gold scallop is applied by hand using a technique that produces what appears to be a slight texture when you see it in the sunlight and that's similar to Gold Leaf but it's not built uh water slide details are added within the panels and in the fairing the detail depicts the head and Leading Edge of the wing of the art deco speed bird the details of the wing feathers is within the fuel tank and the saddlebags and these are very subtle the intent is to create the ultimate finish with details that emerge only after a first second or even third look at the back and in different lights you just thought oh and then you notice it is superb the CVO speedboat tank Medallion is gold-plated and it has a colored glass filled emblem which is a art deco rendition of a flying eagle and you have anniversary black and heirloom red panel paint with airbrush details seat cover has a luxurious Alcantara surface with gold and red contrast stitching excuse me and embroidered CVO logo there's gold tone powertrain inserts bright red rocker boxes and push rod tube collars laser etched serialization on Console insert CVO is amazing I've ridden one a couple years ago look at my review so I I know this is just going to be top of the range in every detail now on to the sport models for Harley Davidson there's no longer Sportsters they are sport models and for the 2023 year we have a new nice special model and that comes in various colors which are vivid black bright billiard blue industrial yellow I love that color uh and black denim you've got a new passenger pillion and foot Peg which enables uh two up riding you've got new cast aluminum wheels with tire pressure monitoring and a new handlebar and 127 millimeter handlebar Riser which moves the hand controls up and back towards the rider so some people felt that it was too long to reach uh you've got a new 101.6 millimeter round TFT screen uh with all your infotainment and all that sort of stuff in it um you've got status information on the screen which includes front and rear tire pressure engine temperature oil pressure battery voltage diagnostic codes um you've got the Bluetooth equipped mobile thing that you can connect your phone to and you can use voice commands through a headset and you can take calls and all that sort of stuff so if you're into more gadgety Harleys this is the one for you and you have navigation which is supplied by the Harley-Davidson app for iOS or Android which must be downloaded into the right your mobile phone and then when you've got navigation enabled you can select a moving map display or a turn-by-turn map either of which are displayed on the screen which is brilliant so there's no point having a TFT in my mind unless you've got a Sat Nav on it and you have now so fantastic when I reviewed the notes the last year I didn't have all these apps and everything I strapped my old um um what's it called TomTom with a bit of string to the handlebars and the battery lasted five minutes and I got lost uh so Sat Nav is a good idea um you've got new standard cruise control new USB charging port and a new Medallion on Air Box covering with the 1970s styling now this has with the last knightster has the 975t revolution Max engine and it's very very fast it's a very rapid motorcycle and all the power in the world in my mind you don't need anything more than that if you do you're crazy it's got a liquid cooled V-Twin and it produces lots of torque and lots of power you've got 90 horsepower at 7500 RPM so for Harley it's a lot more revvy and it's got 70 foot pounds of torque which Peaks at 5000 RPM and it will rev to 9500 RPM which is mental the front suspension is 41 mil shower dual bending valve Forks conventional Forks which is good upside down ones are ugly rear suspension is dual outboard direct acting with no linkage um seat height 698.5 mil it's got a narrow bike so it's good for all sizes brake and clutch

are adjustable for reach LED lighting Brembo brakes 11.7 liter fuel cell they call it which is located below the seat and that gives you a lower center of gravity so as before and you've got various ride modes you've got Road sport rain and custom models which you can tune yourself somewhat and various Rider safety enhancements which is anti-lock braking system traction control and drag torque slip control which stops the wheel spin basically in different uh conditions now the knights the special comes in at a price of 15 395 pounds for the Viet black and fifteen thousand seven hundred and seventy pounds for the color ones Harley-Davidson offer a three-wheeler of course the trike or the three wheeler model and that's had some changes for 23 which includes a more blacked out look you've got Vivid Black White Sand Pearl or billiard blue with a billiard gray two-tone you've got the 114 engine you've got a reverse gear on that which is great which makes it easy to maneuver mini apes bobtail rear fenders weatherproof rear trunk um dual mufflers and various safety enhancements now we reviewed the trike a few years ago when we were rubbish um but it's a great bike because obviously a lot of people ride them if they have a disability or if they're aged or whatever reason and it offers people the chance to experience pretty much a motorcycle and the freedom of the air and all that but with three wheels so you don't have a balance so it's a lovely thing to have now the freewheeler has a price of 31 495 pounds for the Vivid black the color models are 31.995 and the two-tone 32 345 pounds now on to the adventure touring the Pan America um the only changes for that are a new Catalyst and a heat shield and the New Black radiator fan heat shield and the grand American touring models are basically unchanged for the model 23 except for some new color options so for me the bike that I really can't wait to get my leg over is the new breakout which bike appeals to you from the list that I've gone over um we aim to review all the Harley Davidsons this year and that is going to happen um hopefully so watch this space I love Harley Davidson's amazing bikes sometimes you get haters on the videos with Harleys um I don't know why they're fantastic bugs they're amazing quality excuse me I'm burping him amazing quality they're very reliable people say they're not reliable but look at million dollar Bogan he's riding a Harley Davidson Road King special all around the world he's ridden from California all the way down through South America and he's going to um through Panama and Mexico and Ecuador right the way down Peru um not a not a problem with the bike ever whatsoever the only thing is you know hitting potholes and damaging a tire or something um so if you think they're not reliable he's doing a thousand kilometers a day on his and he hasn't had a problem with it so they are reliable bikes they're fantastic bikes they're beautiful very well made and they're super cool so if you're a cool guy or a cool girl you know where to go [Music] thank you [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] foreign [Applause] foreign [Music] foreign [Music] thank you [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] thank you so like subscribe all right business and we'll see you on the next video
