Harley-Davidson Softail description

Myrtle Beach Bike Week in five weeks! Get this baby now! Loved her, but traded up to a Screamer. MORE DETAILS: Custom Enhancements on 2007 Model Harley-Davidson upped the engine size for the Softail Custom again for the 2007 model year. In addition to the Twin Cam 96 1,584 cc engine, the Custom and the rest of the Softail line received a new 6 gear Cruise Drive transmission, up from the 5 gear version that had been in use since 1986. The electronic fuel injection system was also updated for 2007. The Softail Custom is a distinctive looking motorcycle.The Custom underwent some styling upgrades for 2007, including a new one-piece seat with integrated passenger back rest. Bill Davis originally developed the Softail because he liked the look of classic hardtail bikes, but wanted the added comfort of rear suspension on longer rides. With its hidden suspension system, the Softail Custom is built low to the ground to get the look of the classic rigid-mount motorcycles.

Vespa goes back to the future

Thu, 22 Nov 2012

IT'S been a while coming, but the gorgeous Vespa 946 - EICMA 2012's Best of Show - has finally introduced something to the two-wheeled world that our four-wheeled counterparts have had for a while.  I call this 'reverse retro-futurism' - the art of borrowing lines from models past and imbuing them with a sleek sense of future direction (as opposed to retro-futurism, the pre-1960s design trend of depicting the technology of the future. The term 'decopunk' may come close, but feel free to tell me if there's a more exact term.) It's what the New Mini and the New Beetle (both 1997 and 2012 versions) have done so well, and so successfully: building an all-new model as a tribute to a classic, something that's modern yet already timeless, with a widely-appreciated, inclusive aesthetic (and here we eliminate the Plymouth PT Cruiser from the conversation). The biking world is great at retro, indeed thrives on it, but not so good at adding in a taste of the 21st century.

The California Air Resource Board has issued executive orders on a number of 2014 Harley-Davidson models, revealing much of the Motor Company’s upcoming product lineup. While most of the models listed are familiar, the documents do reveal some gems including possible signs of the long-rumored new liquid-cooled Harley-Davidson engine. The first and least surprising reveal is the disappearance of the 1584cc Twin Cam 96 engine.
