The Motor Company’s 110-year story has always been driven by people more than machines.

Back in 1903, when four young guys had the revolutionary idea to build a motorised bicycle from the ground up, it was their spirit of adventure and discovery that wrote the first chapter. Since then, every twist in the tale has been written by a new generation of riders. From the hill climbers and racers of the early years to the returning heroes of the ‘40s. From the black leather rebels of the ‘50s to the young guy about to swing a leg over his first Sportster® today. Every generation brings a fresh perspective. Every individual adds their unique voice. It’s a million stories. It’s one story. And everyone tells it their own way.

There’s a good reason people feel the way they do about Harley-Davidson® tourers.

It’s something to do with the fact that we each get an undetermined time to explore this incredible theme park of a planet. And there are two ways to respond to that knowledge. You can rush around trying to do as much as you can, as fast as you can. (And that’s fine for some.) Or you can make damn sure that, whatever you do while you’re here, you do it right. Because this is a once-in-a-lifetime ride, and those kind of rides are for savouring. Drinking in every detail. Experiencing every mile. It’s the difference between grabbing a sandwich and appreciating a gourmet meal. The difference between doing it the quick way and doing it the right way.

Welcome to HellTesTed in ArizonA, reAdy for The world

A famous philosopher once said: “Life without pain has no meaning”. The Arizona Proving Ground was created to give every Harley-Davidson® motorcycle’s life meaning. Two hours from Vegas and a million miles from the comfort zone, it’s a high-security, 24-hour, tortuous testing ground designed to take a motorcycle to its limits and beyond to attain the high standards of performance, durability and reliability our riders take for granted.

We say it’s a necessary evil for the best ride possible.

To the motorcycles, it’s hell on earth.

What didn’t kill the Street Glide® made it StronGer.The 2013 Street Glide® is the latest motorcycle to have survived the Arizona Proving Ground. When it rolled through the high-security gates, the testing team knew the new suspension shocks would deliver a more comfortable ride, increased manoeuvrability and the adjustable suspension would give great adaptability. But before they were happy to hand it over to our riders, they needed to ensure it didn’t just meet, but beat the standards needed for a lifetime of ownership.

Their aim wasn’t to break the Street Glide®, it was to put their expertise into its development so it delivers the best ride possible. They clocked up thousands of miles on the Street Glide in the most extreme riding conditions and demands that can be found on planet Earth. Continuous high-speed cruising and fast cornering required for eating up the miles in the Snowy Mountains. Precise handling and manoeuvrability needed for tackling the winding Glass House Mountains. Low-speed stability and balance required for downtown Auckland. After the Arizona Proving Ground, the world’s roads will be a walk in the park for the 2013 Street Glide.

emiSSionS and PoWerThere’s no rest for a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle here. Bikes are run 24 hours a day, seven days a week in our emissions and power testing labs – advanced simulators that mimic the clutch, acceleration and movements of real riders. They are put through as many miles as possible, often up to 70,000, in the shortest time possible. Never stopping to refuel thanks to our sophisticated and, some would say, rather sadistic built-in refuelling systems.

Vehicle meaSurementNo motorcycle gets off that easily. Every prototype must now be fitted with sensitive data equipment so that no detail goes unnoticed. The Street Glide® was no exception. Its suspension was fitted with sensors and worked over the Arizona Proving Ground’s gruelling courses to measure the stresses, movement and distribution. The punishment couldn’t have been worse, but now, the suspension couldn’t be better.

Vehicle durabilitySmooth roads. Rough roads. Wind. Rain. Dust. Heat. In the name of durability, bikes are subject to tens of thousands of miles of punishment all year round in all conditions. From searing temperatures of over 45°C where the tarmac tops 65°C, to the cold chill of winter desert nights.

Desert dust, wind and humidity assault all machinery out here. Day after day, motorcycles are punished and toughened to handle predictably on windy roads covered with potholes, mud, gravel and ice. Every type of road condition you can imagine, and some that you daren’t.

Street Glide®

Don’t let the classic Grand Tourer profile fool you. This is more new cool than old-school. Check out that 18" front wheel, the hard panniers and slammed suspension. You’re looking at an uncompromisingly progressive custom bike with our latest 1690cc engine, ABS and security package as standard. The batwing fairing with its low, smoked fly shield houses a top-end Harman/Kardon® audio system that lets you choose your own soundtrack as easily as you choose your own road. New for 2013: we’ve upgraded the shocks, making the ride more comfortable still and the cornering even more dynamic.

HeritaGe Softail® ClaSSiC

The full fenders, Hydra Glide-inspired chrome nacelle, whitewall tyres and chrome-laced wheels make this a stunning exercise in ‘40s cool. But this is no museum piece for putting on a pedestal and admiring. This is a true twenty-first century motorcycle built to be loaded up and ridden, mile after carefree mile. That hardtail-looking suspension that leaves the lines looking so clean? It hides our innovative Softail® suspension, built for touring in comfort. Those leather-studded saddlebags that look so retro? They’re made for packing your road trip essentials, too. And it’s all wrapped around our latest Twin Cam 1690cc V-Twin engine, ready to add the signature Harley-Davidson soundtrack to every journey.

But remove them, and half a minute later you’re looking at classic custom Dyna with nimble handling, tailored suspension and street lines that will turn heads anywhere.

And whether you’re touring or cruising, that 1690cc V-Twin engine makes sure there’s nothing holding you back. You want a road-ready tourer? You want a custom streetbike? Now you only need one machine.

Dark just got darker…

We figured our blacked-out, pared-down Dyna® could handle looking even more minimal. So for 2013 we blacked out the forks, the triple clamps and the engine.

Then we decided it could use a little more retro styling. So we added unique fin highlighting on the engine to dial up that chopped-back but premium-looking bobber style.

Add that to the mini-ape hangers, solo seat, chopped rear fender and no-nonsense blacked-out rims and you’re riding in the slipstream of the original post-war chopper builders. Guys who had seen everything and knew what really mattered. And what didn’t. Overseas models shown.

If less reflection reflects you best, this lean and lively all-rounder is a perfect introduction to Street Custom.

The chopped fenders: black. The front forks with old-school gaiters: black. The engine and rocker covers: black powder-coated. The oil tank cover, belt guard and drag bars: all black. The cast aluminium wheels: guess what?

So don’t waste time looking for your reflection in it. As if you would…

But grab those low-rise drag bars and fire up the 883cc V-Twin engine and you’ll know in a second that there’s one thing about this blacked-out, stripped-down Sportster® that really does shine: its performance.

If you like your heavyweights big, bold and dripping with attitude, you’re going to love this street fighter’s style.

Stand in front and go eyeball to eyeball.

First things you’ll notice are the wide stance, those muscled-up forks, that 130mm-thick Michelin® Scorcher™ tyre wrapping the 16-inch front wheel.

And its twin lamps, never breaking eye contact…

But does its performance live up to the build-up?

With its newly upgraded Twin Cam 1690cc engine, ‘Tommy Gun’ 2-1-2 exhaust and that menacing Harley-Davidson® rumble, there’s no doubt: it’s no contest.

WordS can’t alWayS do juStice to theSe feelinGS.

The sense of freedom that comes from pointing your fists and feet at the horizon and letting the open road pull you ever onward. The thrill of hearing that unmistakable V-Twin rumble proudly announcing your arrival. The knowledge that anyone who catches sight of your confident riding stance will instantly understand your defiant attitude… These are the bikes that say everything without you needing to say a word.

But that’s not to say you won’t wind up deep in discussion with like-minded souls from time to time.

Wide Glide®

Inspired by the classic ‘60s chopper look, the Wide Glide® makes an unforgettable first impression on two fronts. First: those long, wide, raked-out front forks and solid triple clamps. With all that steel up front they’ll see you coming for miles. Second: that hand-finished fuel tank with paint up to twice as thick as the competition. Go for the ultimate ‘70s look with the optional ‘flame’ finish and you’ll get envious stares everywhere you ride. The blacked-out sissy bar, engine casing, bike frame and wheel rims add to the retro style. While the new 1690cc engine, ‘Tommy Gun’ 2-1-2 exhaust and adjustable suspension ensure that the heart-stopping performance and modern levels of comfort are unmistakably of 2013.

You want authentic ‘70s chopper design? A 21st Century take on the classic easy rider look? Supercool custom styling straight out of the box and ready for the road? You’ve found it. The peanut tank, a chopped rear fender, laced wheels with whitewalls, mini-ape hangers and forward controls for that ‘fists and feet in the breeze’ stance. To complete the high-end custom look, the Seventy-Two™ is available with Hard Candy Custom™ paint.

From out of the dark comes a million shining stars. Every Hard Candy Custom™ paint job begins with a base coat as black as night. This is the foundation on which our unique paint, materials and processes combine to create that iconic 70’s red, green or golden sparkle.

The ability to produce this high-quality effect on such a large scale was no easy feat. During the process, we use unique geometrically shaped, dyed flakes. These flakes are now highly fragile so we need to set them in a layer of tough, glossy resin and sand it perfectly smooth – without sanding so close as to damage the

flakes and ruin the effect. It takes a highly skilled craftsman to get this right. But we can repeat this process between six and eight times on every single part before finishing with one final clear, deep gloss.

Many after-market custom spray paint shops attempt similar effects. Some even come close. But only with Hard Candy Custom has the combination of process and technique been mastered on such a large scale, whilst hitting rigorous original equipment quality standards. So only with Harley-Davidson can you affordably spec your bike with such a predictably striking finish.

The fine art of Hard Candy Custom™

They say the devil is in the detail. We’ve spent two years researching, refining and perfecting a high-end custom-look paint job, usually reserved for one-off bikes at custom shows. And now it’s readily available on the 2013 Sportster® Seventy-Two™, Sportster® Forty-Eight®, Dyna® Street Bob® and Softail® Deluxe. But one thing we’ve learned along the way is, for all the fine tuning and automating of the process, you still need the touch and skill of a human craftsman to get it right every time.

Rewind to the 1940s, when the custom bike movement was born. Returning WWII soldiers with liberated attitudes, hard-earned mechanical skills and a newly acquired love of riding got hold of surplus Harleys® and stripped them back to the essentials: losing the front fenders, ‘bobbing’ the rear ones, blacking out the painted parts. The result was a classic minimalist look that still stirs the soul. And the Softail® Slim™ is true to that proud heritage, from its ‘Hollywood’ bars and broad-shouldered tank to its half-moon footboards and low-slung solo seat. The gloss black ‘Cat’s Eye’ console with its 1939-style speedometer complete the retro look. And we’ve made sure that its vintage looks have not been compromised one bit by the modern developments – like our latest 1690cc engine, bespoke ABS and security package – that make it such a fulfilling ride.

In every field of human endeavour, there are the timeless classics.

The category-defining icons to which true fans always return – and which every new generation discovers again. These are ours.

Think of them as The Beatles, The Stones, the AC/DC and the Led Zeppelin of the Harley-Davidson® range. They are our custom masterpieces. Our spirit. Our soul. Occasionally remixed. Never surpassed. And always, always respected.

Welcome to the Harley-Davidson Hall of Fame.

www.h-d.com.au 27

The first Harley-Davidson® Sportster® appeared way back in ’57. Now meet the foremost. Sure, the peanut tank (born in 1948) has been seen on generations of Sportster motorcycles. The short chassis that delivers nimble, agile handling runs in the family too. But there’s something more to this beast: an unruly attitude, embodied by those dropped under-bar mirrors, forward controls, ‘shorty’ pipes and that fat front wheel. It’s an attitude that is amply backed up by our 1200cc Evolution™ engine.

For full specifications please visit www.h-d.com.auOverseas models shown.28

A global superstar since it first appeared in 1990 with its iconic Star of the USA tank logo and its bullet-hole wheels. But the roots of this original ‘fat custom’ classic go even deeper; back to the old-school hardtail choppers of the ‘60s and ‘70s. Like them, this heavyweight boasts a powerful presence with attitude to spare. The fat front fork and big chrome headlamp make sure the world knows you’re coming. And once you’ve arrived, the Fat Boy® never lets their attention waver. The wide tyres, the wheel-to-wheel chrome, and the tank with its signature badge and leather strap make sure of that. And with our latest 1690cc engine powering your ride, neatly hidden rear suspension to make it smooth and the reassurance of ABS and security package as standard, there’s no shortage of ability to go with the attitude.

If any motorcycle anywhere in the world has been customised more often than the Fat Boy®, we’d like to see it. In the meantime, here’s our twist. We’ve taken it to the dark side with a blacked-out look, head to toe: blacked-out mirrors and lamp; black denim finish on the frame, swing arm, front shocks, derby cover, horn cover, coil cover, oil tank and air cleaner cover. Black, ‘bullet-hole’ cast aluminium wheels. And what chrome detailing remains we’ve knocked back to a satin finish.

Overseas models shown. 29

Attention-grabbing nostalgic looks wrapped around a ride that is undeniably of today make this the ultimate Harley-Davidson® boulevard cruiser. The clean hardtail lines, stretched old-school fenders and wide whitewalls come direct from classic pre-war Harleys. Those deep chrome triple headlamps ensure you’ll get all the attention you can handle wherever you go. The chrome luggage rack on the pillion gives you the option to load up and go as far as you like. And thanks to the smartly hidden Softail® suspension, you’ll go every mile in comfort.

Back in 1971, when Willie G. Davidson first had the idea of combining the engine power of a ‘Big Twin’ with the agile chassis of a Sportster®, a new breed of custom motorcycle was born. Super Glide® Custom is the timeless masterpiece of that breed. It’s a lean, low custom Dyna® that’s all about effortless cruising, from its long forks and pull-back bars to its two-up seat and big, dragster-look rear tyre. And there’s no understatement about it – this beauty is chromed-out from wheel to wheel. From the rocker covers, tank-mounted gauges and battery cover to the wheel rims and laced spokes. The polished medallion atop the mighty Fat Bob® tank completes the authentic one-of-a-kind custom look.

Bottom line: we took a classic Sportster® and supersized it. We gave it a muscular triple-clamped front end, a fat front tyre, wide steel-laced wheels and a broad custom tank feeding a willing 1200cc Evolution™ engine. The result? A responsive, agile street machine with a heavyweight attitude and presence. And new for 2013, we’ve added two limited edition factory custom variants:

XL1200CA with custom graphics, black 5-spoke machined wheels, drag-style bars, two-up seat and black denim engine; and XL1200CB with black denim custom paint, black-laced wheels, mini-ape bars and forward controls.

Welcome to the pinnacle of Harley-Davidson® craft, where our CVO™ specialists scale new heights of factory custom art. These limited edition collectible classics are highly prized by connoisseurs the world over. So be warned: a masterpiece like the brand new Breakout™ won’t be available for too long. For 2013 we’ve endowed all four CVO models with our latest, most powerful engine: the 1802cc Screamin’ Eagle® Twin Cam. And we’ve added a layer of refined smoothness with 6-Speed Cruise Drive™ transmission. And to accompany the soul-stirring V-Twin rumble, crystal clear Harman/Kardon® audio – excluding Breakout™.

You’ve never seen a Softail® like the brand new Breakout™ before.

Our latest CVO™ creation is a true one-off. A long, low stunner with slammed styling and an aggressive profile. Everywhere you look it serves up a visual feast. Choose from three authentic custom-polished metal paint options, including one Hard Candy Custom™ colour – Gold Dust and Liquid Sun with Pagan Gold Graphics – that generate more shine than any model we’ve ever made. The chrome horseshoe oil tank and chromed-out turbine wheels bring yet more to the visual banquet. The smooth leather two-piece seat features hornback gator inserts. Every inch is classic, no-holds-barred custom styling straight out of the crate.

This long, low and blacked-out head-turner is characterised by that unique fixed shark-nose fairing. As well as setting the tone for the whole machine, it smooths your ride, shields you from the elements and hides integrated storage for items you need to keep close at hand. Those ultra-sleek looks are maintained by the hidden antenna, Edge paint scheme, wind-splitter smoked windscreen and the artfully colour-matched components. It’s an opportunity that won’t be around for long.

34

Built to cover long, luxurious miles and attract long, envious stares, this is the ultimate expression of the definitive Grand Touring machine. It’s the 8th time we’ve given this glorious ‘full-bagger’ the CVO™ treatment; we just can’t seem to resist it. And Harley devotees can’t seem to resist the combination of power, performance and premium customisation either. You get lavish, deep-finish CVO paintwork. You get chrome from wheel to exhaust and everywhere in between. You get intercom, GPS and adjustable seats. You get to enjoy the high-performance BOOM!™ audio system. All of which means you get attention everywhere you go.

We thought it was high time this legendary Harley-Davidson® classic got the CVO™ treatment. Our craftsmen have amplified its nostalgic ‘60s looks with exclusive paintwork and extra chrome. Without compromising its timeless style, they have added a detachable, wind tunnel-tested windshield and large, injection-moulded saddlebags to make it a fully equipped, long-distance tourer – with the looks and handling of a Road King®. And to make the trip even more exceptional: a premium sound system with 200 watt amp, adjustable rear suspension, luxury two-up seating and cruise control.

This is where aesthetics and adrenaline come together.

Just as passers-by are admiring the uncompromising looks – blacked-out engine, wheels, forks, triple clamps and swing arm – the liquid-cooled 1250cc Revolution® engine kicks out 122bhp and you’re gone. Loving the brute force, feeling the pull of all that torque, enjoying the smooth response of the slipper clutch and appreciating the precise control of the high-performance Brembo® brakes. This is about taking iconic design and sophisticated technology and wrapping them up in darkly seductive aggression. And who could get tired of that anytime soon?

For the lucky ones, it’s not a daily commute, it’s a daily adrenaline rush.


36

A fresh chance every morning to start the day right. To open up the throttle and feel the pull in the sockets of your shoulders. To go your own way, every day.

V-rod MuSCle®

The clue’s in the name. It’s about sheer presence and brute power. About, in a word: Muscle.

From its mighty air scoops and mufflers to its ultra-fat 240mm rear tyre, the styling is slick yet unashamedly imposing. And those looks are matched by a thrillingly muscular performance. The Revolution® engine is tuned to deliver 121 brake horsepower, and provide 115Nm of torque at 6500rpm. But its delivery is not as raw as you might expect. Thanks to its slipper clutch, hidden ABS and Brembo® brakes, the V-Rod Muscle® wraps all that power and traction up in a smooth, controlled and refined ride. However hard you push it.

HANDLEBARS

The position of your handlebars

impacts directly on your posture,

affecting the comfort of your hands,

wrists, arms, shoulders, neck and

lower back. So saying it’s worth

getting right is an understatement.

Choose the bars you like and we’ll

customise their position with riser

kits to make sure you enjoy real

easy riding.

SEAT

It’s not just about sitting comfortably. It’s about

making sure your hands and feet connect with the

controls easily. So whether you’ll be riding solo or

two-up, we’ll make sure you find a seat that suits.

FOOT CONTROLS

They’re not just an important part of the look of your bike; they

can be the difference between long hours of discomfort or extra

miles of enjoyable riding. Correctly adjusted, they’ll help keep

your ankles, knees, hips and back relaxed and stress-free.

SUSPENSION

Whatever your build and riding style, if your

suspension is tailored exactly to your individual needs,

you’ll maximise your miles in the saddle. Our H-D1™

consultants and technicians will work with you to

perfect the balance of ride quality and responsiveness.

FIT SHOP

It’s not a one-size-fits-all world.

Just as no two Harley-Davidson® motorcycles are quite the same,

no two riders share exactly the same size, shape and riding style.

That’s why we created Fit Shop* to make sure that no Harley rider ever

sacrifices comfort and rideability for style. It’s a four-stage process

where we work with you to make minute but vital adjustments to your

ride: fine-tuning the ergonomics, switching and swapping components,

balancing the settings until the bike feels as good as it looks.

1927A leather jacket makes its first appearance in the clothing line-up. A sign of things to come.

It’s a rich heritage which all began back in 1912 when our racing jersey was first seen, proudly carrying the Harley-Davidson name big and bold. 100 years down the road, it’s grown to become the acknowledged market leader in premium riding gear. An authentic American brand that keeps riders the world over safe, comfortable and looking great – both on and off the bike.

1912The woollen race jerseys that appear in the

June 1912 issue of ‘The Harley-Davidson Dealer’ prove so popular that three times

the original shipments are needed.

1914A catalogue entitled ‘Useful

Accessories for Harley-Davidson Motorcycles’ is introduced.

It includes cardigans, jerseys, leggings and gloves.

1938Harley-Davidson develops

the famous biker jacket for the New York Police Department.

It remains an iconic and enduring symbol of popular culture ever since.

We’re celebrating a century of Genuine Harley-Davidson® Apparel.

46

1960sThe range continues to expand, bringing in functional all-weather clothing and a broader range of jackets and styles.

1991In the year that more than

three million items are sold, Harley-Davidson

receives the Council of Fashion Designers Award.

2013Today’s range not only includes tough riding gear that keeps you safe on the bike, but also apparel that keep you looking good off it: the Black Label collection of modern and slim-fitting streetwear; Pink Label gear with the feminine touch; sportswear, accessories, collectibles and more.

1954A legend is born as

the Cycle Champ and Cycle Queen black

leather jackets make their debut. 1972

Harley-Davidson introduces winter

wear suits, hats and boots as a result of

experience gained in snowmobile production.

1958The first hard-shell helmets

appear in the Harley-Davidson clothing line, showing that it’s

not only about style – it’s about rider safety, too.

1998The FXRG® range, designed to protect riders in virtually any weather conditions, is launched. The midweight jacket goes on to become our best-selling jacket ever.

1989The Harley-Davidson MotorClothes® brand is created, adding casual sportswear and small leather goods to answer growing demand.

We kick started the Harley Owners Group back in 1983 as a way to unite riders from every corner around the globe with one thing in common: a passion for riding a machine with the famous Harley-Davidson badge.

Since then, there have been more than a million members – from some who were riding free before most of us were born, to the more recent converts.

Whoever they are, wherever they are from, they are welcome. It doesn’t matter what, why or how they ride – whether they ride alone, travel with a small crew, or enjoy riding with 300 mates.

Most Harley-Davidson dealerships have their own HOG Chapter that organises local rides, charity events and overnight trips. It’s a great source of friendly advice and a chance to share experiences with riders who share your passion and know how to have a good time.

Every new Harley-Davidson motorcycle comes with a complimentary 1 year membership to the Harley Owners Group. Come ride with us.

2O13riders always loved the uncluttered lines of our ‘hardtails’. Trouble was; those clean, classic looks came at a price… no rear suspension. Hence the nickname. But in 1984, we hit on an elegant solution – hidden suspension – and the Softail® motorcycles had arrived. Each one is an authentic custom homage to a cool heritage look, complete with horseshoe oil tank, low seats and premium graphics. And it’s all wrapped around technology that delivers a truly smooth ride. New for 2013, our Twin-Cam 1690cc engine and 6-Speed Cruise Drive™ transmission across the whole family – excluding Blackline®.

Kings of the road since 1965. The Harley-Davidson® Touring family has been making long-haul dreams come true for close to half a century. Big enough to accommodate adventurers travelling solo or with a passenger, plus everything you’ll need along the way. Yet these heritage-styled ‘dressers’ and ‘baggers’ are easier to manoeuvre than you might think. And with modern comforts like air-adjustable suspension, ABS, 6-Speed Cruise Drive™, high-end audio, intercoms and our latest 1690cc engine, you might never want to come home again.

launched in 2002, these long and low works of art are the most radical edge of the Harley-Davidson® line-up. A muscular mix of drag-strip performance and menacing, street looks. Explosive, off-the-line power coupled with cutting-edge technology. we worked with some of Europe’s leading performance engineers to create the V-rod® family’s liquid-cooled 1250cc V-Twin revolution® engine. Then we brought Brembo® performance brakes, a slipper clutch and hidden ABS to the party, adding a layer of smooth precision to all that rugged power.

Custom Vehicle operations™ is where we get to really show off – and so does anyone seen riding the results. In 1999 we decided to take a selection of our latest models and push them to the limit, creating the ultimate, factory custom tours de force. Each of these limited edition machines is proudly and meticulously built by the Harley specialist team. Each has been given a larger 1802cc engine, more chrome, more shine, the finest components, the latest technology and an exclusive paint job. And each represents the purest pinnacle of what Harley-Davidson can be.
