This past Saturday (July 25, 2009), Harley-Davidson revealed their 2010 product line to the public. Part of that line-up included nine new models.
A couple of the new models are hybrids of existing models where enough engineering marvels and technical enhancements were added that it constituted the creation of a new model all together, models such as the new Fat Boy Lo above. While other models are completely new to the mix such as the newly introduced Trike line below.
The Tri Glide Ultra Classic:
The Wide Glide (DYNA):
I really like this one below … the Fat Bob (CVO)!
There are 34 mechanical masterpieces now available in the mix and let me tell ya, if I had it my way, I would take one of each any day …
All-in-all, here are the highlights of the 2010 Harley-Davidson line-up:
- The king of the Harley-Davidson Touring line, the Electra Glide Ultra Limited model packs a Twin Cam 110 ci engine and now features standard equipment items previously offered only as accessories on regular-production Harley-Davidson Touring models.
- The re-designed Road Glide Custom model has a new suspension, 18-inch front wheel and a new 2-to-1 exhaust.
- The Wide Glide returns (Dyna) model sporting an old-school chopper style, with black laced wheels a shortened rear fender, black “wire” sissy bar and a flame paint scheme.
- The newly designed Street Glide Trike brings a hot-rod styling to the three-wheel category, and joins the Tri Glide Ultra Classic in an all new Trike family for 2010.
- Done up in satin chrome and denim black, the new Fat Boy Lo (new) presents a darker and lower interpretation of the motorcycle that still defines the fat-custom segment.
- The 2010 Street Glide model is souped-up even more with updates that include a larger front wheel, slimmed-down exhaust, and a new tail light assembly.
- V-Rod, Night Rod Special and V-Rod Muscle. The explosive performance of the liquid cooled Revolution V-Twin engine keeps VRSC at the top of the power cruiser food chain in 2010.
- The American motorcycle legend that is Harley-Davidson Sportster features six models for 2010, including the Iron 883 introduced mid-year 2009 and four others priced less than $10,000 (USD).
- Harley-Davidson Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO),where all the shimmering chrome and bold paint comes from, are offering four new limited-production models for 2010. The CVO Softail Convertible, the CVO Street Glide, the CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide and CVO Fat Bob. Also note that all CVO models are powered by a Twin Cam 110 engine that is the largest displacement offered by Harley-Davidson.
In spite of all the choices … I am still partial to the Cross Bones below. I’m not sure what it is, but it brings the youth out in me. Maybe it’s that solo seat configuration …
And lastly, here is the 2010 Harley-Davidson Edition Ford F-150 Pick-up.
