Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits experienced riders who are comfortable managing a heavy, long-wheelbase machine at low speeds and in traffic.
PurposeIt's built for covering long interstate miles in comfort with a fairing-mounted stereo and storage rather than for quick errands or sport riding.
Rider FitAt 838 lb wet with a long 64-inch wheelbase, it demands a taller, stronger rider confident with its bulk at parking-lot speeds.
CharacterIt delivers a torquey, unhurried V-twin cruising experience wrapped in Harley's signature bagger touring style.
Not Ideal ForIt's not for riders seeking nimble cornering, off-road capability, or a lightweight, flickable ride.
