2017 looks promising thanks to Harley-Davidson

Monday, 24 October 2016, 12:35 Last update: about 9 years ago

The new range of the 2017 Harley-Davidson motorbikes has been specifically designed to cater for touring activities; its new Milwaukee eight engine has been built from the ground up to provide a smoother and a purer sound. Its new suspension is remarkable thanks to it being fully hand adjustable in the rear, creating a touring ride like no other in immeasurable responsiveness.

The 2017 range has released a total of 35 models, each developed and proven over countless miles and millions of hours. The engine has been developed to bring more power, better fuel economy, cooler running and better passenger comfort, thanks to the new positions for the rear exhaust pipe. The suspension has been completely re-engineered to provide the rider with more comfort, more control and more confidence in the handling of their bike. All of this coupled with the unmatchable customisation that accompanies a Harley-Davidson bike, sums up to create truly one of the best touring experiences.

 

Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra hits Malta

Malta has just experienced a truly unique addition to its busy roads; the Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra. This model, as its name so precisely reveals, has three wheels and apart from this exclusive characteristic, is an authentic model of the Ultra Limited line.

This model is the first in Malta to have a Twin Cooled Milwuakee-Eight 107; the engine is made up of eight valves, all with the aim of adding control and force to the motor, while reducing fuel consumption and emissions. The motorbike's BOOM! Box 6.5 GT system enjoys a screen of the latest technology with an added GPS system and Cruise Control, a system which allows a constant velocity for the desired period. The model also comes with a booth of almost seven feet squared, enough space for embarking on a few days adventure away from home.

The only red Tri Glide Ultra in Malta was sold around a month ago within three weeks of being put on sale in the Fapi showroom.

Fapi Motors are the distributors of the Harley-Davidson brand. The Harley-Davidson 2017 range can be found at Fapi Showroom, Mdina Road Attard.
