Largest-ever Product Development Project launches Harley-Davidson® into its 115th Anniversary Year with brand new Softail® custom motorcycles ready for 2018.

The four brand new Softail® motorcycles – Fat Boy®, Heritage Classic, Fat Bob® and Street Bob® feature all-new designs that strongly differentiate them from their predecessors and each other. And from a new base of style, comfort and performance the next generation of factory custom cruisers is ready for riders to elevate even further with their own personalisation.
