MILWAUKEE – Harley-Davidson used the X Games in Aspen, CO today to unveil two mid-year 2016 models – the Low Rider S (shown above) and the CVO Pro Street Breakout.
The blacked-out Low Rider S is the third “S” model in the Harley-Davidson lineup, joining the Fat Boy S and the Softail Slim S. It’s powered by the Screamin’ Eagle Twin Cam 110 engine and has an upgraded suspension and brakes.
In announcing the Low Rider S, Harley-Davidson said essential elements “begin with the powertrain. The Screamin’Eagle Twin Cam 110 engine is a powerhouse V-Twin and the largest-displacement engine Harley-Davidson installs at the factory.
“Equipped with a Screamin’ Eagle Heavy Breather performance intake and Fat Bob-style 2-into-2 exhaust, this engine pounds out 115 foot pounds of peak torque at 3500 rpm – 13 percent more power than the standard Low Rider model.
“A heavy-duty clutch delivers that power to a 6-speed Cruise Drive transmission. Cruise control enabled by electronic throttle control is standard equipment. The entire powertrain and exhaust is finished in a combination of gloss black and wrinkle black powder coat.”
The Low Rider S will be available one color – vivid black. It has a solo seat, standard ABS, chopped rear fender, side-mounted license plate and gold-tone magnesium wheels. The MSRP is $16,699. For more info, visit Harley-Davidson’s website here.
The CVO Pro Street Breakout (shown above) is a limited-production model with a Smoke Satin Chrome finish.
“The Pro Street Breakout represents a new dimension of CVO motorcycles,” said Richards. “It still delivers the depth of detail and value and the bragging rights the CVO customer expects, but gets there in a different way. Its colors may be subdued but also have incredible depth. We’re developing alternate finishes to bright chrome – brushed and anodized surfaces and tinted clear-coat, for example. The Breakout really lent itself to this new styling direction.”
The CVO Pro Street Breakout is powered by an air-cooled Screamin’ Eagle Twin Cam 110B engine, ABS brakes and cruise control. The MSRP is $25,699. For more info, visit Harley-Davidson’s website here.
