HARLEY-DAVIDSON PRESENTS THE ICONS AND
ENTHUSIAST MOTORCYCLE COLLECTIONS FOR 2024
The strictly limited Hydra-Glide Revival and the Tobacco Fade models celebrate their premiere at Daytona Bike Week.
FRANKFURT (29.02.2024) - Curtain up: Harley-Davidson unveils the latest models of the Icons Motorcycle Collection and the Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection with elegant graphics and impressive special paint finishes, which are applied using sophisticated technology. The machines will be on display from March 2 to 9 at the Daytona Bike Week in the Harley-Davidson Event Display Area at Daytona International Speedway and can already be ordered from H-D dealers. However, anyone who wants to own one of these motorcycles in the future should hurry, as both collections are strictly limited and the bikes will be correspondingly rare.
The look of the bikes ridden in the American movie The Bikeriders also provided inspiration for the Icons model. Set in the 1960s, it tells the story of the rise of a motorcycle club in the Midwest of the USA from the perspective of its members and is scheduled to hit our theaters in July 2024.
The Hydra-Glide Revival from the Harley-Davidson Icons Motorcycle Collection
2024 will see the release of the Hydra-Glide Revival, the fourth model in the Harley-Davidson Icons Motorcycle Collection. Its look pays homage to the classic Hydra-Glide models – the E and F series on which Harley-Davidson introduced the telescopic fork 75 years ago. From 1949 onwards, they helped make exploring the United States on the interstate highways even more comfortable. The 2024 Hydra-Glide Revival also promises freedom and adventure in its own unique way, with a look that is influenced by this bygone era while offering the technology, comfort, and features of a modern Harley-Davidson.
As part of the Icons Motorcycle Collection, the Motor Company presents a strictly limited edition model once a year that pays homage to a classic Harley-Davidson. Each individual machine in the collection is numbered and is only manufactured in the year of its release. Only 1,750 units of the new Hydra-Glide Revival will be produced, which will soon be available from H-D dealers.
Exclusive styling
The Hydra-Glide Revival features special Redline Red paintwork and Birch White tank sides – a look that matches the 1956 models. Harmonious details include Hydra-Glide lettering on the front fender and chrome tank badges with Harley-Davidson V lettering, inspired by the style of the 1955 and 1956 tank badges. In addition, the Hydra-Glide Revival insert on the handlebar riser and the Icons Motorcycle Collection graphics on the rear fender make this strictly limited model unmistakable.
The speedometer dial was modeled on the Harley-Davidson speedometers of 1954 and 1955, and the lower part of the 53.3 cm high dial was colored in Redline Red. A round air filter and wire spoke wheels emphasize the nostalgic look. They are chrome-plated, as are the fender strips, crash bars, fork covers, engine, and exhaust system.
The solo saddle is equipped with a leather valance adorned with fringes, chrome rivets, white piping with contrasting red stitching, chrome conchos with a red acrylic border and center, and a chrome railing. The leather tank strap is in the same style. Rivets, leather fringes, conchos, and piping with contrasting stitching also adorn the leather and vinyl saddlebags. Their surfaces are water-repellent, and they feature security locks and sturdy case shells so that they retain their shape even after years of use.
Nostalgic look, modern performance
Proper propulsion is guaranteed by the Milwaukee-Eight 114, which the Motor Company equips with a Screamin’ Eagle high-flow air filter for superior power delivery. Thanks to the Softail chassis, the suspension strut is not visible under the seat. This preserves the classic hardtail look while ensuring dynamic handling and a high level of comfort. An electronic cruise control system keeps the speed constant on request, an LED headlight with additional headlights illuminates the road in an exemplary manner and the anti-lock braking system guarantees added safety.
The Tobacco Fade Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection
The rhythm of the V-Twins hits real Harley fans right in the heart just as much as the beat of rock ’n’ roll. It is this burst of collective energy at live acts in a club, at a motorcycle rally or at the Harley-Davidson Homecoming Festival that provided the impetus for the Tobacco Fade Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection. With their classic sunburst finish, electric guitars and basses from the 1960s formed the model for the Tobacco Fade paint finish and its graphics - a look that will delight music fans.
The bikes in the Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection are strictly limited edition, a sign of appreciation for Harley-Davidson fans and inspired by the stories of petrolheads. The current collection is available in only three models, with no more than 2,000 units produced of each.
The Tobacco Fade color gradient is created in state-of-the-art precision paint shops. Rich, caramel-colored pinstripes accentuate the color tone of the metallic gold surfaces beyond the Sunburst Fade areas. The tank emblem is reminiscent of the shape and grooves of a vinyl record, while the logo on the front fender is designed like a guitar pick. The logos of rock bands and instruments served as inspiration, which is also reflected in the lettering.
The Tobacco Fade Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection includes:
Low Rider ST
The Low Rider ST is powered by the particularly powerful Milwaukee-Eight 117 and is designed in a clean West Coast style. Two panniers hold the luggage and the frame-mounted fairing protects against the wind.
Ultra Limited
With its classic batwing fairing, powerful infotainment and audio system, two saddlebags, and a Tour Pak with luggage rack, the Ultra Limited offers uncompromising comfort for both rider and passenger.
Tri Glide Ultra
The trike offers ideal conditions for long-distance riding. This is thanks to the batwing fairing, large trunk, a Tour-Pak, and two extremely comfortable seats with backrests and armrests for the passenger.
All technical features of the three models are identical to those of the 2024 models on which they are based.
Special styling features for all models
– Premium paint finish in Tobacco Fade
– Record-inspired tank medallion
– Stylized guitar pick logo on the front fender
– Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection logo on the Tour-Pak luggage rack or rear fender
