Where is the 2023 Harley-Davidson Breakout?
On January 18, 2023, the time has come and Harley-Davidson will introduce the new 2023 Harley-Davidson models . Before we get the exact answer to the question, we will have to wait a few more days to know exactly what will happen to the Breakout.
Is the breakout now a long way off?
Basically, the excitement repeats itself every year. There was particularly high tension in Europe when it became clear a few years ago that it had been removed from the program in the USA.
When Harley-Davidson presented the carry-over models on January 2, 2023, the breakout was suddenly missing on the Harley-Davidson side in the cruiser model area, including here in Europe. Of course, nothing is ever certain until the official information from Harley-Davidson has been released.
There are increasing signs of a breakout 117
The signs are becoming more and more confirmed that Harley-Davidson will present a breakout with the 117 Milwaukee-Eight engine on stage on January 18th.
If I were one of those speculating about wanting to buy a new Breakout, I would definitely check the situation in the box now to see if there is enough in it. One thing is clear, you will have to dig a little deeper into the box, because a larger engine is expensive. Especially with the breakout, there will only be a limited ordering window to get one of them.
CVO Models – Is the CVO Limited coming back?
CVO Limited is expected back
You hear very little about the CVO models, it's all extremely confusing because there is a rumor that a very special CVO special model will be presented to us on January 18, 2023. The next question then arises: what about the others? It's not really clear what they're planning to do now, but it's certainly going to be spectacular in the next half of the year.
Is Harley-Davidson postponing the CVO presentation to the 120th Anniversary Party in Milwaukee?
CVO Limited 2023 is considered set
They didn't have the CVO Limited in their program in 2022, but now it should be back in the running, although the box will have to be a little more full than in previous years if you actually belong to the elite group that gets one of them.
Will the CVO models be the highlight at the HD Homecoming Event in Milwaukee?
From the 13th to the 16th July 2023 is the Harley-Davidson Homecoming Event in Milwaukee. They're really making a big deal about it. Where, if not here in Milwaukee at the anniversary party, the new CVO models are presented, that would be a good fit.
They have generally been working on new suspension concepts for some time, it is unclear how far along they are, but nothing in this direction is expected this year. At the moment the special accessories, the Screaming Eagle Öhlins and Wilbers chassis are popular with customers.
I see the price for the CVO as being beyond €50,000. That's a lot of money, but you have to give them one thing: the CVO's are pretty cool. My best buddy just managed to get a used CVO Limited from 2020! He has fulfilled his lifelong dream.
It's not that easy to get one if you have special wishes and don't want to spend more than €40,000 on a used one. Well, even used you can't get them cheap if you want them to be in good condition, unless you're very lucky.
motorcycles last year , everything is put into perspective; certain models are still difficult to obtain.
The 120th Harley-Davidson anniversary models
The Harley-Davidson anniversary models are certainly the main topic at the presentation. The Jubilee Fat Boy is considered safe, a surprise would be the Breakout as a Jubi model, for a few such a model is certainly great, but what does the rest of the Breakout fan base do, it is also often used as the basis for a radical custom bike conversion . They would then come away empty-handed unless they bring two Breakout 117 versions.
On January 18th, 2023 from 5:00 p.m. we will probably be a lot smarter!
