Harley-Davidson took the wraps off new models in its 2022 lineup, which included some performance-enhanced baggers and the return of the popular Low Rider S. It did不是与希望的革命Max Powerplant一起实现,许多人希望将其包括在流行的Power Cruiser中。但是,Low Rider S的确有一个新的兄弟姐妹,以新的低骑手ST轻型旅行者的形式。

Harley CEO Jochen Zeitz did say there would be more new models revealed as the year goes on, which will hopefully include models with the new high-powered, liquid cooled V-Twin.

在周三上午现场直播的在线视频活动中,Zeitz早期专注于新的高中(或至少更高)的性能自行车和赛车,尤其是新的Baggers(Kotb)系列赛,这些系列已被证明是娱乐性且出乎意料的流行。In the KOTB series, which grew from essentially a single oddball lark of a race in 2020 to a bona fide series, Harley and the Polaris-run Indian have renewed their storied rivalry, with Indian taking the trophy in 2020’s sole event and veteran racer Kyle Wyman taking it back for Harley in 2021’s three-race series, riding the last race with a broken elbow held together with screws and plates from a race crash injury only three weeks previous. So it should be game on for 2022 as该系列赛将六场比赛加倍,其中包括在代托纳的停赛。Here are some highlightsin case you missed the last 2021 race at the always challenging Laguna Seca circuit.

Per usual, racing informs production, and Zeitz introduced two new production “ST” series performance baggers, aRoad GlideStreet Glide, that feature punched-up 117-cubic inch air/oil cooled motors, Öhlins rear suspension, stripped-down amenities, tuned intake and exhaust systems and $29,999 price tags. Harley said the 117ci plants make 126 pound feet of torque but as is typical for Harley’s air-cooled bikes, no horsepower figures were released.

Zeitz spent a small bit of time on thepopular new Pan America, citing its “Best of” reviews by循环世界Motorcycle.com,但是没有大的newnews for the PA besides some new color options (above) and minor tweaks for 2022. Prices remain unchanged at $19,999 for the up-spec Special and $17,319 for the base bike. Adding wire wheels, panniers, aux lights, the optional Adaptive Ride Height feature and other bits will quickly pad those numbers, of course. Still, the Pan America remains hugely popular, and several sources (including a local dealer) telling me the bike is currently backordered. Zeitz reiterated that the Pan America was the best selling adventure bike in North America in 2021.

And while Zeitz also spent some time on the company’s luxe $42,000-and-up CVO touring models, the day’s widely expected news was confirmed with the return of the Low Rider S model, and its new stablemate, the Low Rider ST, which includes a smaller fairing than the new ST baggers as well as quick-release rear hard cases.

The Low Rider S, with its bigger 117ci motor, uprated suspension and stripped-down style, has been a popular model since it was introduced in 2017 as part of the last run of the popular Dyna platform. I rode the 2017 model and was suitably impressed, and am happy to see it back in the line-up with a more touring-capable sibling. The S has also gotten some needed tweaks: The tach and speedo that were on the tank on past models have been consolidated into a single, high-tech clock now properly located on the handlebar, and the suspension has been revised to allow for more lean angle. The 2017 model had the old 110ci 2-valve motor and it was surprisingly fast, we would imagine the additional cubes from the Milwaukee 8 117ci V-Twin will add a bit more pop.

Harley设计师在视频中说,他们开始在带有最小旅游装备的聚会套装中看到低级车手的模特1980年代和90年代的自行车。尽管尺寸很小,但哈雷说,“响亮”的音频系统将是LR ST的可用选择。第一印象?看起来不错,但令人失望的是,Low Rider S和ST不是基于Revmax Motor的运动型机器。

But, never say never. Zeitz ended the presentation by saying they will share the “next chapter in the Sportster story,” which could mean a sport-touring Sportster with a RevMax heart. “There are a few more surprises in store for 2022,” Zeitz said toward the end of the video over teaser shots of a bike with a red tank and flush gas cap. Or maybe it’s a charging port? We’ll see.

2023 will mark汽车公司的第120年的业务,因此希望有一些2023年早期的版本发行版将包括一些利用新引擎的新自行车。时间会说明。
