• NEW REAR LED LIGHTING

Low profile in style, but big and bright when you need it most.

License plate mounts are slotted nearby to offer a convenient and noticeable spot for your tag.

• EVOLUTION ENGINE HERITAGE

The Evolution engineknown in certain crowds as the Blockheadwas first bolted to the frame of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle back in 1984. Born from legendary Shovelhead and Ironhead engines, the Evolution engine broke new ground in displacement innovation while maintaining the hunger for power, durability and proven reliability that The Motor Company was built on.

• EVOLUTION ENGINE INNOVATION

Air-cooled and durable as hell, the 1200cc Evolution engine is yet another nod to the unwavering work ethic that drives advancements in motor technology at Harley-Davidson. Aluminum heads and cylinders lighten the load of the bike and improve air-cooling efficiency.
