The Creation Of An Icon

Harley-Davidson has been a market favorite since its founding, but in 1984 they made the decision to branch out a bit. Though their iconic style and impressive performance notwithstanding, more and more customers sought bikes that kept them comfortable for longer. To answer those needs, Harley-Davidson put an A-frame rear swingarm at the back of the bike and horizontally mounted shock absorbers beneath the frame. The result was an instant classic, combining the aesthetic the people loved with the comfort they needed: a Softail® motorcycle.

 

Today

The 2021 models include the Softail® Standard and the Softail Slim®. Both are designed to evoke the golden age of motorcycles while utilizing nothing but the best and most cutting-edge technology. That includes the powerful Milwaukee-Eight® 107 V-Twin engine and ergonomic builds to keep city riders comfortable. Both are slightly different in terms of riding position and control placement to fit more riding styles. But even a Softail model from a previous year still stands the test of time.
