Chrome Eagle Holding Bar and Shield

Harley-Davidson started 115 years ago, in 1903. To celebrate this anniversary, some cool new looks were introduced ranging across several model types. This eagle carrying the bar and shield in his talons can be found on the 2018 CVO Limited, as well as some other models.

2018 Tri-Glide

This trike has the Legend Blue and Vivid Black two-tone paint. The seats are embossed with “HDMC” in blue stitching. If you scan across the console, you’ll see “115th Anniversary” inscribed on there, as well as on the air cleaner and the timer cover.

2018 Heritage Classic

The Harley-Davidson designers also expect another sect of the biker population to show interest in the 115th Anniversary Edition models: Harley fans who want to show up at some of the nationwide 2018 biker rallies pulling up on a brand new Two-Tone Special Edition, like the Heritage Classic!

2018 Breakout 114 - First Look

Harley-Davidson wanted to gain some business with the young crotch-rocketers when they invented the Breakout 114. Check out this truly badass blue denim style on this Breakout. On the gas tank, you can see the special 115th anniversary tattoo-inspired graphic of an eagle holding the Bar and Shield. The designer features do vary from one model to the next, while some features are available on multiple models – like the Milwaukee Eight 114 CI engine.

2018 Street Glide Special

Harley-Davidson decided to build only a limited number of these models – it was reported that possibly only 2400 of each type would be available this year for purchase. If you aren’t able to get one of the Special Edition models, the regular 2018 year lineup is quite awesome, also.

The 2018 Fat Bob 114 is the only model available with both anniversary styling schemes

Enter the 2018 Fat Bob 114. This is one bad machine. This model has gained so much popularity over the years, Harley decided to offer only this model in both of the Special Edition styles, Two-Tone and Denim. Here is the denim in white – as well as a great custom profile, such as these custom 2-1-2 exhaust pipes.

Ride On!
