The latest additions to the limited-edition Harley-Davidson Motorcycles, namely the Icons Motorcycle Collection and the limited-run Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection, were revealed, showcasing premium factory-direct custom paint and graphic treatments and paint application technology.

Both collections were displayed from 2-9 March during the run of Daytona Bike Week at the H-D Event Display Area at Daytona International Speedway and will be made available at authorized H-D dealers.

The Icons model is inspired by the look of the motorcycles ridden in the era of the upcoming film, The Bikeriders, which follows the rise of a midwestern motorcycle club, as seen through the lives of its members. The film is scheduled to be released theatrically in Summer 2024.

Hydra-Glide Revival Model

The 2024 Hydra-Glide Revival model, the fourth instalment in the H-D Icons Motorcycle Collection, celebrates the 75th anniversary of the 1949 introduction of the Hydra-Glide telescopic front suspension for H-D E and F models.

When Hydra-Glide equipped models were introduced, the saddle of a smooth-riding H-D FL motorcycle was an exciting way for many Americans to explore the country on the new network of Interstate highways.

Owners of the 2024 Hydra-Glide Revival model can trace their own route to freedom and adventure on a bike inspired by this classic era while enjoying all the comfort and features of a modern Harley.

The Icons Motorcycle Collection is an annual program for the limited release of a new model that offers a fresh interpretation of an iconic H-D motorcycle. A limited collection, each model is individually numbered and produced only once.

Global production of the Hydra-Glide Revival model will not exceed 1,750 units.

The Hydra-Glide Revival model is finished in custom Redline Red paint with a Birch White panel on fuel tank sides, the same design featured on 1956 models. Details include chrome “Harley-Davidson V” tank badges inspired by 1955-56 tank badges and “Hydra-Glide” script badges located on the front fender skirt.

The serialized “Hydra-Glide Revival” insert on the handlebar riser cap and Icons Motorcycle Collection graphic on the rear fender identify this limited-production model.

Additional styling features include instrument graphics inspired by those on the 1954-55 speedometer. The two-tone 21-inch (53.3 cm) high detachable windshield features a colour-matched lower portion in Redline Red.

The bike features a counter-balanced Milwaukee-Eight 114 V-Twin engine tuned with a Screamin’ Eagle High-Flow air cleaner to deliver power with authority. For the rider focused on performance, this engine accepts all applicable H-D Screamin’ Eagle Stage Upgrade kits.

The Softail chassis hides an adjustable mono-shock rear suspension below the seat for dynamic cornering capability and riding comfort while preserving a classic hardtail profile.

Electronic cruise control holds a steady speed for comfort on long rides. An LED headlamp and auxiliary lamps provide outstanding forward illumination. Standard Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) offers confident control in a variety of riding conditions.

Tobacco Fade Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection

Together the beat of rock ‘n roll and the syncopated rhythm of a V-Twin engine stir the souls of Harley riders. The 2024 Tobacco Fade Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection celebrates the burst of collective energy released by live music at the corner tavern, at a motorcycle rally, or on the live stage at the Harley-Davidson Homecoming Festival.

The Tobacco Fade paint and graphics scheme, inspired by the classic sunburst wood finish first seen on rock and roll guitars, bass, and drums of the 1960s, make this a special motorcycle for any music lover.

These limited-edition Harley-Davidson Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection models celebrate H-D riders and are inspired by their stories and legacies. This collection of H-D motorcycles is available in no more than 2,000 per model across a curated selection of three motorcycle models.

The Tobacco Fade paint treatment is applied by H-D using state-of-the-art precision paint tools designed to execute faded panel detailing. A rich caramel-coloured pinstripe accents the tone of the metallic gold panel floating just outside the sunburst fade.

The fuel tank medallion is inspired by the shape and grooves of a vinyl record, while a graphic on the front fender shaped like a guitar pick, inspired by rock band and instrument logos, speaks directly to the details in the tank medallion.

The Tobacco Fade Enthusiast Collection includes:

Low Rider ST

Strap down your bedroll and make a run for the border. The H-D Low Rider ST model is an American V-Twin sport-touring bike for the rider who digs clean-and-lean West Coast style and craves the outrageous performance of the Milwaukee-Eight 117 V-Twin powertrain.

The Low Rider ST model connects these riders with a pure Harley-Davidson attitude. Mechanical features are identical to the 2024 Low Rider ST model.

Ultra Limited

Experience premium touring performance with zero compromises in a long-haul touring motorcycle. Classic-style batwing fairing, 4-speaker audio, and a Tour-Pak luggage carrier offer ultimate comfort for both rider and passenger. Mechanical features are identical to the 2024 Ultra Limited model.

Tri Glide Ultra

A long-haul touring trike that calls you to go the distance with all the torque, style, premium infotainment and cargo space three wheels can hold – it is the ultimate in two-up comfort for adventurers who show no signs of stopping. Mechanical features are identical to 2024 Tri Glide Ultra model.

The Polestar 2 BST edition 230 is the second limited-edition version of the Polestar 2. A total of 230 units will be produced for worldwide markets, and Singapore will receive allocation in limited numbers.

Just in case you’re wondering what ‘BST’ stands for, it’s short-form for ‘Beast’, which was the nickname of the one-off high-performance Polestar 2 that was created to run during 2021’s Goodwood Festival of Speed and brutally ripped through the tarmac, wowing enthusiasts in the process.

Out of that was borne the limited-run BST edition 270. And now we have this second limited-run.

The original BST edition 270 featured chassis modifications, and this new BST edition 230 brings along with it a greater focus on performance design details. But first, some stats.

Compared to the Polestar 2 Long Range Dual Motor with Performance Pack, power gets a bump from 408hp to 476hp, while torque jumps from 660Nm to 680Nm.

The 0-100km/h sprint is dispatched in just 4.4 seconds compared to 4.8 seconds. In other words, the 230 gets all the performance upgrades the 270 did.

The BST edition 230 receives 21-inch gloss black diamond cut forged alloy rims wrapped in specially-developed Pirelli P Zero 245/35R21 tyres instead of 20-inch items.

The dampers are also upgraded bespoke Öhlins two-way adjustable Dual Flow Valve (DFV) in front and single-adjustable DFV in the rear, instead of non-adjustable DFVs. Springs are stiffer by 20% and ride height is dropped by a further 25mm.

On the inside, Weavetech upholstery is eschewed in favour of Charcoal MicroSuede upholstery, which is made from partly recycled Nubuck textile, and this also features as inserts on the steering wheel.

The most visible difference is on the outside, with two exclusive paint schemes – an olive-green colour called Nebula, and a metallic black colour called Space. Both come with a full-length matt-black stripe.

The BST edition 230‘s Singapore launch is expected to be in the third quarter of 2023. Quickly reserve your allocation slot here to avoid disappointment, since we’ll likely only get a handful.

Since 1999, Harley-Davidson Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO) motorcycles have been an aspirational collection of limited-production motorcycles. Owning one was the equivalent of the ultimate in refinement of styling, design, craftsmanship and attention to detail, along with top-of-the-line performance.

Over the decades, Harley-Davidson designers and engineers have thoughtfully evolved these motorcycles and designs, introducing incremental improvements to further enhance the riding experience whilst carefully respecting their heritage and position as icons.

Well, the CVO boys have done it again, and Harley-Davidson is set to announce two new 2023 CVO motorcycles with exclusive and dramatic new visual designs coupled with advanced technology and dynamic performance.

“With the introduction of the all-new CVO Street Glide and CVO Road Glide, we’ve completely reimagined two of Harley-Davidson’s most iconic motorcycles and redefined the boundaries of CVO in the process,” said Jochen Zeitz, Chairman, President and CEO of Harley-Davidson.

“By rethinking these two models from the ground up, we are ushering in a new era of innovation, design, engineering, and technology, while expanding the definition of Harley-Davidson CVO and taking the Grand American Touring experience to another level. The new CVO Street Glide and CVO Road Glide break the mold and reset the bar for the pinnacle Harley-Davidson riding experience.” 

“These all-new and unquestionably Harley-Davidson designs bring a cohesive and dynamic flow from the front fenders to the saddlebags,” said Brad Richards, Harley-Davidson Vice President of Design and Creative Director, commenting on the design of the new motorcycles.

“Achieving a greater degree of visual change than any generation prior, the design of these CVO Street Glide® and CVO Road Glide® models are revolutionary takes on the historical art of evolution. Like all Harley-Davidson® motorcycles, these new models are meant to instil a sense of timeless desire.”

Official details will be announced on June 7, 2023, with the official premiere of the all-new 2023 CVO Street Glide and CVO Road Glide. For more information, hover over this highlighted text here.
