Harley-Davidson FXDR 114
By Ross Sharp - 29 Aug 18
Last year I had an absolute blast on the Harley-Davidson Softail Press Launch in the hills above Barcelona, see the ride report here. The 114 cubic inch water-cooled motor is my kind of powerplant, the grunt is seismic and near guarantees to curl the mouth of the grumpiest pilot. The H-D marketing spiel included a bold promise of 100 new motorcycles inside 10 years, yes, one hundred. That's quite a balls-on-the-block statement. But as you'll have seen over the last few weeks, it wasn't a hollow war cry.
