Harley Davidson's New Milwaukee Eight Engine

[I.P. Freely]

I'm sure it will help with Harley's sluggish motorcycle sales....

Here's a another article about the 107, from a more technical perspective.

Ok, the 45, 61, 74, 80, 88, 96, 103, and now 107"..what is the magic number for them ? Not including the SE motors, but is this the best they could come up with ? The best part to me is the return to a single cam and the easy adjust rear shocks. So, the new motor is only in the touring models. Looks like the prices have stayed about the same on these models, don't know if it will boost sales, except for the gots to have it crowd.

So who did they have to hire to design this one ?
Didn't they pay some German company to design the V-rod ?

Your sick! But I did laugh. The last three I have had are the 79 Low Rider, 99 Fat Bob and last was the 09 Ultra Classic. It took three times to the shop to fix the Primary cover gasket on the 79. The Sick bastards at the lab, after I had it finally fixed the leak, pored oil under the primary when I was at lunch..I well, I will leave it there.

With it only being offered on the touring models I don't think it will draw in a lot of new riders. For the Harley fans it will have to fix the heat issue. Touring Harleys run stupid hot for the rider and passenger.
