Harley-Davidson Softail Breakout FXSB 2013

Harley-Davidson Softail Breakout FXSB 2013

The Harley-Davidson Breakout doesn't really need a lengthy explanation, it's self-explanatory. Anyone who sees it immediately realises that this model cannot really be off-the-peg, even though it is a standard Harley. Many - certainly including those who know about it - will even consider the Breakout to be the creation of a tasteful customiser. That's why it's all about the external charms: the beautiful rims, the chopped rear or the glittering paintwork are just the most striking details on the professionally designed Breakout. The inner values, on the other hand, play a subordinate role; if you can't remember how much Horsepower it has, don't bother reading up - it doesn't matter. It goes without saying that such a piece of jewellery has its price, and the Breakout is not intended to be a special offer. However, it is a good investment, considering the abnormally low depreciation of a well-maintained Harley, it is definitely a good investment.

The widest rear tyre of the standard Harleys comes into its own

positively surprising ride

sophisticated design

Footrests drag on the ground early

disappointingly quiet exhaust sound

Harley-Davidson Nightster 2022

Comfort on long rides, a lot of fun on winding roads and easy handling: I felt at home on the new Harley-Davidson Nightster right from the start. It's a bike that can be ridden fast around the bends or cruised in a relaxed way - with an engine that is powerful but not intimidating. On the modern Sportster version, I appreciate the presence of traction control, anti-hopping clutch and different riding modes. The Nightster gives me a real Harley feeling, just a little more unexcited compared to its predecessors. For my California trip, it was exactly the right choice.

easy handling

comfort on long distances

extensive equipment with riding modes, traction control, anti-hopping clutch and more

chic & modern Sportster look.

Relatively small fuel tank

Keyless system only for ignition, not for handlebar lock and fuel tank

Rear suspension not very comfortable on rough road surfaces
