Harley-Davidson Softail Heritage Classic 114 FLHCS 2023

If you can only try one Harley-Davidson, the Heritage is definitely a good choice. With its classic appearance and the roaring Milwaukee Eight V2, it embodies the brand's core values like no other model. It is also well suited as a touring bike thanks to cruise control, a comfortable saddle, side panniers and windshield. However, it is definitely the wrong bike for chasing the best times on the home track; the brakes and chassis are not designed for this. Anyone who demands that of it has not (yet) understood the subject of Harley-Davidson cruisers.
