HEAVY DUTY Magazine - January - February 2023

In this issue

HEAVY DUTY #186 January/February is the first issue for 2023 – the year that Australia fully re-opens!
Before we get our hands on the expected 120th Anniversary Models, we had a couple of MY22s to throw a leg over. And they were two of the best: Mick re-discovered the joys of high-speed comfort aboard an Ultra Limited; and Dave got back in touch with the Sport Glide – a bike we consider the best value-for-money Softail. 
We also had a couple of Days In The Saddle with the Sportster S: One in inner-city Auckland traffic; and the other at Sydney Dragway.
Back on the road we’ve got the Aussie Viclas’ Nationals from Albury-Wodonga, and the Longriders CMC’s Old School Cool show from Lobethal.
Custom bikes kick on with Doug Every’s Breakout – the winner of the second round of Breakout Boss. Back that up with Taverner Motorsports’ 200hp Golden Child, and a beautifully balanced Evo built by Daniel Herman, as well as a great 111ci Twin Cam rigid.
Mick has released his Royal Enfield RE865 Interceptor into the hands of Brian the Welder, and waves it farewell.
HEAVY DUTY #186 is on sale now in newsagents and better bike shops across Australia and New Zealand.
