HEAVY DUTY Magazine - May-June 2023

In dit nummer

HEAVY DUTY #188 May/June is on sale Monday 1st May, 2023 with the 2023 Harley-Davidson Breakout front and centre on the cover. Now fitted with the awesome 117-cube M8 engine, Harley has made a good thing better. Bigger fuel tank adds happiness. Also on the cover is the Fat Boy, Harley’s most unique Softail has what you need and nothing more. Paul tested the Street Glide Special and reckons that it is special! That’s it for new bikes but our selection of customs is just as impressive. We’ve got the CVO Street Glide that did well in the bike show at Brighter Days as well as a Chicano Blue Softail from Adelaide, a red Vicla Deluxe from Sydney, and an amazing FXR Evo from Brisbane that has opened Dave’s eyes to the joys of FXR.. Doc has proof that there’s no substitute for cubic inches, and Mick has got the upgraded suspension nailed on Packhorse – our 2022 Road King Special – and proven it with a 3500km test ride. We’ve also checked out the NZ HOG drags, Auckland Pink Ribbon Ride, and Brighter Days in the best part of Victoria. John ‘Westy’ Rooth takes a look back at the FXRS-Sp he owned and let slip through his fingers. HEAVY DUTY #188 is on sale now in newsagents and better bike shops across Australia and New Zealand.
