2023 Harley Davidson 120th Anniversary Models

2023 Harley Davidson 120th Anniversary Models

Harley Davison has finally kicked off its 120th-anniversary celebration by announcing the release of new 2023 models. Today, we are going to discuss all the latest launched models.

1. Specialty of the 120th-Anniversary Lineup for Harley Davidson

1903 – 2023 (120 Years)

Special Anniversary Color: Heirloom Red

Harley Davidson has incorporated every color in fine detail, from the threads to the seat, to match the gold pinstripes.

Looking at the color closely you’ll see a very fine flake, making it feel rich and special.

Anniversary Badge: The latest Harley Davidson models include a badge with the moniker Harley Davidson. In 1954, Harley launched the first-anniversary badge, a beautiful and chunky brass badge on the front fender of all the models. But the latest version has integrated the word “EAGLE” with a beautiful diamond pattern fitting the style from the late 1920s.

All Harley models come with a beautiful Oxblood finish and a seat with contrast stitching. The consoles have the gold-plated Harley Davidson logo and the model serialization. Moreover, the whole thing ties to some power train details.

Harley Davidson captured tradition in this new vibe!
