H-D gets radical

Harley-Davidson has launched a new Dark Custom range, with the most recent offering being a Cross Bones 'custom'.

Based on the Softail Springer platform, it's borrowed some 'bobber' custom styling cues to come up with something that's visually very different to anything else in the range.

"Only Harley-Davidson could do this bike," said Bill Davidson, Harley-Davidson Vice President,. "It's a motorcycle inspired as much by our early Knuckles and Pans, as by our desire to deliver innovative technology and content..."

The mechanical package is familiar, based around the current Twin Cam 96B engine series.

H-D is currently launching the bike in America and Europe.
