Sep. 7 2018 News By Barnes Harley-Davidson®

Harley-Davidson has distilled the essence of their legendary Softail® family into a single bike, the FXDR™114. Get all the classic style, modern power, and killer attitude you expect from a Harley cruiser, with a new chassis, more powerful engine, and enough additional features to make other bikes look bare-boned.  Designed from the ground up to eat miles of pavement and blast past envious pedestrians, the FXDR™ will move you in ways you never thought possible. 

At Barnes Harley-Davidson, we’re happy to bring our customers a first look at the all-new Harley-Davidson® FXDR™ 114. Keep reading for more information on this great new bike or head into our showroom in Langley, BC for a closer look!

Performance and Power

Every pull of the FXDR™throttle responds with barely-tethered power, blasting you off with an injection of adrenaline-fueled thrill. This is thanks to the impressive Milwaukee-Eight® 114 V-Twin, the largest displacement engine available on a Softail cruiser. You’ll get enough torque and horsepower to melt your expectations into slag and put lesser bikes far in the rear-view where they belong. Don’t forget about that classic air-cooled engine roar, because you’ll be letting loose your own soul-satisfying howls as you blast down city streets. All that means one thing: superior performance that excites the senses and leaves riders in a state of pure delight.

Easy Riding and Smooth Handling

Harley-Davidson aims to improve on their older designs as much as possible, and the FXDR™ doesn’t break from this tradition. Taking inspiration from Screamin’ Eagle® NHRA drag bikes, the FXDR™ has a new air intake system that’s shaped to increase airflow to the impressive Milwaukee-Eight® 114 engine. This take on the Screamin’ Eagle® Heavy Breather has an exposed, forward-facing filter element that improves air flow and looks good to boot!

The inverted racing-style fork up front uses an innovative single-cartridge to keep the front wheel on the pavement, and that means improved braking and handling wherever you go. The Harley FXDR™ 114 also has a monoshock rear suspension featuring a single coil-over-shock with emulsion technology to give riders an even smoother experience. An optimized angle between the frame and swingarm allows enhanced travel and response time, meaning riders get the smoothest Softail ride yet. This bike’s stellar suspension gives you seamless handling that inspires superior riding confidence.

Sleek, Modern, and Lightweight

The base Softail chassis has been totally overhauled to give the FXDR™the highest level of agility and lightest weight among its peers. Several alloy and composite materials have been used to forge the new chassis so it’s more flexible while still able to handle the powerful output of the Milwaukee-Eight powertrain. 

A sleek fuel tank stretches across the top of the FXDR™, giving it the signature profile you expect from the Softail family. The final touches come from a long list of impressive features and modern amenities to make the riding experience as comfortable and safe as possible. LED Daymaker™ headlamp, rear light, and turn signals light up the road and give you and other motorists extra visibility, while a set of modern gauges and controls make the controls easy to read and react to. Digital riser gauges, keyless ignition, and much more are available on the FXDR™ 114!
