Introducing the New Model Harley-Davidson Breakout

THE new model Breakout from Harley-Davidson has received a major power upgrade courtesy of the Milwaukee-Eight 117 V-twin engine, the pinnacle of torque and displacement, that gives the Breakout rider instant bragging rights on the street. 

New performance features include: 

• An 18.9 litre fuel tank topped with a low-profile chrome console shaped to lengthen the motorcycle profile and extend riding range. 
• Milwaukee-Eight 117 V-Twin engine with precision oil/air cooling is new pinnacle of torque and displacement in a factory-installed, regular-production Harley-Davidson powertrain for instant bragging rights on the street. 
• High-performance camshaft is matched to displacement and air flow intended to maximise performance. 
• High-performance, tuned Heavy Breather intake with forward-facing exposed filter element flows more air into the engine to help produce exciting mid-range torque, and gives the motorcycle added hot rod presence.
• New standard cruise control.

New style features include: 

• New handlebar riser and polished stainless-steel handlebar is 0.75-inch (19 mm) taller than the previous model for improved rider reach to controls. 
• A dazzling chrome finish is applied to the rear fender supports, side covers, muffler shields, turn signals, mirrors, and Heavy Breather intake. 
• New 26-spoke cast-aluminium wheels are finished in gloss black with machined detail; 21-inch front/18-inch rear diameter. 
• The Harley-Davidson Softail chassis has been optimised to reduce weight without sacrificing stiffness while maintaining the classic look of a hardtail with a thoroughly modern ride.

Speaking about the launch, Nigel Keough, Managing Director of Harley-Davidson ANZ, said: “2023 marks an exciting year of unforgettable milestones for Harley-Davidson, and the 10th year of production for the iconic Breakout is no exception. As one of the most popular motorcycles in the Australian market, this cruiser is designed to rule the street with style, ease and power — we can’t wait to see riders embrace all that the Breakout has to offer.”
