Harley Davidson launches new muff-magnet

 I’ve always been a fan of sports bikes, but I have to admit that there’s something cool about a big fat chopper like this latest Harley-Davidson model. The recently launched ‘Softail Cross Bones’ has some real retro styling and is guaranteed to get more admiring glances from chicks than any plastic rocket. In fact, since the whole point of owning one of these bikes is to moisten the gussets of bystanding females, it’s surprising that there’s no pillion seat. Here are some of the specs if you’re into that sort of thing:

• Rigid-mount, 1584 cc Twin Cam 96B balanced engine
• 6-speed Cruise Drive transmission
• Black powder-coated engine with polished rocker box covers and pushrods and untreated fins
• Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI)
• Gloss Black painted Springer front end with chrome springs
• Gloss Black mini ape-hanger handlebar
• Straight shot exhaust with chrome slash-cut mufflers
• Adjustable sprung solo seat with leather lacing

The bike was launched in the US this winter, no word yet on whether it’s coming to the UK any time soon.
