Harley-Davidson® Milwaukee-Eight™ Engine

The Milwaukee-Eight™ is the brand new engine for the 2017 model year touring motorcycles! This outstanding motor has been developed from scratch to create the best engine Harley-Davidson® has ever put in a touring bike! The Milwaukee-Eight™ utilizes a four valve per head design (hence the eight) combined with lightweight construction to create an engine that delivers better fuel economy, improved heat management, lower emissions, and more power than ever before! In a head to head matchup with previous touring motorcycles, a Milwaukee-Eight™ equipped bike has an acceleration advantage from through the full RPM range, with a distinct edge in zero-to-sixty mph trials, as well as a visible improvement in sixty-to-eighty mph comparisons. If you want to feel the difference that Milwaukee-Eight™ makes, then call Willamette Valley H-D® today and you can schedule a test ride that you’ll never forget!

Harley-Davidson® New Touring Suspension

The Milwaukee-Eight™ is only one of the upgrades that the touring family received this year! The new 2017 touring bikes from Harley-Davidson® have also been equipped with an improved suspension system to provide the responsive, smooth ride that you deserve. The first step was to beef up the size of the pistons to create an even dampening response through the full length of the suspension travel after that Harley-Davidson® added on a Showa® Dual Bending Valve front fork to provide 117 mm of travel on standard bikes (98 mm on lowered bikes). Finally, Harley® made a big improvement by adding standard tool free pre-load adjustment, so by just twisting a knob, you can set your suspension for a passenger.

Harley-Davidson® Screamin’ Eagle® Performance upgrades

If touring motorcycles aren’t your thing, don’t sweat it, Harley-Davidson® hasn’t forgotten you. This year Harley-Davidson® has revamped the Screamin’ Eagle® Performance upgrade kits, making these high-end parts available immediately for the 2017 model year bikes. If you want to give a Fat Bob a bit of extra power, a Stage I air cleaner and exhaust upgrade will help you get more out of the top end. If you really want to transform that Iron 883 into a monster, then get it outfitted with a Stage IV upgrade kit, and then get ready to hold on tight! If you’re not looking to invest in a 2017 bike, you can still take advantage of these awesome performance kits (which are now EPA Compliant in all 50 states). The Screamin’ Eagle® line is compatible with Touring, Dyna, and Softail models from the 2007 model year and newer, as well as Sportster bikes that were built in 2014 and onward. Call Willamette Valley H-D® today and we can schedule a service appointment to get your Harley-Davidson® equipped with the Screamin’ Eagle® performance parts that you need!
