Over the past century, Harley-Davidson has cemented its status as the most iconic motorcycle brand in the world.

From long-distance tourers to award-winning racing bikes, Harley-Davidson motorcycles are always the perfect blend of superior performance and sensational style.

The brand has produced several memorable rides over the past 100 years. These are 10 of the best.

1. Fat Boy 30th Anniversary Limited Edition

Nothing screams iconic like the original Fat Boy. The muscular 2020 model – lighter and sleeker than its predecessor – is bound to go down in Harley history.

This limited-edition model is a celebration of the Fat Boy’s legacy.

The smooth Milwaukee-Eight Big Twin engine coupled with a lightweight Softail frame give you the crisp throttle and responsive ride you’d expect from a Fat Boy, but on another level.

2. 2002 VRSCA V-Rod

Need a reminder of Harley-Davidson’s drag-racing past? This motorcycle is it.

Its high-tech construction and sleek design made it a benchmark in the motorcycle world.

With speeds of up to 225 km/h, this V-Rod definitely isn’t your average early-2000s motorcycle.

3. 2012 FLHR Road King

Unlike most long-distance tourers, the Road King is equipped with all the premium features of a modern motorcycle (and a detachable windshield).

It comes standard with ABS, adjustable rear suspension and electronic cruise control. Few road alternatives are as comfortable, well-built and great to look at.

4. 2009 FLHT Electra Glide Standard

The quintessential long-haul ride, this motorcycle is equipped with key touring features like saddlebags, a fork-mounted touring fairing and a passenger pillion reshaped for comfort.

It may not have the sleek finishes and shiny chrome of other Harley bikes, but it earns its reputation for unmatched stability.

5. 1915 Harley-Davidson 11F

One of the most innovative and advanced motorcycles in the world during its heyday, the 11F revolutionised motorcycle manufacture.

It was the first Harley to have a three-speed transmission, an automatic oiler and large intake valves that helped the bike reach speeds of up to 120km/h.

6. 2010 Harley-Davidson Dyna Wide Glide

This iconic Harley, a thoughtful reinvention of a 70s-style chopper, is all about image. Its old-school styling and low stretch aesthetic make it a motorcycle with undeniable attitude.

It may not be the most practical motorcycle on the market, but it gets extra points for being an incredibly exciting ride.

7. 1958 Duo-Glide

The Duo-Glide is a charmingly retro model that’s regularly rated among the best bikes of all time.

Even today, this 60-year-old bike is considered one of the smoothest you can ride on the road.

8. 1990 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy

The original Fat Boy left an impression like few other motorcycles have. Simple, elegant and eye-catchingly monochromatic (it’s nicknamed the “grey ghost”), this bike pushed the boundaries of motorcycle styling.

It may be three decades old, but the 1990 Fat Boy’s timeless good looks still make it the hottest thing on two wheels.

9. 1970 Harley-Davidson XR-750

The 1970 XR-750 is high up on the list of most successful racing bikes of all time. Just 200 of these sought-after bikes were built, with only 60 left in existence today.

Stunt performer Evel Knievel began jumping the XR-750 at the height of his career. It featured in all of his record-breaking jumps between 1970 and 1977.

10. 1983 Harley-Davidson XR1000

Power meets performance in this classic motorcycle, coveted by Harley enthusiasts.

The XR1000 aimed to deliver the best attributes of the legendary XR750 in a motorcycle that was legal to drive on the streets.

It succeeded and today remains a valuable collectible prized for its uniqueness.
