Key specifications
Overview
Introducing the 2020 Harley-Davidson Freewheeler, a striking blend of classic American styling and modern engineering, designed to redefine the custom-cruiser segment. As a trike, it stands out in Harley’s iconic lineup, catering to riders seeking stability without sacrificing the thrill of the open road. Priced at an approachable US$27,999, the Freewheeler is not just a motorcycle; it’s a lifestyle choice for those who want the freedom of two wheels with the added confidence of three. At the heart of the Freewheeler lies a robust 1868cc V2 four-stroke engine, producing a formidable 100 horsepower at 5020 RPM and an impressive torque of 165.43 Nm at just 2250 RPM. This powertrain is designed for effortless cruising, delivering exhilarating acceleration while maintaining a smooth and comfortable ride. With a 6-speed gearbox and an electronic sequential port fuel injection system, the Freewheeler offers a seamless transmission experience that allows riders to tackle both city streets and winding country roads with ease. The oil and air cooling system ensures the engine runs efficiently even in demanding conditions, making every journey a pleasure rather than a chore. The Freewheeler is packed with features that enhance both comfort and control. Equipped with cruise control, riders can enjoy long stretches of highway without the constant need to adjust the throttle. The dual parking brake, activated by foot, adds an extra layer of security when parked. The front suspension utilizes a telescopic fork, ensuring a smooth ride over bumps, while the powerful ABS brakes provide confidence in any weather conditions. Available in vibrant color options—including Vivid Black and Stiletto Red—the Freewheeler not only performs well but also makes a bold statement on the road. **
