Although considered very representing the souls of the bikers who want to feel free and still be appreciated on the highway, but the model fairing that blends with the lamp shell, considered quite strange. Because the model is very large and seems to be limiting visibility for motorists.

"The concept model of the fairing that blends with the light shell on this bike, certainly not trace the origin of the old model. Designs have gone through the process of testing and was able to reduce wind resistance on the rider., But also at the same time with the comfortable air flow," said a statement from the technical division of HD.

Another feature that is not less interesting is the placement of two LED as the main light. There is also an infotainment system with touch screen technology. This system can also be controlled via the remote directly at the bottom of the handlebars for easy concentration while on the road.
