Harley-Davidson 2016 CVO Pro Street Breakout

Harley-Davidson 2016 CVO Pro Street Breakout review vs 2014 CVO

Looks like Harley-Davidson 2016 CVO is incorporating more and more of the chopper look into their production bikes.
It’s nice to see that they finally got their engine up to a 110 and the rear tire up to a 240! I also like the fact that on this model they got rid of their huge speedometer control setup that was in the middle of a lot of their gas tanks.

Walk around and Start up of the 2016 Pro Street Breakout compared directly with the 2014 CVO Breakout. The 2016 CVO Pro Street Breakout is a mid-model-year 2016 release (january). The Pro Street Introduces new features such as inverted forks and dual disc brakes to the Breakout model.

Currently, I’m writing an 2006 American Ironhorse Texas Chopper that has an S&S 111 engine (actually they had three options for engines from 111 117 or 124) and a nice wide 280 rear tire.  Plus, the Texas Chopper came standard with two front disc breaks. So, it just took Harley about 10 years to start to incorporate some of these features into their bikes. Read more

Julian Motorcycle Ride

Julian Motorcycle Ride

A motorcycle ride from San Diego Harley-Davidson to Julian California on a great San Diego day.

1869 gold was discovered  in  Coleman Creek, just west of Julian. Even today, if you know where to go, you can still find a few gold flakes in Colman Creek. Today, Julian is more of a tourist town, better known for its apple pies than for gold mining. Though, there is an inactive gold mine that does provide tours for the tourist, right in the heart of town. Read more

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

David “Dave” Mann (September 10, 1940 – September 11, 2004)was a California graphic artist whose paintings celebrated biker culture, and choppers.
