2011 Harley Davidson Blackline Review
Carved from standard models of Harley, Customs adopted a bare knuckles dark attitude expressed through nonsense style minimalist spirit highlighted by a black-out and long ends. Harley tacit directive seems to work in this sub-line means that the Motor Company will pay homage to (while leveraging) subcultures around Harleys many - such as cork stage, for example.
Blackline new silhouette will raise awareness of cycling Heritage Softail, but this latest model to join the Dark Custom series sports a lot of chopping and bobbing seen the likes of 48, and the Nightster Iron 883
Blackline short wings, small discrete marks, light and easy to follow the example of many notes of dark style of the bike as. One side of the instrument (a speedometer with LCD overlay that allows a pilot to choose odometer, Odon, the clock gear position, with tachometer or miles on the battery) placed in the steering head is a tank outlet mounted instruments are in current Softail line.

This minimization of functions is another indicator of allegiance to the credo Blackline less is more dark customs.
Continuing the theme is dark black rims, black fork, black headlight nacelle, black mirrors, black lights (with the rear end are both back office - first seen at night Forester and carried on iron 883 and 48) Black rear pulley, belt guard, rear fender struts, etc., etc., while the black line is quite similar to black-out scheme, it is not completely refrain from chrome. The airline "of the filter cover, the brake pedal arm and the cover block lifting is bright, while those parts Sportster based on darks are not.
A Harley Barely Legal
And possible, "Line is a wheel, Larry Flynt might find attractive.
When designers and engineers at Harley finished crafts this bike, they decided to give her barely legal distance between the mirrors - they just meet the minimum requirement of the DOT. The mirrors are attached to "divide and slide" handlebars, brings the hands of the driver unusually close for a Harley, and appears also to push the boundaries of the limited permissible.
The wrinkled appearance is itself a key benchmark of style and an instant crowd Blackline to direct current bikes cork and builders often ignore the law with their forms of rebellion.

Another standout feature is the standout until it begins to look old-fashioned narrow the rear wheel. As we said Kevin Duke Blackline unveiling in January this year, Harley-installed 144 mm 16-inch sandwich from the back, while a narrow 21-inch - common price cruiser - runs the front. As Kevin said, unveiling the report, this is a new tight ring "is the middle finger is tired of the fat-tire business."
Blackline sure to read the preview of the details in depth and to hear a sample of the team that created the Harley.
Feet forward, fists inward and forward, Go Feel Lawless
They are generally law-abiding citizen, but from the moment your Hiney throw in a pound of Black Line dished seat than 26.1 cm from the floor - the minimum height of the saddle of a Harley-dual offering - if you feel a internal rule-breaker off. Put the boots fitted with taps, lean forward to block illegal far-sighted, closely spaced bars and let the trend of the torque-biased Twin Cam 96B are carried on the road again to unite the revolutionary ideas of the bad slip biker clubs in your mind .
At first glance, the highway patrol or local agent of your state of mind of evil derailed, slamming back to reality when you realize youd much rather finish paying the mortgage that the race of man. But you get the picture

Despite the commitment to look at the driving position, Blackline provides a nice perch comfortably. However, even if youre under 5 feet 10 inches, or less than 30-inch inseam, it can feel like youre stretching, both in the bars or pegs. The ability to stretch on one side, but all the drivers as soon as possible to find a flat foot stuff easy to quit. If ergos will reveal the lack of a highway during the sessions when windblast 80 mph can begin to tax their grip on the bars.
Although the driving position is not as extreme as the fold of their riders put in customs, Blackline ergos, depending on the height of the driver, bicyclist only the strength of this position is known as C horse so wonderfully that acts as a parachute to capture a large amount of wind.
It was during the stint freeway I noticed how well damped rear suspension was more than most shots, but large - such as expansion joints mutant - which have nothing to most of the Cruiser punting away from the drivers seat . Now, these mirrors ...

Although the style of mirror is placed close to production base bobbed wheel, rear view is compromised - to the point that I got a new appreciation for the view offers some of the sport bike mirrors (which often make fun of the sport bikes for their limited rear view).
Thus, limiting the visual field is also the Black Line and the mirrors that I often had to raise the left or right while pulling both hands inward as much as possible to see more of what was behind me. Harley usually boast a good mirror, UM, performance, but this style-conscious set of weight restrictions ornamental purposes only.
Twin air-cooled Big Stuff familiar to those who have started, he weighed 96 inches, but it involves the reopening of many advantages thatve kept this engine in production for the past years several models. Before my race Blackline it had been a while since my last trip on a Harley large caliber, and I found its sweetness, torquey power is ready at any time, regardless of gear selection, or revolutions per minute, pleasant and amusing reminder just what a turbine engine is a good cruiser.

EFI smooth power response is not immediate as perhaps a modern sports tourer motorcycle or standard, but the main effect of inertia of the Twin engine keeps digging in its deep well of torque. Even while in Top Gear at highway cruising speeds, Twin Cam 96B propels forward acceleration Blackline-consciously respectable when your action on the shifter says, "Gimme more! Now!" Milwaukee motor.
If cruisers usually have a well-known limiting factor is the clearance angle, ie how far you can fall into a turn, until you hear and feel: grinding on asphalt .
Does not take much effort at the time the auger is Blackline footrest antennas in the concrete during a turn, but to be fair, the clearance angle does not seem to be too low unless I turned a corner cruises either in the canyons or city.
So little effort Blackline address is. With the fat rear tires of the ruling class for so long, you may still not ready to take on the look of the rear wheel "skinny." But trust us when we say that the width of the rim lends favorably to manipulation.
With real estate rubber still requires energy Blackline less than the amendment to the initial control input and the cycle is not showing a desire to right itself in the middle of the corner (as you have to fight the bike to keep his line in a game) and so many cruisers 200mm rear tire tends to do. With a considerable length of 66.5 inches between the wheel axles and steering geometry very relaxed 30 degree tilt and 4.84 inches of trail for handling Blackline neutral and will manage belies its empty weight 683 kilos.

Stop running, the engine performance is normal Harley riders are used to: with enough power to feel good at the lever. But give the front brake lever a warm deal with the four fingers and a clamp and the disc will be in the Dark Custom coil quickly.
In addition, Harley made available ABS Black Line - a feature usually the realm of a range of business VRSC and Touring. Unfortunately, the optional ABS, which in 2010 is generally added to the $ 845 MSRP of some models, is now available at Black Line only as part of the $ 1195 security bundle includes the near-keyless fob. Packet-only prices following this model, where ABS is an option to select 2011 models.
She rocked and black is the new game, but only two Want to Play

Black-as-sin Vivid Black Line Black retails for $ 15,499, while the Cool Blue Pearl / Vivid Black and Sedona Orange / Black clear price tags are marked with $ 15,998. Otherwise, the color of the color settings are about 3/4ths of the fuel - another system is a custom black-brown heart-line.
Some might say that the high-ish bars ape hanger style front tires and wide at the Victory Ball Upper keep it in direct competition with the Black Line. But the inspiration Upper Ball bobber clear as day that the case, and said that victory is interested in a share of trade volume in the dark customs.
A model of best fit for superior Harley Ball is the bone of the Dark Custom Cross. Unfortunately, we have good reason to believe that the Cross Bones is the HD 2012 lineup card.
High-Ball Victory is powered by 106 cubic inch, 6-speed 106 Freedom V-Twin. Gains and Harley comparos we did, we know that even if not as silky smooth as Harley Twin Cam, Double victory wheel produces a very low power more - as at least 20 hp and 20 Nm over Vee 96B.
Then consider the high ball MSRP $ 13,499. Moreover, the victory is the only major producer of cruise passengers bobbed to take this theme, the production level.
