Motorcycles Built for the American Rider!
Americans love their motorcycles: especially the big cruising bikes. There is no better way to roam the open roads than straddling 600 lbs of powerful two-wheel excitement. These bikes are spectacular, beautiful and just what you need to put some distance between yourself and the crowd.
Don’t forget to enhance your custom motorcycle experience with the tires you have trusted since 1871. Continental Tire offers motorcycle tires that are specially designed for these heavy touring bikes, such as the ContiTour, with easy handling, solid behavior and a very high level of comfort. Another option is the classic custom whitewall, ContiLegend which is available a size range for many American V-Twin motorcycles. Find out more at: https://www.continental-tires.com/motorcycle/tires

Harley-Davidson Softail Standard
The Harley-Davidson Softail Standard is a new motorcycle that offers the essential cruiser experience. It’s a lean bobber with a strong attitude. The performance is nicely secured by the Softail chassis and the dynamic Milwaukee-Eight V-Twin engine (107 cu in), so it’s a great opportunity to enjoy a true and modern Harley-Davidson.

Indian Scout 100th Anniversary
This quintessential American brand wants to pay homage to the 100 year legacy of the Indian Scout with two special models. One of them is the Indian Scout 100th Anniversary. This family has stood the test of time and it’s become a one of the most iconic and influential motorcycles in the world. As a limited edition, there are only 750 units of this model worldwide, so this bike will be a collectable. This Indian Scout 100th Anniversary takes styling cues from the original Scout, such as the paint scheme (Red and gold trim) with a special 100th Anniversary medallion. Also, the leather solo seat, black spoked wheels, beach bars, and other chrome details make this ride something special.

Honda Rebel 300 / 500
The Honda Rebel has been refreshed this year for the first time since its re-launch 3 years ago making it a nice option for younger people and beginners that don’t feel ready to ride a big cruiser but still want a custom bike. The Rebel is available in two versions, both extremely accurate for easy day-to-day riding. Coming in at 364/408 pounds with a 27.2 inch seat height, the handling of this bike is one of its key strengths. Despite being a more affordable motorcycle than the big cruisers in this market, it offers the high quality features you’d expect from Honda. In addition, the 2020 Honda Rebel includes a fresh new look, LED lights, new instruments, a slipper/assist clutch and new suspension.
