2012 Harley-Davidson® Softail® Blackline®

The 2012 Harley-Davidson® Softail® Blackline® FXS is a modern long custom motorbike with a minimalist, low profile and plenty of vintage Harley-Davidson® parts. New for 2012, the Harley® Blackline® features a new larger air-cooled Twin Cam 103™ Harley® engine with 6 speed cruise drive tranmission, providing more power for passing, hill-climbing, and riding with passenger and luggage. The FXS Blackline® features a rigid 'hardtail' rear suspension and narrow rear profile. This contemporary custom bike is slung low with an aggressive riding position that is both cool and comfortable. The Harley® Blackline® is reminiscent of the glory days of Harley-Davidson® motorcycling—the black headlight, slammed speedo mounted on the triple clamp, round air cleaner cover and black horseshoe oil tank are reminiscent of pre-war H-D® parts and accessories; the fuel tank with small tank graphics are inspired by the 1977 Low Rider motorcycle; and the black cylinders with gray heads and black rocker covers is a look you'd find on the Panheads and Shovelheads of the 1950's and 60's. The 2012 H-D® Softail® Blackline® features a lot of blacked out parts and not a ton of extras—everything is functional and ready for the road.
