The basic concept of the 2017 launch of these engines is about more power and more comfort for the riders. Basically, that is what we are aiming at. If you look at this engine, the Milwaukee Eight is a ground-up engine. It has been built based on the feedback that we got from our core riders across the world. This a great step forward in the touring line-up that we have. The engine is much more refined but it still retains the feel and the sound of a typical Harley-Davidson. I’m sure you can certainly see the difference between the old engine and the new one. It’s not just an improvemen­t; it’s a drasticall­y different unit that gives you more power. You can also feel the change in the vibration and the noise and even the heat management and the way that’s being controlled.
