Three-Wheeled Freedom
The open road beckons, the wind whispers adventure, and for riders seeking a stable and stylish touring experience, the 2024 Harley-Davidson® Freewheeler® stands tall. This three-wheeled machine seamlessly blends iconic Harley-Davidson® design with unmatched comfort and confidence-inspiring stability, making it the perfect choice for riders who crave adventure without compromise.
Unveiling a Legacy of Stability and Freedom
The Freewheeler® isn’t a new addition to the Harley-Davidson® lineup. It’s a refined and improved version of a trusted touring companion. For 2024, Harley-Davidson® focuses on enhancing the Freewheeler®’s core strengths – stability, comfort, and touring capability – while injecting a touch of modern flair to its timeless design.
The signature trike design remains, featuring a powerful Milwaukee-Eight® engine nestled within a classic batwing fairing. The dual front wheels with blackwall tires ensure a planted feel on the road, while the single rear wheel with a wider radial tire offers impressive handling and stability during cornering and maneuvering. This confidence-inspiring platform allows riders to conquer any road with ease, whether it’s a winding mountain pass or a long stretch of highway.
A Modern Touch on a Timeless Design
While the Freewheeler® retains its classic silhouette, Harley-Davidson® has incorporated subtle design updates for 2024. The most striking change comes in the form of a new blacked-out treatment. Gone are the chrome accents of previous models. The 2024 Freewheeler® embraces a bolder, more aggressive aesthetic with blacked-out finishes on the front end, tank console, powertrain, and exhaust. This creates a cohesive and modern look that complements the motorcycle’s imposing presence.
Riders can choose from a variety of paint schemes to personalize their Freewheeler®. The ever-popular Vivid Black remains an option, while a new two-tone colorway – Stone Washed White Denim with Midnight Crimson – adds a touch of sophistication and visual depth.
The Milwaukee-Eight® Heart: Power Meets Efficiency
The heart of the 2024 Freewheeler® beats with the power of the Milwaukee-Eight® 114 engine. This air-cooled V-twin powerhouse delivers exhilarating acceleration and effortless cruising power, making it ideal for navigating city streets and conquering long stretches of highway with ease. While exact figures haven’t been released yet, you can expect an impressive increase in horsepower and torque compared to previous models.
A high-performance air intake system and a throaty exhaust system work in harmony to optimize engine performance. The exhaust system ensures compliance with the latest emission standards while delivering a satisfying rumble that resonates with the Freewheeler®’s touring spirit. Despite its impressive power, the Milwaukee-Eight® 114 engine prioritizes fuel efficiency, allowing riders to explore vast distances without sacrificing performance.
Comfort Redefined: A Touring Oasis Awaits
The 2024 Freewheeler® prioritizes a comfortable touring experience for both riders and passengers. The two-up, contoured touring seat is crafted from premium materials and boasts a sculpted design that provides exceptional comfort for long journeys. The passenger backrest ensures a comfortable ride for your companion, while the spacious floorboards offer ample legroom and support.
The ergonomically designed handlebars are positioned for easy reach and comfortable hand placement, minimizing fatigue during extended rides. For added comfort, Harley-Davidson® offers a variety of rider and passenger backrest options, as well as a luggage rack, all available as dealer-installed accessories.
The Freewheeler® doesn’t neglect rider visibility. A blacked-out batwing fairing with a large windscreen provides excellent wind protection and houses a new, information-rich instrument cluster. This cluster features an analog speedometer and tachometer flanked by a digital display showcasing essential information like fuel level, odometer, trip meter, and gear indicator. Harley-Davidson®’s intuitive infotainment system, conveniently located on the handlebars, allows riders to control audio functions, phone calls, and navigation with ease (when paired with a Bluetooth headset) for a truly hands-free experience.
A Canvas for Customization: Unleash Your Inner Touring Specialist
The 2024 Freewheeler® offers a high degree of customization, allowing riders to tailor the trike to their specific touring needs and preferences. From the two-tone paint scheme options mentioned earlier to a wide range of factory-installed and dealer-installed accessories, the possibilities are endless.
Riders can personalize their Freewheeler® with a variety of chrome or blacked-out accents for various components, including the engine guards, tour pack, and exhaust system. Performance upgrades like a Screamin’ Eagle® Stage kit can further enhance the power of the Milwaukee-Eight® 114 engine, while a performance clutch can improve power delivery and control. Additionally, a selection of comfort and touring upgrades can be added to personalize the riding experience.
Harley-Davidson® offers a wide range of touring-specific accessories designed to enhance the Freewheeler®’s functionality and comfort on long journeys. These include:
