MILWAUKEE, Jan. 27, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Today at X Games Aspen, Harley-Davidson unveiled the Low Rider^® S and the Harley-Davidson^® Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO)™ Pro Street Breakout^® motorcycles – two additions to its 2016 model-year lineup, which is the most powerful collection of cruisers in the brand's 113-year history.

The new 2016 Harley-Davidson Low Rider S combines Screamin' Eagle performance and Dark Custom style in a powerful new cruiser.

Raw, dark and trimmed to the essentials, the new Low Rider S motorcycle is the most powerful non-CVO™ Dyna^® cruiser ever offered by Harley-Davidson. The Screamin' Eagle^® Twin Cam 110™ engine, Screamin' Eagle^® Heavy Breather performance intake and Fat Bob-style 2-into-2 exhaust deliver 115 foot pounds of peak torque at 3500 rpm. Premium suspension and brakes complete the performance package. The new limited-edition bike joins the Fat Boy^® S and Softail Slim^® S models as the third in the new line of S series cruisers for the 2016 Harley-Davidson^® lineup.

The new CVO Pro Street Breakout motorcycle rewrites the factory-custom book with obsessive attention to styling detail. This limited-edition motorcycle has a new, darker look and utilizes cutting-edge finishes and textures. Menacing, muscular and steeped in drag racing attitude, the CVO Pro Street Breakout motorcycle matches the high-intensity performance of the Screamin' Eagle Twin Cam 110 engine with a look that is pure American street machine.

"X Games Aspen is the ideal global stage to unveil our newest motorcycles that take cruiser performance, attitude and design to a whole new level," said Shelley Paxton, Vice President of Marketing and Brand, Harley-Davidson Motor Company.
