CUSTOM VEHICLE OPERATIONS (CVO) UNVEILS POTENT NEW SCREAMIN' EAGLE V-ROD Boosts Performance of the Harley-Davidson Power Cruiser

MILWAUKEE (July 15, 2004) - The 2005 VRSCSE Screamin' Eagle V-Rod developed by the Harley-Davidson Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO) team features high-performance engine modifications and a host of special custom components that make this limited-edition V-Rod an even more powerful force among power-cruiser motorcycles.

The Harley-Davidson CVO program creates low-volume, custom motorcycles produced by skilled technicians in special assembly areas at the Harley-Davidson plants in York, Pa., and Kansas City, Mo. Approximately 2,400 examples of the 2005 Screamin' Eagle V-Rod will be manufactured at the Kansas City Vehicle and Powertrain Operations facility. The suggested U.S. retail price for the Screamin' Eagle V-Rod is $25,495 ($25,595 in California).

The Screamin' Eagle V-Rod is powered by a "big-bore" version of the standard liquid-cooled, fuel-injected 60-degree Revolution V-Twin engine. New cylinders and matching pistons increase the bore from 100mm to 105mm, and displacement from 1130cc to 1250cc. The cylinder heads are CNC ported for better intake and exhaust flow, and cam timing is optimized. The result is a 10 percent power increase over the standard Revolution engine. The engine is dressed with new Screamin' Eagle cylinder badges and a special Custom Vehicle Operations emblem on the clutch release cover.

Special custom features of the Screamin' Eagle V-Rod start with a choice of three exclusive color-and-graphics combinations: Candy Blue and Dark Candy Blue, Two-Tone Candy Cherry, and Electric Orange and Black. Color is applied to the airbox cover, fenders and radiator shroud. New upper and lower side covers are chrome plated. The hydroformed tubular perimeter frame receives a color-matched powdercoat. A new airbox cover features an inset chrome console holding an LED display for the fuel gauge, indicator lights and a clock.

Controls are revised to include a new forged, chrome plated handlebar riser, clamp and instrument bracket which support a traditional speedometer and tachometer with spun-aluminum faces. The aerodynamic projector-beam headlight is mounted in a new chrome shroud and has a chrome bucket. Handlebars are 1.25-inch-diameter and feature internal wiring.

Other special components found on the Screamin' Eagle V-Rod include new chrome forged-aluminum five-spoke Reactor wheels and matching Reactor rear sprocket, new muffler end-caps, and a new custom seat and passenger pillion.

Components from the Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Parts and Genuine Motor Accessories Catalog featured on the Screamin' Eagle V-Rod include: chrome swing arm; chrome upper belt guard and lower debris deflector; chrome hand and foot controls; coated braided stainless steel control cables, clutch and brake lines; and a chrome side stand. Each Screamin' Eagle V-Rod also includes a special CVO key and a CVO storage cover.

NEW SCREAMIN' EAGLE FAT BOY ROCKS THE BOULEVARD-- Custom Components and 103 Stroker Muscle Transform the Popular Softail

MILWAUKEE (July 15, 2004) - The Harley-Davidson Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO) crew has infused the new 2005 limited-edition FLSTFSE Screamin' Eagle Fat Boy with rowdy performance and a lean, urban custom profile. Based on the popular Harley-Davidson FLSTFI Fat Boy, the Screamin' Eagle Fat Boy features a Screamin' Eagle 103 Stroker Twin Cam engine tuned to crank out more than 100 ft. lbs. of torque, special custom colors with metal grind accents, and a new steel seat.

The Harley-Davidson CVO program creates low-volume, custom motorcycles produced by a hand-picked team of technicians in a special assembly area at the Harley-Davidson plants in York, Pa., and Kansas City, Mo. Approximately 3,400 examples of the 2005 Screamin' Eagle Fat Boy will be manufactured at the York Vehicle Operations facility. The suggested U.S. retail price for the Screamin' Eagle Fat Boy is $27,995 ($28,095 in California).

The Screamin' Eagle 103 Stroker Twin Cam displaces 103 cubic inches (1690cc) and is the largest displacement engine ever offered in a production Harley-Davidson motorcycle. In the Screamin' Eagle Fat Boy, it replaces the standard Twin Cam 88B engine, but retains that engine's precise fuel-injected throttle response. The hand-built engine is created using Screamin' Eagle big-bore cylinders and a new flywheel assembly, piston and balance shaft that combine to increase bore and stroke from 3.75 x 4.00 inches to 3.87 x 4.37 inches. The engine also features a teardrop shaped chrome air-cleaner cover over a Stage 1 air cleaner kit and a heavy-duty starter. The exhaust is routed through new slash-down mufflers with chrome heat shields and a heavy-duty clutch is hydraulically controlled.

The Screamin' Eagle Fat Boy is offered in three two-tone color combinations on the tank and fenders: Platinum Mist and Slate, Candy Cobalt and Starlight Black, and Electric Cherry and Vivid Black. A metal grind finish accents all color combinations. This is the first Harley-Davidson motorcycle to feature this radical custom element. The frame, frame inserts and swingarm are color-matched to the body paint. This Fat Boy also hugs the boulevard on a lowered rear suspension.

A key styling feature is a new steel pan-style seat with a decorative chrome pillion. A passenger pillion will be offered as an accessory through Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Accessories.

A new accessory collection debuts on the Screamin' Eagle Fat Boy and includes mirrors, strut covers, rear brake pedal, footboard inserts, shift lever, shifter linkage and derby cover. A 1.25-inch handlebar with internal wiring is mounted on new risers, and the handlebar clamp includes a mount for a drag-style tachometer. A chromed front end , axle nut covers, Softail chrome front spoiler, chrome license plate and chrome lower belt guard are among the many chrome and custom components sourced from Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Parts and Genuine Motor Accessories to complete the Screamin' Eagle Fat Boy. A Harley-Davidson alarm system with siren and a special CVO key and CVO storage cover are standard equipment with this custom motorcycle.

The Harley-Davidson CVO program creates low-volume, custom motorcycles produced by a select team of technicians in a special assembly area at the Harley-Davidson plants in York, Pa., and Kansas City, Mo. Approximately 3,500 examples of the 2005 Screamin' Eagle Electra Glide will be manufactured at the York Vehicle Operations facility. The suggested U.S. retail price for the Screamin' Eagle Electra Glide is $29,995 ($30,185 California).

Based on the fuel-injected FLHTCI Electra Glide Classic, the 2005 Screamin' Eagle Electra Glide is offered in three new color combinations: Sunrise Yellow Pearl and Stingray Silver, Two-Tone Candy Cherry, and Two-Tone Candy Teal. Each paint scheme includes a color-matched inner fairing panel, fairing lowers and fuel-tank console inserts. Lettering on the derby and timer covers is also color-matched.

The exhaust features touring mufflers with billet end caps.

The fuel-injected Screamin' Eagle 103 Stroker Twin Cam engine displaces 103 cubic inches (1690cc) and is the largest-displacement engine offered in a production Harley-Davidson motorcycle. The engine is hand-built using Screamin' Eagle big-bore cylinders and a stroker flywheel and rod assembly that combine to increase bore and stroke from 3.75 x 4.00 inches to 3.87 x 4.37 inches. Compression is bumped from 8.9:1 to 9.0:1. The engine is tuned to produce more than 100 ft. lbs. of torque at 3500 rpm, a 20 percent increase over the stock Twin Cam 88 engine.

The Screamin' Eagle Electra Glide hugs the road on a Profile Low Rear Suspension kit and lowered front suspension. To handle the powerful engine, the drivetrain is upgraded with a high-performance hydraulically actuated clutch, an oil cooler with chrome cover, and a high-torque starter. Brake and clutch lines and the throttle cable housings are braided-and-coated stainless steel. Passenger and rider footboard inserts, handgrips, the brake pedal pad and the shifter pegs are all from the Stealth Collection by Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Accessories.
