Why You Need a Harley-Davidson® Softail® Cruiser
Nowhere else but in the Harley-Davidson® Softail® family will you find true American-built muscle with the authentic style that’s made the cruiser a classic. Rip up city streets and let loose a guttural growl of an air-cooled engine to let everyone know you’ve arrived. These cruisers are the foundation of Harley style and come from a long history of customization that makes them stand out amongst a crowd of sameness. At Lumberjack Harley-Davidson, we love our Softail bikes. They’re some of the most awesome motorcycles out there, and every year brings a bunch of new tech and upgrades that make us fall in love all over again.

Classic Style
The Softail is what you think of when you think classic American motorcycle. There’s no arguing this fact. The easy-to-recognize laid-back riding posture will put you at command of the road, and extended front fork and flashy finishes make it difficult to blend in. You’ll turn heads whether you want that throwback industrial look or a slick modern model. Whatever you’re after, there’s a Softail for you! Great for short rides and cruising, these bikes will turn heads and keep you low to the road.
Modern Power
The Softail family aren’t sport bikes, but they sure pack in the horses. You’ll get large displacement engines with on-demand power. These bikes are tuned for low-end torque to give riders that close-to-the-ground feel and outstanding control at low-to-mid-range RPMs. Each pull of the throttle delivers a meaty roar and easy riding perfection for cruising around town. Be confident that when you purchase a Softail, you’re getting a powerful machine that’ll rip up any road if given the chance.
The Perfect Custom Platform
All the Softail models look killer right off the assembly line, but many riders want to customize them as soon as possible. Once you pick out a Softail you like, you can tackle the styling or performance, changing the look and the feel of the ride. Your average cruiser doesn’t have a great turning ability due to their low-slung design, but customization can make it easier to lean the bike during turns. You can alter the look by adding or removing parts and fixtures. Whatever you want to alter about your bike, your friends at Lumberjack H-D can help you choose the right customization packages for the model you have!
Choppers are one of the classic garage-built customs popularized during the 60s. They’re chopped or cut-down versions of production cruisers modified as part of personal projects by veteran riders or mechanics. They’re often a source of pride and accomplishment, a look-what-I-made display. You can spot choppers by their raked-out forks, small fuel tanks, and high handlebars. These are not efficient riding machines, but there’s nothing else out there with the same inherent sense of history and style.
There’s no beating the classic style of a Softail cruiser. From their heritage of garage-built customers to the modern power and performance you expect, the Softail is a suitable throne for anyone who wants to be the king of the road.
