What’s arguably more American than a bunch of loud, boisterous motorcycles? Well, muscle cars of course. In a new limited-edition series, Harley-Davidson is celebrating muscle car culture and its racing heritage with the introduction of Fast Johnnie, the 2023 addition to the Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection of limited-run bikes. These bikes are decked out with factory-direct custom paint and graphic treatments, amongst other upgrades.

Harley-Davidson Introduces Fast Johnnie Limited Edition Series

IN Harley-Davidson, Fast Johnnie, Limited Edition, Series

It’s full American pride here, with high-performance muscle cars inspiring a limited-edition trio of motorcycles.


Known for their rowdy appearance and biker gang aesthetics, Harley Davidson is a brand that is instantly recognisable on the roads. It's a brand that spans more than a century and has seen little change from its original roots. Big bike, big engine. Big sounds. You cannot go wrong with this formula.

Why are Harley Davidson Motorcycles So Popular?

IN HarleyDavidson, UnitedWeRide, HarleyDavidsonAsia, AHD2022, AsiaHarleyDays, HarleyOwnersGroup, Motorcycles

Ask anyone on the street to name a motorcycle brand, and chances are the words "Harley" and "Davidson" will pop up.


That explains why, even in the sunset of the car’s life, the brand has just unveiled special editions of pretty much its entire model range. With no significant mechanical improvements on the horizon for the Mini family, this is a quick and simple way to keep the cars in the headlines and generate some buzz over them. Paint-and-sticker specials they may be, but that doesn’t mean you should just write them off as just a cynical marketing exercise. Mini Cooper S Pat Moss Edition

The ubiquitous 3 Series has been famous worldwide as BMW's primary people-mover since 1975. Currently in it's seventh generation and codenamed G20, it's getting a mid-cycle refresh, or what BMW calls Life Cycle Impulse, or LCI. Outside The LCI G20 is set to come standard with full LED headlights, with adaptive LED headlights optionally available. The latter will feature a cornering light function, non-dazzling matrix high beam, dynamic headlight range control and variable light distribution to make driving at night that much safer for the driver as well as other road u sers. The headlights themselves will be sleeker and sharper-looking than those on the current pre-facelift G20.

Consider this... ... before scoffing at Mutt Motorcycles' lack of Class 2 options. If eyeball-searing speed and hair-raising acceleration are one's goals, the Yamahas, Kawasakis, KTMs and BMWs of the motorbike world can satisfy those desires. Instead, think of newly-minted riders. Not necessarily, but likely, in their late 30s or older. They've just gotten their Class 2B or 2A licence, the latter possibly after a long hiatus post the former sans street-riding experience in the interim, and are keen to finally get a bike after having been stymied for one reason or another earlier in life. Maybe as a daily rider, which Mutt's range is more than capable of doing, but also one to call their own. One that's as comfortable cruising down Orchard Road and being ogled by onlookers as it is tackling twists and turns on a weekend Tour de Singapour Street Edition ride around our little red dot. Originating from Digbeth, Birmingham in the UK, and having spent over 15 years building custom bikes, Mutt Motorcycles is founded on the ethos to deliver bikes that are easy to ride and maintain, affordable to buy and run, whilst giving the same feel and sound of a classically styled custom machine. Mutt Motorcycles applies the same build quality and style to small cc bikes that are easy to throw around city streets and country lanes, making the custom bike scene that much more accessible to more riders. Having spent many years making larger high-end custom bikes, Mutt Motorcycles applies the same attention to detail to the smaller bikes, offering endless possibilities for personalized detail changes. Mutt Motorcycles are brand new bikes designed in-house and built-to-order as standard or customized to the owner's preference. With that in mind, let's look at...

Secondly, any potential pillion-riding opportunity was also out of the question due to an aggravated lower back from the weekend prior. Don’t ask... However, one doesn’t have to ride the Pan America to see that Harley-Davidson is likely on to a winner here.

I’ve been driving UD Trucks for one and half years, but there are so many things I learnt for the first time in this training.”

The standard F12 already has a 6.5 liter V12 with all of the latest technologies, but the TDF builds on that with a new variable intake manifold contributing to a 40hp and 15Nm gain, bringing the grand total to 780hp and 705Nm of torque. Despite being bereft of modern turbocharger technology, eighty percent of torque is available from just 2500rpm. Yet the redline is set at a scintillating 8900rpm, which should yield the evocative soundtrack one would expect from a V12 Ferrari.

When BMW first introduced the F10 M5, many complained about the relative lack of exhaust noise as compared to its V10-powered predecessor.
