HEAVY DUTY Magazine - September - October 2021

Bu konuda

Our favourite time of the year with days made for riding and nights made for sleeping. Unless you’re north of the Tropic of Capricorn and don’t really understand winter. Free wheelin’ across the front cover is Fergus from Gasoline Alley on his Softail not-so-Standard chopper. He’s out riding and loving life. Check out his latest creation in HEAVY DUTY #178. Dave’s been clocking up miles and living the LiveWire life for a few weeks. Wondered what it’s like to live with a LiveWire? This should answer questions. Dave also took custody of our long-term Harley-Davidson Pan America and is pretty darned happy about that! He enjoys the road less travelled and has been out playing in the dirt and mud as well as clocking up highway miles. Paul has owned a few Electra Glides and was keen to explore the Ultra Limited. The devil is in the detail and he liked what he found. Mick’s found life is simple with the Softail Slim and its classical styling and minimal frills. Days in the Saddle are what it’s all about and we’ve got a couple of them in this issue: one from Rod who checked out Strathalbyn in South Australia; and one from Phil Heath who ventured south to Rotorua in NZ. Speed Week 2021 happened and we’ve got yarns from Elliott and Cliff, two racers with different results and memories from their trip to Lake Gairdner. BMW’s R18 Classic Deluxe made its way through our collective sheds and Dave cranked out a Quick Spin on the Teutonic Tourer. We’ve got a couple of other outstanding custom Harleys, along with a classic 1924 FE, and a look back at Sportsters owned by a few of us. HEAVY DUTY #178 is on sale Thursday, 2nd September 2021 in newsagents and better bike shops.
