Що повинні знати покупці
Milwaukee-Eight Reliability
The 2018+ Milwaukee-Eight 107/114 engine is widely regarded as Harley's most reliable modern powerplant, running cooler and smoother than the Twin Cam it replaced. Owners report fewer heat-related issues and longer service intervals, making it a strong long-term ownership choice.
Watch the Belt & Compensator
Inspect the final drive belt for fraying or tension issues, as neglected belts can fail unexpectedly and run $300–$500 to replace. The compensator sprocket (a known wear item) can also develop a clunking noise and should be checked on higher-mileage examples.
Strong Resale Value
Fat Boy and Heritage Softail models from this generation hold resale value exceptionally well, typically retaining 70–80% of MSRP after three years. Limited color editions and low-mileage examples often command near-new prices in the used market.
