Three Best Cruisers You Will See in 2014

Just alike sports, standard and touring motorcycles we will also see some dazzling new cruisers during this year that will take your breath away. However, this would not be the first time that cruisers will mesmerise the riders with their grace, as the amazing two wheel bike has been doing so for nearly a century now. However, in contrast to the 1930s and 1960s cruisers, the modern range of this machine offers more features, comfort, durability and style. Nevertheless, as compared to sports, standard and touring motorcycles, cruisers have limited power and turning ability.

Moreover, the seating position of the riders in cruisers is also different from rest of the bikes because the high handle bar makes them keep their hands up and front mounted foot pegs keep their feet in forward position. In spite of these imperfections, cruisers can still be found on the wish list of many riders. Therefore, till this day several motorcycle makers are producing cruisers in heavy numbers for which riders can buy traditional open face helmets from jsaccessories.

Below we have listed three cruisers of 2014 because they are ranked as the best bikes in their class and riders have high expectations from them.

Harley-Davidson Sportster Superlow

When it comes to cruisers Harley-Davidson is ranked as the top brand in the category as its uniquely styled motorcycles are hard to copy. Therefore, many bikers love to own a bike that has a Harley-Davidson name written on its tank. Unfortunately, since Harley is a top brand therefore, its bikes do not come cheap. However, the leading motorcycle maker has solved this problem by introducing its entry-level cruiser the Sportster Superlow that will give you the true Harley experience in less price.


The entry level cruiser of Harley will be offered at a price of $8,249 and it will come with the lowest seat height. This trait is likely to make the Sportster Superlow popular among the shorter people, who love to own a cruiser. Aside from its low seat height the Superlow also offers several new improvements, including the optional ABS braking system.

Indian Chief Classic

Another classic cruiser that has remained a favourite of many bikers is Indian Chief Classic is also going to see the first light in 2014, as the maker of Victory bikes Polaris is re-launching this American brand. Therefore, to win the hearts of customers Polaris has not only incorporated the powerful 111-cubic-inch V-twin engine in the new Indian Chief Classic, but also gave it a brand new retro style body. More importantly the engine Indian Classic has got a different and original sound. Plus it can produce a torque of 119 lb-ft.

The price of the new cruiser is $18,999 and Polaris will make it available for sale in three different models: the Chieftain, Vintage and Classic. All three bikes will come with saddle bags and leather seats, but the best feature of these Indian Classic Chief motorcycles is that they all have keyless starting.

Star Bolt

To compete with Harley-Davidson, Japanese motorcycle maker Star, a division of Yamaha, has introduced its own version of Sportster. This brand new model of Japanese entry-level cruiser is called Star Bolt and it will compete against Harley’s Iron 833. Although, it’s a clone of American cruiser, but Star has managed to make the Bolt better than Harley’s Sportster in many ways. For instance the 942cc twin engine in the Bolt produces more torque than Sportster, so it is more swift than Harley. Moreover, the suspension of the Bolt is also a cut above than Harley. On top of it the classic and stylish Bolt will cost you slightly less than the Iron 833 of Harley, as its price will be $7,990.
