Introducing the 2010 Dirico Flyer, a striking embodiment of American touring heritage that seamlessly blends classic aesthetics with modern performance. Emerging from the lineage of Red Wing Motorcycles, Dirico has carved out its own identity in the motorcycle market, appealing to riders seeking a unique combination of style and functionality. With its distinctive design and a focus on long-distance comfort, the Flyer is a compelling choice for enthusiasts looking to conquer the open road in style. At the heart of the Dirico Flyer is a robust 1442.15 cc V2, four-stroke engine, a powerhouse that delivers an exhilarating riding experience. Fueled by state-of-the-art Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection, the Flyer boasts smooth throttle response and impressive torque, making it a joy to ride whether you're cruising down the highway or navigating through city streets. The 5-speed gearbox provides seamless gear transitions, while the belt final drive ensures a low-maintenance and efficient power transfer. With Harley-Davidson®'s Twin Cam B engine under the hood, the Flyer offers a rich, throaty roar that resonates with enthusiasts while delivering reliable performance on every journey. The craftsmanship of the Dirico Flyer is evident in its thoughtful features and technology. Built on a sturdy Kraft-Tech frame, this touring motorcycle promises a stable ride that can handle a variety of terrains. The braking system, consisting of single discs at both the front and rear, ensures confidence-inspiring stopping power. For added comfort during long rides, the Flyer comes equipped with an H-D Bawler Solo Seat, designed to provide ample support and a relaxed riding position. The electric starter adds a modern touch, making it easy to get on the road at a moment's notice. **
