While remoteness is a big part of the attraction to this
end of the earth island – not everyone has the time on their
hands to BYO bike which involves getting to Melbourne
and then a 10 hour one way ferry across the Bass Strait.
Solution?
Southern Riders Tasmania. We’ll have you FIFO Har-
ley-ing as you soon as you hop off the plane.
We picked the Harleys best suited to the terrain – the
Road Glide Special, Heritage Classic 114 and Sports Glide.
All with the Milwaukee 8 engine, with plenty of power to
get you up the long mountain passes and shorter hillside
twistys even when riding two up with a week’s worth of
luggage. Adjustable mono-shock suspension provides re-
duced vibrations transferring from the engine through to
the new stiffer softail frame adding greater comfort and
manoeuvrability. Plus – perhaps most importantly, you
get the cool factor, and Instagram snaps to impress.
Local Tasmanians renting latest model Harleys and giv-
ing our tips on the best rides, pit stops and hidden gems.
