Part navel-gazing, part celebrating the last fifteen years of American motorcycles, we look back at a hundred editions of American-V and spin it from a modern context.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s favourite customs and classics, most influential new models and most missed departures \u2013 all of which is really barely skimming the surface: we could have done an issue dedicated to the classics, one to customs, one to roadtrips, etc, but that didn\u2019t seem to be good value \u2026 until we saw how this hung together.<\/p>\n

Bright, lively, diverse and though-provoking, shows that there\u2019s much much more to American motorcycles than an 883 Sportster and a heavyweight tourer, which is where their critics\u2019 imaginations run out of \u2026 well, imagination, I guess?<\/p>\n

And then we test a sportster and a heavyweight tourer \u2013 hahaha \u2013 although \u2018sportster\u2019 (with a small \u2018s\u2019) refers to the big S at the end of Harley\u2019s newest Low Rider, and the tourer is no Geezer-Glide, but a tarmac-rippling 116-inch bagger!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10720,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"American-V 100","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[118],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-10012","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-amv-back-issues","9":"first","10":"instock","11":"taxable","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/10012","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10012"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10720"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10012"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=10012"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=10012"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=10012"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
