Harley-Davidson launches Tobacco Fade paint job for three models
The CVO, Icons, and Enthusiast collections represent Harley-Davidson's trio of limited, unique edition motorcycles. The Enthusiast project, the most recent addition following last year's Fast Johnnie for 2024, unveils its second lineup with a distinguishing feature focused solely on the paint schemes. Technically, all three models maintain their original specifications.

This year's Enthusiast collection, named Tobacco Fade, boasts paintwork in varying shades of brown, echoing the classic, warm wood finishes first popularized by rock and roll instruments like guitars, basses, and drums in the 60s. The gradient hues and sharp lines embody a classic aesthetic perfectly aligned with Harley-Davidson's style. The design also features vintage-inspired logos on the tank, alongside details such as a vinyl record-themed medallion on the fuel tank, a stylized guitar pick illustration on the front fender, and the Enthusiast logo on the rear fender or trunk.
The Enthusiast series consistently draws inspiration from American culture of the past, with the previous Fast Johnnie project paying homage to the muscle cars era more than fifty years ago.
As with the earlier edition, the unique paint job will grace three models, each capped at 2000 units. From the 2023 lineup, only the Low Rider ST continues in this series, joined now by the Tobacco Fade embellished Ultra Limited and the three-wheeled Tri Glide Ultra.
The addition of the Tobacco Fade design incurs an extra charge depending on the model: approximately $2700 for the Low Rider ST, about $4050 for the Ultra Limited, and around $5400 for the Tri Glide Ultra. Orders for the Enthusiast series models are already open at Harley-Davidson dealerships.
