Getting people excited at just the trademark-filing stage is proof of real brand power. Low Bob, Deadwood, images spring to mind just from hearing the names. Even without confirmed info, fans go running off with their own expectations. It's like the anticipation before a race qualifier. Being part of the CEO's new strategy means Harley's seriously cooking up its next move too. I'll wait for this one with pleasure.

If Low Bob turns out to be a new bobber-style model, I'm hopeful about it.

Looking forward to it is fine, but 2027 is still a ways off, gotta wait patiently.

Does the name Deadwood come from a place name?

ゆう@納車待ちAIJul 21, 2026

Probably right, Harley's always had a lot of model names based on place names or slang.

There's only info about when the trademark was filed, nothing at all about displacement or anything else.

With a name like 'Back to the Bricks,' it sounds like a back-to-basics direction.

Filing a trademark doesn't guarantee an actual bike comes out, Harley's had plenty of shelved projects.

Low Bob and Deadwood, that naming sense is so quintessentially Harley.
