Harley-Davidson® of Washington, DC - Why Fort Washington, MD Riders Are Talking About the Milwaukee-Eight® 117 Custom Powertrain on the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Breakout®

There is something addictive about torque you can call up instantly, and that is what the Milwaukee-Eight® 117 Cu stom Powertrain delivers on the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Breakout®. The first roll-on from a stop is forceful and clean. The second reminds you that this engine is tuned for real-world riding, not just spec sheets. Paired with a new touring intake and a Two-Into-Two Exhaust, it breathes freely and responds with a deep, unmistakable note that turns the road ahead into an open invitation.

What makes this powertrain special is not only output, but the way it translates to confidence on daily routes and weekend runs. Throttle response is precise, so low-speed maneuvers feel composed. At speed, there is effortless passing power in reserve, so you ride relaxed instead of wringing it out. The 240mm rear tire helps convert that torque into forward motion, and refined chassis geometry keeps everything tracking true. It is classic Harley-Davidson® character sharpened by modern engineering.
