Milwaukee-Eight 107 is WEAK - Underpowered Engine NOBODY Wants (Harley's Mistake)

Описание: Milwaukee-Eight 107 is WEAK - Underpowered Engine NOBODY Wants (Harley's Mistake)

The Harley-Davidson Milwaukee-Eight 107 produces only 77 horsepower at the rear wheel—barely enough to move 850-900 lb touring bikes. We expose why this underpowered base engine is Harley's biggest mistake and why thousands of owners regret not buying the 114.

What This Video Covers:

Real dyno numbers: 107 vs 114 vs Twin Cam 103 performance comparison

Why 77 hp can't handle loaded touring bikes (passenger + luggage = disaster)

0-60 and passing acceleration tests: dangerously slow with a passenger

The $3,000-4,000 upgrade trap: Stage 1 & 2 mods that should've been stock

Power-to-weight ratio: worse than a 1990s minivan (15.6 lbs/hp)

Why the 107 exists: Harley's cynical product segmentation strategy exposed

Resale value crash: 107 bikes lose $4,000-5,000 more than 114 models

Owner satisfaction data: why 107 riders regret their purchase

Performance Reality:
Solo riding: barely adequate
With passenger + gear: struggles on hills, can't pass safely, dangerous merging
Competitors destroy it: Indian PowerPlus 108, Yamaha Star Venture, Honda Gold Wing all make 95-120+ hp

The Financial Trap:
Buy 107 to save $3,500 → Immediately need $2,000+ in Stage 1 mods → Still weaker than stock 114 → Lose $5,000 more at resale = You actually LOSE money buying the "cheap" 107

Perfect for anyone shopping for a Harley touring bike (Street Glide, Road Glide, Road King, Electra Glide), current 107 owners wondering why their bike feels weak, or riders comparing Harley to Indian/Yamaha/Honda touring bikes.

Learn why Harley dealers immediately try to upsell you from the 107, why mechanics and experienced riders avoid it, and why the used market proves nobody wants this underpowered engine.
