Harley-Davidson Street Rod makes slightly more torque than the Street 750 from the same 749 cc V-twin mill; India launch imminent

Harley-Davidson has launched the Street Rod 750 in India at a price of Rs. 5.86 lakh (ex-showroom, New Delhi). The Street Rod has all the ingredients to be a big seller as it is based on the Street 750 and comes a lakh more expensive than its sibling. Bookings have opened across all HD dealerships across India and the deliveries will commence from April 21.

The American high-end motorcycle manufacturer will be eyeing big sales from the Street Rod with its entry-level pricing and alluring exterior. It could repeat the success of the Street 750 in terms of volumes. Harley-Davidson claims the Street Rod is designed for urban landscape and has styling cues derived from the now defunct XR1200X.

There are several signature Harley-Davidson design elements to the Street Rod like the teardrop fuel tank than has a capacity of 13.1 litres, drag-style handlebars with bar-end mirrors alongside a new headlight and rear cowls. The split seat layout render a modern yet styling while the beefier exhaust system with wider outlets will make the Street Rod stand-apart in the crowd.

The motorcycle’s meaner look is emphasised further by the chrome accented cylinder fins while there is an addition of a high output air cleaner as well. It weighs five kilograms more than the Street 750. It uses the same engine from the Street 750 with slight modifications.
