The Street 750 looks a little less-intimidating than other Harley with a leaner, muscular design and a neat teardrop shaped tank. But it still has a strong presence on the road. The circular headlight comes with a bikini faring and lends the bike some Harley character. The instrument cluster looks simple in the center with the speedometer and the quality of the switches aren't exactly Harley standard - which was disappointing. The position of the rear view mirrors is a bit of a bother as you have to struggle to get the full image of the rear when riding.
The seat is well-padded and comfortable but gets a little narrow as its flows towards the rear. The rear of the bike looks good with its LED tail light and mini bullet indicators.The Street 750 has a wheelbase of 1534 mm which allows you get the typical Harley cruiser-feel while riding. There are loads of Street 750 accessories that Harley is providing to customhouse your motorcycle and pump up it's appeal.
Having ride it over 300 kilometers in half a day both on the highway and through wild Delhi city traffic, we can confidently say the Street 750 is a motorcycle that rides very much like a Harley Davidson, although the feel could have been a bit better.
But the bike really took us by surprise with its fantastic engine performance and easy yet solid handling. Unlike most Harley which rarely get out of the garage on weekdays, we do expect the Street 750 to be on the road all though the week both in the city and on the open road. Bookings for the bike have been strong so far and Harley says the Haryana plant where the Street 750 will be produced is ready to deal with the positive demand without keeping too much of a waiting period.
