2015 Harley-Davidson Street 750: Finding The Balance Of Power
Harley-Davidson is known for its imposing cruisers and
touring motorcycles, but that doesn't mean the manufacturer can't
produce stellar smaller bikes. That is proved by the 2015
Harley-Davidson Street 750, part of an all-new model model line
that brings the traditional touring style to an urban setting.
Striking a perfect blend between urban street bikes and classic
cruisers, the 2015 Harley-Davidson Street 750 is a bike that can
satisfy a wide range of owners who want to look and feel good while
riding around town.
Engine
It
wouldn't be a classic Harley-Davidson without an excellent engine,
and the Street 750 certainly delivers on that front. The bike is
powered by a liquid-cooled Revolution X engine with a displacement
of 750 cc. Its simple, modern design aims to even out acceleration
and reduce weight. The motor works with a six-speed transmission
and 2-into-1 exhaust
system, both of which have been primed for efficiency.
Chassis And Frame
The
unique thing about the 2015 Harley-Davidson Street 750 is that,
although it is reminiscent of a traditional cruiser, it is built
with agility needed in a street bike. Even the tightest of urban
spaces can be easily maneuvered with this machine. This is further
helped by its smooth suspension, which has been tuned to provide
stability on even the roughest roads.
Still, it boasts the long, low frame that many Harley-Davidson
creations have become known for. The front and rear wheels measure
in at 17 inches and 15 inches, respectively, ensuring that the ride
stays low to the ground and stable as they go.
Extra Features
As
if all the technical aspects of this Harley-Davidson weren't
enough, the bike also comes with several other benefits. For one,
its appearance is sleek and aggressive. The all-black finish
extends to everything from the engine and handlebars to exhaust and
covers. To go along with that exterior, there is also a café-style
windscreen and a few custom details that continue to set it
apart. LED taillights and bullet signals will brighten up the dark
exterior after the sun sets, and the mid-mount controls can be
easily accessed at any time of day.
Balancing out power and agility is never easy, but Harley-Davidson
seems to have the mark with the Street 750. It was made with some
emerging motorcycle markets and new riders in mind, but it
certainly would be right at home in any locale or garage.
