Official New Harley Models 500 and 700 Thread

Due to the low weight and liquid cooled/4 valves per head engine, I bet the 750 Street will haul ***.
This would be a perfect bike for my wife to learn on...light & agile.
Now, for the next unveiling.....please release the new Road Glide with full water cooled engine.

I think these will be huge sellers. Urban riders, college students, women looking for their first bike. I know before I had my 883, then 1200, I wished Harley made a bike between a 500 and 750 - I would have bought it immediately. This is also perfect for young people without a lot of money and now can afford a cool looking Harley. I think these will be a hit.

I just looked on hd's site it says it will come with a 6 speed. I wonder what kind of gas mileage it will get. I know that will be a whole nother market of riders. I have a buddy that wants a bike strictly to save on gas but when at the dealer the mpg on an 883 was only around 50 mpg if I remember correctly

Im pretty sure they will make the ones sold in america in the US. I think this is a great move by the MoCo because being only 24 this will defintely appeal to the younger riders and the beginners. IF these bikes would have been around when i started riding a 4 years ago i definitely would have wanted one. Also thinking its a good first bike for my wife since she is only 5 foot. I also think that Revolution engine with a six speed in the 450lbs bike will be pretty spirited. I just think this is a good move for harley to get a foot hold in a new market.

Its the primary reason for the 500cc and that big honkin radiator will keep it cool on the 120 degree days on the riding range.
the 500cc buell has been used long enough for the Harley Davidson Training bike.
