Harley-Davidson Streetfighter 975 Prototype

Expanding on Harley's line of middleweight models is the first Harley-Davidson streetfighter motorcycle that is planned for 2020. Unapologetic modern style with enough performance and agility to carve through city streets.

The water-cooled V-twin engine has a capacity of 975cc and features a 60-degree V configuration with large cylinder heads that hide a pair of double overhead camshafts.

Prototype has 17-inch spoke alloy wheels, with a front tyre of 20/70-17 and 80/55-17 at the rear. 

Keeping performance in check are a pair of cross-drilled discs up front with a radial-mounted Monoblock callipers from Brembo. The rear on the other hand is managed by a Harley-Davidson branded opposed-piston caliper and single cross-drilled rotor.

Here is part of a press release on their future plans from Harley-Davidson:

It’s a fast-changing world with new consumer demands. Alongside our existing loyal riders, we will lead the next revolution of two-wheeled freedom to inspire future riders who have yet to even think about the thrill of riding.

NEW PRODUCTS
We are planning our most comprehensive line-up of motorcycles. Highlights include:

Extending the company’s leadership in heavyweight motorcycles by continuing to develop improved, more technologically-advanced Touring and Cruiser motorcycles that will keep existing Harley-Davidson riders engaged and riding longer.

Introducing a new modular 500cc to 1250cc middleweight platform of motorcycles that spans three distinct product spaces and four displacements, starting with the company’s first Adventure Touring motorcycle, the Harley-Davidson™ Pan America™ 1250, a 1250cc Custom model and a 975cc Streetfighter model, all of which are planned to launch beginning in 2020. Additional models to broaden coverage in these product spaces will follow through 2022.

Developing a more accessible, small-displacement (250cc to 500cc) motorcycle for Asia emerging markets through a planned strategic alliance with a manufacturer in Asia.  This new product and broader distribution is intended to fuel Harley-Davidson’s customer access and growth in India, one of the largest, fastest growing markets in the world, and other Asia markets.

Leading the electric motorcycle market by launching Harley-Davidson’s first electric motorcycle, LiveWire™, in 2019 — the first in a broad, no-clutch “twist and go” portfolio of electric two-wheelers designed to establish the company as the leader in the electrification of the sport. LiveWire will be followed by additional models through 2022 to broaden the portfolio with lighter, smaller and even more accessible product options to inspire new riders with new ways to ride.
