Harley-Davidson Street Makes a Comeback in India

Harley-Davidson Street 750 and Street Rod are back in action, registering 58 units and 14 units respectively in March 2019. The popular middleweight products were in news from the last few months regarding the zero unit sales number and now, the comeback claims that the braking issue faced by both the bikes has been resolved. The brand was facing difficulty in solving the problem and decided to halt production for the time that went into finding a solution. The number of units will rise with time as those looking for premium cruisers have no other option than buying the Street 750 for INR 5.33 lakh and the Street Rod for INR 6.53 lakh. The prices mentioned here are ex-showroom India.

Last year, the sales number for March 2018 was highly satisfying for the brand. Street 750 got 155 units during the 31-day period while Street Rod was good for 134 units. Apart from the 650cc Royal Enfield Twins, Harley-Davidson Street is the highest selling motorcycle series with a twin-cylinder engine, leaving just Kawasaki Ninja 300 on the rival list in terms of sales. Other 2-cylinder products that fall within the segment are four motorcycles from Benelli and one from Yamaha. The high number for Harley-Davidson shows that Indian buyers are still more interested in cruisers once the INR 5 lakh mark is crossed.
