Harley-davidson Street 750 Review
"Decent city bike, but buy wisely and budget for upgrades."
Key Specs
Used Buyer Review
The Street 750 is Harley's attempt at an entry-level urban bike, and honestly? It's a mixed bag. The liquid-cooled Revolution X engine is torquey down low and genuinely fun in city traffic โ it pulls cleanly from 20mph and the riding position suits commuting well. For a new rider stepping into the bar-and-shield world without remortgaging, it made sense on paper. Used, you can find decent examples between $4,500-$6,500 depending on mileage and condition. Here's where I'll be straight with you though: quality control was inconsistent in early production years, and the front forks are notoriously underdamped โ expect them to dive hard under braking. Heat management is also a real issue; that engine cooks your right leg in slow traffic. Parts availability has improved, but dealer support varies wildly. Check service records obsessively, and avoid anything that's been dropped or sat unridden for extended periods. These bikes need regular use to stay happy.
