Low-down power-cruiser

WEAK they aren't bad enough to be mean. Put some edge in your cruising attitude with the Mean Streak. A low-down, powerful street fighter that is part sports bike, part cruiser and all mean.

Part of this aggressive attitude comes from a fuel-injected, 1,470 cm, V-twin engine pumping out heaps of gusty torque. The rest comes from a rugged chassis with a muscular inverted fork, large-diameter duel disc brakes and a low riding position that looks and feels totally cool.

Sports bike chassis technology includes duel 320 mm semi-floating front disc brakes operated by 6-piston calipers, all nestled within a study 43 mm inverted forks.

Tuned for hard-hitting acceleration, the Mean Streak's liquid-cooled, 1,470 cm V-twin engine inhales through large-bore 40 mm throttle bodies for that instant response across the rev range.

Mean and clean the tank-mounted ignition switch features on-position key removal to prevent keys from marring the paint or lines of the sleek sculpted fuel tank.
