I always wondered why hd didn't offer a street model of the xr750?? the xr's were hot, mucho muscle rides. they had wide rear tires before they were kool. Like that's what makes a bike neat. Seriously, Why didn't they build on that idea? When I rode my sporty I used to imagine what a xr would be like. For sure would give competition to the rice burners.
