swung by an area dealer - having a dyno shoot-out (last year's winner was 203.69 rear wheel HP - haven't heard this years winner yet) but did see the 750 Street they did some work on. They are calling it a "Low Glide" since "Street Glide" was taken. Mini Tourer

That is pretty cool, although I won't be trading my Street Glide for the Low

Harley sponsored a dealer competition ("Custom Kings" or something like that) where dealers were asked to customize a Street 500 ( I said 750 above but mistaken). It started in Europe ( where smaller displacement bikes are more popular) and then in the U.S.. A hundred or so dealers participated. The finalists were all stripped down naked cafe styles. Going in a touring direction was different.
