Tony Halpin Finds the Darkly Stylish New Harley Davidson Street Rod Is Up for the Challenge Whether in Traffic or in the Hills on the Slick, Wet Streets of Singapore.
I might have been brought up bashing dirt bikes around the back country of northern NSW, but that didn’t stop my heart skipping a few beats when I was woken up by torrential rain ahead of a test ride of Harley-Davidson’s slick looking new Street Rod around the streets of Singapore.
The thought of handling a machine promising 18 percent more horsepower and eight percent more torque than the Street 750 on which it is based – in Singapore’s famous humidity and after a storm – made my palms sweatier than they already were.
Once I was on it, though, weaving through the heavy city traffic as we headed for the Old Upper Thompson Road – part of Singapore’s former Grand Prix Circuit – I realised there were few better places to showcase what this bike was designed to do.
