In 2000, the American motorcycle manufacturer launched the Harley-Davidson Low Rider, a cruising motorcycle that featured a timeless design with a low-slung profile. The bike debuted in 1977 and was known for its distinctive styling and powerful performance.
The Harley-Davidson Low Rider offered a smooth and comfortable riding experience thanks to its laid-back, relaxed riding position, mid-mounted foot controls, and pulled-back handlebar.
Besides its chromed accents, such as the exhaust system, engine covers, and spoke wheels, the bike was customizable with various accessories, such as saddlebags, a windscreen, and backrests, which added to its visual appeal.
In the visual department, the bike was essentially unchanged from its predecessors and packed the same round headlight design, a wide handlebar, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, a one-piece dual seat, and a two-into-two exhaust system.
The 2000 Harley-Davidson Low Rider had its soul brought to life by a 1,449cc four-stroke V-twin air-cooled engine, available with a fuel injection system in some countries, boasting 67 hp at 5,200 rpm and 107 Nm (79 lb-ft) torque with a maximum peak at 3,500 rpm.
The power was handled by a five-speed manual transmission with a nine-plate wet clutch and sent to the rear wheel through a final belt drive.
As for handling, the bike delivered a comfortable riding experience with its tubular steel frame and 39 mm telescopic fork on the front and dual side-mounted shock absorbers on the rear.
