Harley-Davidson Street 750 News in India

The defining news story for the Harley-Davidson Street 750 in India came in September 2020 when Harley-Davidson announced its exit from the Indian market, shutting down its manufacturing plant in Bawal, Haryana - the facility where every Street 750 sold in India (and several global markets) had been assembled. The closure ended production of both the Street 750 and the Street Rod, terminating what had been the brand's most ambitious push into the volume motorcycle segment.

Before the exit, the Street 750 had already made history: in August 2019 it became India's first BS6-compliant motorcycle on sale - ahead of all domestic manufacturers - when Harley updated the Revolution X engine to meet the stricter emission norms ahead of the April 2020 BS6 deadline.

The brake recall saga was the biggest negative news cycle for the Street 750 during its production life. Harley-Davidson issued a global recall affecting the Street 500, Street 750, and Street Rod for a brake master cylinder issue. In India, over 43,000 bikes manufactured between 2015 and 2018 were covered. The recall involved inspection and potential replacement of the front brake master cylinder assembly to address brake fade under sustained use - an issue that Team-BHP owner forums documented extensively. Harley-Davidson service centres carried out the recall rectification free of charge, but not all bikes in the secondary market can be confirmed as recall-completed.

Following the exit, Harley-Davidson entered a licensing and distribution partnership with Hero MotoCorp. Under this arrangement, Hero manages the sales and service network for Harley-Davidson motorcycles remaining in India - relevant for Street 750 owners who now rely on this network for authorised servicing and parts. The partnership has maintained critical parts supply but with reduced network depth compared to the pre-exit era.

Official Updates (5)

  • Harley-Davidson and Hero MotoCorp opened two new full-line dealerships in Kochi (Kerala) and Bengaluru (Karnataka) on March 6, 2026, bringing the brand's total authorised service network in India to 22 locations - relevant for Street 750 owners seeking authorised servicing.

  • Harley-Davidson India officially discontinued the Street 750 in September 2020 following the closure of its Bawal, Haryana manufacturing plant; the last ex-showroom price was Rs 4,69,000 for the BS6 Standard variant and the bike is no longer available new at any authorised dealership.

  • Harley-Davidson launched the limited Street 750 10th Anniversary Edition in India at Rs 5,47,100 ex-showroom, restricted to 300 units, with special anniversary badging and exclusive colour options - the final new variant of the Street 750 sold in India.

  • Harley-Davidson launched the BS6-compliant Street 750 in India in August 2019 at Rs 4,69,000 ex-showroom, making it India's first BS6 motorcycle to go on sale - ahead of all domestic manufacturers and ahead of the April 2020 BS6 deadline.

  • Harley-Davidson issued a global recall covering the Street 750, Street 500, and Street Rod for a front brake master cylinder defect affecting over 43,908 bikes manufactured between May 2015 and December 2018; authorised dealerships carried out the rectification free of charge.

For Street 750 owners in 2026, the Hero MotoCorp-managed Harley-Davidson dealerships in major cities are the primary authorised service route. In cities without a dedicated HD dealership, the independent Harley mechanic community - well-established in Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, and Hyderabad - is a reliable alternative for routine servicing. Always verify brake recall completion status when purchasing a used Street 750; this is non-negotiable. Hero's parts network generally maintains supply for wear items (oil filters, brake pads, belts) but niche components like starter motor assemblies or fuel injector components may require advance ordering with 2-4 week lead times.

Frequently Asked Questions

QWhy was the Harley-Davidson Street 750 discontinued in India?▾
Harley-Davidson discontinued the Street 750 in India in September 2020 as part of a strategic global restructuring that included exiting the Indian direct-sales market entirely. The closure of the Bawal, Haryana manufacturing plant - Harley's first outside the USA - was driven by poor sales volumes relative to operating costs, increasing competition from domestic rivals like Royal Enfield, and a broader brand pivot away from entry-level volume motorcycles.
QWas the Harley-Davidson Street 750 recalled in India?▾
Yes - Harley-Davidson issued a global recall covering the Street 750 (along with the Street 500 and Street Rod) for a brake master cylinder defect. In India, over 43,000 bikes manufactured between 2015 and 2018 were affected. Authorised dealerships carried out the rectification free of charge. Buyers of used Street 750s should verify that the recall work has been completed before purchase.
QWho services the Harley-Davidson Street 750 in India now?▾
Following Harley-Davidson's partnership with Hero MotoCorp, authorised servicing is available through Hero-managed Harley-Davidson dealerships in major Indian cities. For cities without an HD dealership, the well-established independent Harley mechanic community in tier-1 cities is a practical alternative for routine maintenance. Genuine parts are available through the Hero-Harley parts network.
QIs there any successor to the Harley-Davidson Street 750 in India?▾
There is no direct successor to the Street 750 in the Indian market as of 2026. The Street 750 was positioned as an entry-level Harley-Davidson at Rs 4,69,000 - a segment Harley has not re-entered in India. The Harley-Davidson X440 (developed in partnership with Hero MotoCorp) targets a similar price bracket and is the closest spiritual successor, though it is a very different motorcycle in character and design.
