The Harley-Davidson Company was founded in 1903 and had its headquarters in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States. Harley-Davidson was one of two major motorcycle manufacturers that survived the Great Depression, and the other was Indian Motorcycles.
In 1995, the American motorcycle manufacturer launched the Harley-Davidson Low Rider, a cruising motorcycle known for its classic American appearance and long-distance capabilities.
Its timeless design blended classic and modern elements with an extended, low-slung profile and a sleek and muscular appearance. Above the engine, the bike packed a teardrop-shaped fuel tank adorned with the Harley-Davidson badge and also featured a stepped seat with great comfortability.
Besides its classic teardrop-shaped fuel tank, the bike packed a wide handlebar, a round headlight, a two-into-two chromed exhaust system, and nine-spoke lightweight wheels that added to its classic American style.
The 1995 Harley-Davidson Low Rider took its muscles from a 1,337cc four-stroke V-twin air-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 58 hp with a peak force at 4,900 rpm and 86 Nm (64 lb-ft) torque at 2,400 rpm.
The engine power was handled by a five-speed manual transmission, which allowed effortless gear shifting and delivered the perfect balance between power and control on both city streets and the open highway.
The bike's handling was achieved by a telescopic fork on the front and dual side-mounted shock absorbers on the rear. As for the stopping power, the bike featured a triple-disc braking system with two discs on the front and one on the rear.
