I understand they have a 500 in the works too. I think someone at HD realized they are losing market share among the youth segment, as their current offerings are expensive save the Sportster, and that one has had its desirability tarnished by their existing ownership and dealer network as a "girl bike."
The Streets should give them a way to appeal to the younger riders, and it gives them a platform without too much sentimental build-up or "heritage" that they can testbed new tech on. As these new riders age they can phase in such tech in their higher line-up without owner backlash too. Just my opinion, of course. I don't work for HD.
