It was in July 2018 that Harley-Davidson announced its 'More Roads To Harley-Davidson' program wherein it was revealed that Harley-Davidson will break mould and develop motorcycles beyond cruisers. Keeping this in mind, the company showcased the 'Pan-America 1250' and the 'Streetfighter'. The naked streetfighter in particular caught our attention, with the initial photographs showing a sharply designed prototype. And now, reports suggest that Harley-Davidson has filed a trademark for the name 'Bareknuckle' in USA. Although, the trademark is yet to be granted! Yes, these are early days but if one were to join the dots, a name like 'Bareknuckle' will be suited to a naked streetfighter.
