    The Harley-Davidson Streetfighter is a completely new motorcycle from the American bike maker and is also a far cry from the otherwise traditional cruiser styling that most of the brand's models have adopted.

    It is also interesting to note that Harley trademarked the name 'Bareknuckle' earlier this year, which could be used on the production-spec version of the Streetfighter. That said, it's still a hunch and could be reserved for a completely different motorcycle altogether.

    In addition, the Harley-Davidson Pan America is confirmed to arrive globally by 2020 and is part of the company's 'More Roads To Harley' growth campaign. The Pan America will be a Ducati Multistrada 1260 rival that has been described as a crossover between the Street Glide and the Africa Twin. A bold and completely new direction for the company, the Pan America will draw power from a 1250 cc V-Twin motor. There's no confirmation on the power output as yet.
