“America’s Most Sensational Motorcycle!”と銘打ち、H-Dが1952年に市場に投下した新基軸──それは大洋を超え、北米大陸に続々と送り込まれる軽量コンパクトで機動力の高い欧州車勢を前に、「同じクラスのどのモーターサイクルより速く、見栄え良く、価値の高い新型車」という命題を掲げ、 真っ向から勝負を挑んだ意欲作だった。ミッドセンチュリーにおけるアメリカンスポーツの到達点。 Model Kの魅力を、ここに紐解いてみたい。
Released in 1952 and named “America’s Most Sensational Motorcycle,” it was H-D’s latest innovation—a bike that directly challenged the lightweight, compact, high-horsepower European motorcycles that had been crossing the Atlantic and entering the North American market one after another. An ambitious product based on the proposition of being “faster, better looking, and more valuable than any other bike in its class,” The Model K was the pinnacle of mid-20th-century sports bikes, and here, we unravel its charms.
