Hoping to draw even larger groups of riders into the
Harley-Davidson fold, the Motor Company continued to explore the options
offered by smaller, more nimble machines. The SS-250 was a larger version of
the earlier SS-175 and was meant for use on the street. For those wanting
on-and off-road capabilities, the SX-250 was at their avail. The two-stroke
motor displaced 250 cc, and rowed through a five-speed gearbox for maximum
flexibility and eager response. Not a huge hit in its first year, the SS-250
still filled the needs of many riders.
