Our take on this /// Verdict

The Harley-Davidson Sportster S is a significant departure from the traditional Harley-Davidson cruisers, and it is a welcome change. With its liquid-cooled Revolution Max 1250T engine, this bike packs a punch, delivering 121 horsepower and 125 Nm of torque. The riding experience is enhanced by the three riding modes - Sport, Road, and Rain - along with two custom modes, which adjust settings like engine braking, ABS, and power delivery. The bikes handling is impressive, especially on smooth roads, but it can be quite stiff on Indian roads, which may be a drawback for some riders. The brakes are top-notch, with powerful twin-radial Brembo monoblock calipers. However, the fat front tyre can make quick direction changes a bit challenging. Overall, the Sportster S is a modern, high-tech cruiser that offers a unique blend of performance, style, and technology, making it a compelling choice for those looking for a powerful and stylish ride.

Price

In India, the Harley-Davidson Sportster S is priced around Rs 19 lakh on-road in Mumbai. This price reflects the bikes premium features, including its powerful engine, advanced electronics, and high-quality build. The ex-showroom price would be slightly lower, but the on-road price includes various costs such as registration, insurance, and other local taxes. Given its performance, styling, and brand reputation, the Sportster S is positioned as a luxury cruiser, and the price aligns with its premium positioning in the market. For those who value the Harley-Davidson brand and are looking for a high-performance cruiser, the price may be justified, but it certainly places the bike in a niche segment.

2024 Harley-Davidson Sportster S on road price is Rs 19 lakh in Delhi, Rs 19.65 lakh in Mumbai, Rs 19.23 lakh in Kolkata and Rs 19.48 lakh in Chennai. The prices mentioned here are approximate and we suggest you contact your nearest Harley-Davidson dealership to get the exact on-road price quote in your city.

Latest Updates

Tuesday, 12 November 2024 08:31 AM The 2024 Harley-Davidson Sportster S has been priced at $16,999, marking a slight increase from the 2023 model. This bike features the powerful Revolution Max 1250T engine, producing 121HP and 94 ft. lb. of torque. It also comes with advanced ride modes, ABS, and a 4-inch TFT display. I believe this bike is a great blend of classic Harley-Davidson style and modern technology.

Friday, 21 July 2023 02:25 PM Harley-Davidson has emphasized the Sportster Ss performance and handling, highlighting its liquid-cooled Revolution Max engine with double overhead camshafts and variable valve timing. The bike also features adjustable suspension and a range of rider safety enhancements, including traction control and cornering-enhanced ABS. I think the combination of power and safety features makes this bike appealing to both new and experienced riders.

Friday, 10 February 2023 09:19 AM The design of the Sportster S has drawn mixed reactions, with some praising its aggressive and modern look, while others feel it strays too far from the traditional Sportster heritage. The bikes styling is influenced by classic bobbers and flat-track racers, with a high-mount exhaust and wide-profile tires. I believe the unique design will attract a new generation of riders who are looking for something different.

Sunday, 01 January 2023 04:56 PM Harley-Davidson has positioned the Sportster S as a high-performance sport motorcycle, part of a new chapter in the Sportster saga that began in 1957. The bike is equipped with advanced features like ride modes, Bluetooth connectivity, and a comprehensive TFT display. I think this approach will help Harley-Davidson appeal to a broader range of riders who value both performance and technology.

Sunday, 01 January 2023 01:35 PM The Sportster S comes with a 6-speed transmission and a carbon fiber belt final drive, along with a multi-plate clutch. It also features a 2-year unlimited mileage warranty, which adds to its appeal for long-term riders. The bikes weight and lean angles are designed for nimble handling, making it suitable for both urban and scenic rides. I believe the warranty and robust build quality will give buyers added peace of mind.

Mileage

Monday, 18 November 2024 05:52 PM The mileage of the Harley-Davidson Sportster S in India is not exceptionally high, given its powerful engine and cruiser design. With a 1250cc engine producing 121 horsepower, the bike is more about performance than fuel efficiency. Real-world mileage can vary depending on riding conditions, but you can expect it to be around 15-20 kml in city riding and slightly better on the highway. The bikes weight and the wide tyres also contribute to its fuel consumption. While it may not be the most fuel-efficient option, the Sportster S is designed for those who prioritize power and style over mileage, making it a trade-off that many enthusiasts would be willing to accept.

It includes Ex-Showroom Price in your city + RTO Charges (Vehicle Registration) + One Time Road Tax + Insurance Charges + 1% TDS. The On-Road Price also includes some optional things like if you opt for Genuine Accessories and Extended Warranty while buying a vehicle. Please note that the On-Road Price varies a lot across different states in India due to different percentage for the State Registration Charges.
