Harley-Davidson Sportster S Summary

Price: Harley-Davidson Sportster S price for its variant - Sportster S Standard starts at Rs. 16,48,938. The mentioned Sportster S price is the average ex-showroom.

Harley-Davidson Sportster S is a cruiser bike available in only 1 variant and 4 colours. The Harley-Davidson Sportster S is powered by 1252cc BS6 engine which develops a power of 120.69 bhp and a torque of 125 Nm. With both front and rear disc brakes, Harley-Davidson Sportster S comes up with anti-locking braking system. This Sportster S bike weighs 228 kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 11.8 liters.

The Harley-Davidson Sportster S sports the same brawny styling as before. It features a distinctive design that comprises a single-pod headlight, a compact fuel tank, a single-pod instrument cluster, a flat handlebar, a rider-only saddle, a twin-pod exhaust, and fat-profile tyres. The minimal body panels ensure that the Revolution Max 1250T engine is fully visible. This 1,252cc, V-twin, liquid-cooled engine is tuned to deliver a maximum output of 120.6bhp at 7,500rpm and a peak torque of 125Nm at 6,000rpm.

Now, the motorcycle is offered in a single variant and four colours – Vivid Black, White Sand Pearl, Grey Haze, and Bright Billiard Blue. The comprehensive feature list of the 2023 Sportster S comprises full-LED lighting, a Bluetooth-enabled colour TFT display that works with a dedicated smartphone application, a USB charger, and a plethora of rider aids. These include ABS with a cornering function, lean-sensitive traction control system, cornering drag-torque slip control system, and wheel lift mitigation function. Meanwhile, the Bluetooth module brings access to phone calls, music, and navigation.

As for hardware, the suspension tasks on the motorcycle are handled by 43mm upside-down front forks and a rear monoshock. The front forks and rear monoshock are adjustable for compression, rebound, and preload. The braking tasks are handled by a single disc with a four-piston calliper at the front and a single rotor with a single-piston calliper at the back.

Harley-Davidson Sportster S Review

  • Good Things

    • New engine offers lots of torque
    • Loaded with electronics
    • Gets Bluetooth and navigations
  • Could be Better

    • Available only as a single-seater
    • Limited sales, service reach
    • Expensive to maintain

BikeWale's Take

The Sportster S is Harley-Davidson’s latest addition in India line-up. It offers a sporty riding position and with its fat tyres and side mounted exhaust, the bike looks extremely good on the road. It also gets lots of modern electronics. But the motorcycle is expensive to maintain and the brand also lacks the sales and service reach.

      It good bike for a solo rider

      27 weeks ago


      Kartik Garg

      Riding the Harley Davidson Sportster S is an exhilarating experience that blends raw power with timeless style. From the moment you swing a leg over the saddle, you're greeted by the iconic rumble of its V-twin engine, a symphony that resonates through your bones as you twist the throttle. The Sportster S isn't just a motorcycle; it's a statement of freedom and individuality.
      The first thing you notice is the bike's commanding presence. Its muscular stance and aggressive lines command attention wherever you ride. The deep, throaty growl of the Revolution Max 1250T engine adds to its allure, promising a thrilling ride with every twist of the throttle. With 121 horsepower on tap, the Sportster S delivers effortless acceleration that pins you to the seat, pushing you back with a surge of adrenaline.
      As you navigate twisty backroads or carve through city streets, the Sportster S handles with precision and grace. The chassis feels planted and responsive, effortlessly leaning into corners while maintaining stability at higher speeds. The suspension soaks up bumps and imperfections, offering a comfortable ride without compromising on performance.
      The ergonomic design ensures that every control is within easy reach, from the responsive brakes to the intuitive touchscreen display that provides essential ride information at a glance. The seating position strikes a balance between comfort and control, allowing you to conquer long stretches of highway or navigate through dense urban traffic with equal confidence.
      But it's not just about the performance; the Sportster S is a masterpiece of design. Every curve and contour is meticulously crafted, showcasing Harley Davidson's commitment to quality and craftsmanship. The attention to detail is evident in every chrome accent and brushed metal surface, creating a bike that's as much a work of art as it is a mode of transportation.
      Riding the Harley Davidson Sportster S isn't just a ride; it's an experience that ignites your senses and stirs your soul. It's a celebration of freedom, individuality, and the thrill of the open road.

      A power full beast in road right now

      48 weeks ago


      Sagar Juyal

      The best bike I have seen on the road. I liked this bike as soon as I saw it for the first time. I like its sound and its power the best. If you can take a bike then according to the rate I have taken the best bike or I have been on such a long trip that I have not paid any attention to the fuel tank or should I say that I have a bike.
