This bike is quiet good, like i have test driven every harley davidson bike and the sportster s is the one that impressed me the most, it sounds good, the engine is refined and smooth and has lots of features and offers good performance. If you have 12 to 13 lakhs budget this is the bike you need. Also this bike is a multi functional bike, you can take it off road and on road both.

    Although this bike claims to have a higher seat height than the fat bob, trust me, your feet are more accessible to the ground on this than the fat bob, owing to the sheer lack of width of the bike in comparison.
    Coming to the riding part, it's flawless and produces less sound in comparison with the fat bob or other traditional hds for that matter.
    The shopping experience is truly special and so is the service workshop tour (yet to get my bike serviced).
    Pros:
    1. Lightweight, lots of room for control at low speed.
    2. Smooth riding on highways and bump-free roads.
    3. Instrument cluster is highly informative, truly a value-for-money addition.
    4. Most importantly, looks are a head-turner. Name any sports bike you can think of, your speedster s would draw all attention to you irrespective of which sports bike moves along you.
    Cons:
    1. Extremely low ground clearance which makes it unsuitable for most Indian roads. Also, tyre pressure needs to be monitored at all times - any drop in pressure reduces ground clearance even further.
    2. Stiff rear suspension: gives you the jolt of your lifetime, especially if you're privileged to have some back injuries or backpains. But I was told the footpeg assembly can be mid-shifted for better comfort which I intend to do during my first service.
    Overall verdict:
    If you plan your trip well ahead and meticulously so that all potholes and bumps in your trip are accounted for, you can definitely go for one.
