Harley-Davidson India has confirmed that the new Sportster S will arrive in our market in December this year. The Indian arm of the American two-wheeler maker will launch this motorcycle in our market during the India Bike Week that is scheduled to take place on 4-5 December, 2021. The company has already commenced the pre-bookings for this upcoming motorcycle.
The Sportster S features an oblong-shaped headlamp, a compact front fender, an 11.8-litre fuel tank, tall-set exhausts, and a rider-only saddle. It is listed in three colours on the company’s India website – Vivid Black, Midnight Crimson, and Stone Washed White Pearl.
The motorcycle is already available in several international markets. The Sportster S uses the company’s new 1,250cc, liquid-cooled, 60-degree, V-twin engine that also powers the Pan America 1250 adventure motorcycle. Linked to a six-speed gearbox, the motor produces 119.3bhp of power and 127.4Nm of peak torque.
The electronic rider aids on the Sportster S include five riding modes (three preset and two customisable), cornering ABS, and lean-sensitive traction control. The feature list comprises Bluetooth-enabled instrument cluster and full-LED lighting.
