                  It provide a very comfortable
                  Indian Springfield Dark Horse has low 650mm seat height but large footboards and mid-rise handlebars to provide a very comfortable ride, though its enormous size and heavy weight make it difficult to manage at low speed. There is no windshield on this bike and the pillion accommodations are really minimal, though some accessories are available to accommodate a passenger more comfortably.
