Features a larger Milwaukee-Eight 114 engine along with cosmetic and mechanical updates 

The Low Rider S is the third member from Harley-Davidson’s Softail family. Features a new front fascia and bronzed aluminium alloy wheels. It packs a 1,868cc V-twin that puts out 155Nm of torque. Gets tweaked underpinnings and revised ergonomics. 

A few weeks ago, Harley-Davidson revealed its BS6 lineup for India which included the Fat Boy, Low Rider, Forty-Eight and the Forty-Eight Special. The missing link though was the Low Rider S from Harley-Davidson’s Softail family. Well, it’s here now and it’s priced at Rs 14,69,000 (ex-showroom India) -- a premium of Rs 94,000 over the standard Low Rider. The new cruiser comes equipped with a larger engine, cosmetic updates, tweaked mechanicals and revised ergonomics.

For starters, the Low Rider S now draws power from a Milwaukee-Eight 114 engine, Harley Davidson’s largest engine for the Softail family. The 1868cc V-twin powerhouse belts out 155Nm, an increment of 10Nm over the 1745cc Milwaukee-Eight 107 engine seen on the Low Rider. 

Additional changes come in the form of mechanical updates such as a chunky USD fork like the one seen on the Fat Bob. It also gets a twin-disc setup at the front, which should improve braking performance significantly. 

Cosmetic changes include a new LED headlight and a round black bikini fairing along with bronzed aluminium alloy wheels. In fact, even the LED tail light has a light smoke finished cover.
