The​se​ prices are applicable for the 2017 models only and are valid till the stock lasts. The company had introduced its new 2018 model range globally a few days back. The slash in prices of the two Harley Davidson bikes in India is an indication that the ​manufacturer is making way for the 2018 ​family.

For this reason, it is offering lucrative discounts so that no older stock is available on the arrival of newcomers. The upcoming 2018 Harley-Davidson range will offer eight models in the Softail range. The company has also introduced the fresh models of its high capacity cruisers like the Sportster and the top-of-the-line CVO Limited.

The V-Rod was particularly known for its styling and was indeed a unique Harley for a number of reasons. The stand out features of the Harley-Davidson V-Rod include an underseat fuel tank, a hydroformed tubular frame and an airbox that mimics the conventional fuel tank at the front.
