Harley Davidson bikes are the newest attraction to Indian bike enthusiasts and the line-up is too magnetizing. With bikes ranging from Rs.5 to Rs.35 Lakh the company has a number of bikes to offer to the Indian customers, priced in accordance with the budgets of different buyers.
The next happening thing for the buyers is the Harley Davidson FXS Blackline Softail which is the recent addition to the company’s line-up. The bike is very unusual in every sense with a number of unique things including an asymmetrical fuel tank design.
