Harley Davidson Sportster has existed since 1957, that is, longer than, for example, some famous sports cars such as the 911 or Camaro.
This is not only a brand-new motorcycle, but it is also a completely new concept that throws everything that was previously, except for the name Sportster, into the trash.
It was first introduced back in 2018 when the company showed the Pan America tourist Enduro. Following this example, the Sportster S abandons air cooling and non-existent electronics in favor of modern tech.
The high-mounted exhaust pipes, and narrow single seat are inspired by the Harley-Davidson XR 750 flat tracker model.
The Sportster S also has a modern electronics package, there are three riding modes – road, sports, and rain, inclined ABS, plus tilt-sensitive and traction control, round 4-inch TFT display, fully LED lighting, and cruise control.
The Sportster S suspension consists of SHOWA components, it is a front fully adjustable 43 m inverted fork, and a fully adjustable mono shock absorber is also installed at the rear.
This version of Harley-Davidson’s latest liquid-cooled V twin engine is tuned to deliver huge torque at low revs, as the letter T in the engine name tells us.
