  • First Look: 2011 Harley-Davidson SuperLow

    Low-seat Harley to join 2011 company range

    \

    THIS IS THE 2011 Harley-Davidson SuperLow - a drop-seat version of the company's existing 883 Sportster, designed primarily for riders a little short in the leg.

    The new SuperLow combines revised front end geometry, new wheels and a reshaped seat that sits just 25.5 inches off the ground. Reshaped handlebars also help to achieve what H-D describe as 'well-balanced handling and comfort that will inspire confidence in new riders and exhilarate those with experience.'

    More motorcycles with a low seat is a great idea. After all, there's nothing more unnerving for a novice motorcyclist than not being able to get your feet on the floor, is there?

          Well, they could've worked on the engine to make it 6 speed with helical cut 5th gear like they have it in Dyna & Softail family; and the alloy also looks new compared to the traditional 13 spoke alloy wheel.

            Looks super cool.
            I may replace my gixxer with this.

            But there is just one thing I dont understand.
            Instead of making bikes with lower seats, why dont they offer a provision to lower the seats by a foot or so.
            I mean if I really like some other model and cant buy it because of its higher saddle, and dont like this one, then what?

              Expected Price.

              As per today's "the hindu" newspaper wheels section of Coimbatore Metro plus, the expected price of the Harley Superlow is 5,50,000/-. The price in USA is $8,000/-. Such a lower price is because the Superlow is being assembled in their Bawal plant in Haryana!!

                    Probably there're few other "affordables" in this country

                      By getting the forward control foot pegs, I think the riding position can be improved further to be like its bigger siblings.

                        is the last picture a scale model? looks a little 'off'.
                        The Indian biker has never been so spoiled for choice before. my cousin just told me that I have no idea how good i have i now. i told him he had the rd350 and he shut right up.

                            Yes...this does look small compared to other big siblings. But the riding position was quite comfortable.

                            How about a comparison between similarly priced Hyosung ST7 and HD superLow??

                              I too think this makes a good "first bike"
