The 1,750 cc v-twin is blacked out, with chrome accents, and dual shotgun exhausts. It’s a single-seat Bobber-styled motorcycle, with steel spoked rims with a 19-inch front and 16-inch rear combination, and a single seat with an exposed rear fender.
The high ‘ape-hanger’ type handlebar is complemented by a single round headlight, which is an LED unit. The H-D Softail Standard is only offered in black and tips the scales with a 291 kg dry weight. At the front is the teardrop-shaped 13.2-liter fuel tank, which reveals the frame and big Milwaukee-Eight engine.
The suspension is handled by Harley-Davidson’s dual bending valve cartridge-type front fork, covered with clear-coated fork sliders, and at the rear is a mono-shock. Priced at $ 13,500 the Harley-Davidson Softail Standard will offer an entry-level machine and a perfect platform for customizing the bike further according to individual tastes and choices. Harley-Davidson also offers four dedicated accessory packages for those looking to customize the bike with genuine accessory packages right at the showroom.
As of now, we’re not sure if the new Softail Standard will be offered on sale in India. But it could very well be introduced, as a new 2020 model in the coming months.
