Selected models of Harley-Davidson to go costlier by Rs 30,000

Harley-Davidson, the popular bike maker from America, has announced an increase in prices on some selected models that are sold in India. The models would now be priced higher by Rs 30,000, and this has been done to offset the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuation.

The models on which the price increase will be applicable are: Street 750, Sportster family and Softail range of bikes.

The price change will be effective from April 1 this year.

As of now, the Street 750 model price starts at Rs 4.52 lakh, with three models in the Sportster family, viz. Iron 883, 1200 Custom and Forty Eight being priced at Rs 7.37 lakh, Rs 8.9 lakh and Rs 9.12 lakh, respectively.

Talking of the Softail range, it also has three models in the line up. While the Fat Boy would have a price starting at Rs 15.15 lakh, Breakout starts at Rs 16.4 lakh and Heritage Softail Classic starts at Rs 16.6 lakh.

"The increase is due to the impact of the Rupee-Dollar exchange rate," said the company.
