Harley-Davidson Roadster Variants and Price List

The Harley-Davidson Roadster was offered in India in a single variant - the Standard XL1200CX - at a last recorded ex-showroom price of Rs. 11,08,945 in Delhi. Harley kept the lineup simple: one specification, one price, and three colour choices.

The on-road price varied by city, primarily due to differing state road tax rates. In Delhi, the on-road price came to approximately Rs. 12.51 Lakh. Mumbai buyers paid around Rs. 13.42 Lakh on-road, while Bangalore was the most expensive at approximately Rs. 13.92 Lakh - a gap driven by Karnataka's higher motor vehicle tax on premium motorcycles.

For buyers today, the Roadster is a used-market proposition. The Rs. 7-9 Lakh range represents the realistic asking price for well-maintained examples with reasonable kilometres, though exceptionally low-mileage examples with full service history can command closer to Rs. 10 Lakh. When evaluating a used Roadster, prioritise the service history at an authorised Harley-Davidson service centre over price alone - post-discontinuation, the availability of Sportster-specific parts means any deferred maintenance will be expensive to catch up on.

Key negotiation points on used examples: check the clutch plates (they wear relatively quickly under city use), inspect the rear shocks for seeping oil, and verify that the ABS modulator is functioning correctly. A pre-purchase inspection at a Harley-Davidson service centre is worth the cost.

Harley discontinued the Roadster in April 2020 as part of their Rewire strategy that eliminated the Indian-market Sportster lineup. There is no new-bike option. If you want a new Harley closer to the Roadster's spirit, the Sportster S at Rs. 15.49 Lakh is the natural upgrade - it is a fundamentally different, more modern motorcycle with a liquid-cooled Revolution Max engine, but it carries the same performance-oriented Sportster DNA that made the Roadster special.

Frequently Asked Questions

QHow many variants did the Harley-Davidson Roadster come in?
The Roadster was offered in a single variant in India - the Standard XL1200CX - at Rs. 11,08,945 (ex-showroom Delhi). There were no trim levels or optional packages; all bikes came fully equipped with USD forks, twin-disc ABS, and the same 1202cc Evolution V-twin.
QWhat is the best value used Harley-Davidson Roadster to buy in India?
The best-value Roadsters are 2018-2019 examples in the Rs. 7.5-9 Lakh range. These balance recency (more recently serviced components) with an affordable enough price to offset higher ongoing servicing costs. Avoid 2016 examples unless the service history is spotless - older Sportster components can be expensive to restore.
QWhy was the Harley-Davidson Roadster discontinued in India?
Harley-Davidson discontinued the entire air-cooled Sportster range in India in April 2020 as part of the global Rewire strategy under CEO Jochen Zeitz. The strategy eliminated mid-range models globally to focus on higher-margin motorcycles. The Roadster, Iron 883, 1200 Custom, and Forty-Eight were all removed simultaneously.
QWhat do used Harley-Davidson Roadsters sell for in India in 2026?
Used Roadster prices in 2026: 2016-2017 models in average condition sell for Rs. 5.5-7.5 Lakh; 2018-2019 well-maintained examples command Rs. 7-9 Lakh; and low-mileage 2019-2020 examples with full service history reach Rs. 8.5-10.5 Lakh. Always budget Rs. 25,000-40,000 for a post-purchase service.
