Harley Davidson unveiled Softail Breakout in India Bike Week

The Indian series of Harley Davidson gets a new bang during the Bike Week 2013.  Powered by a 1690cc engine which makes almost 130Nm of torque and  mated to a 6-speed Cruise Drive gearbox Softail Breakout has a price tag of around 18,000 INR. The term softail refers to motorcycles and bicycles that feature a rear suspension system with springs or shock absorbers to absorb bumps. On softail motorcycles, the shock absorbers or springs are often hidden underneath out of view to give the appearance of a hard-tail or rigid frame. In Harley-Davidson motorcycles, the softail frame is designed to look like the hardtail bikes of the past, while still offering the comfort of rear suspension. The shock absorbers are positioned along the axis of the motorcycle, tucked away under the transmission. There are several Harley-Davidson models with the Softail frame, including the Softail Standard, Custom, Springer Softail, Heritage Softail, Heritage Springer, Night Train, Deluxe, Deuce, Fat Boy, the Dark Custom Cross Bones, and the Dark Custom Blackline. These motorcycles have the same engine, transmission and frame with the exception of the Deuce, which has a 2 inches (51 mm) backbone stretch, but differ in the choice of fork, wheels and accessories.
