How about Rs 4 lakh off a Harley? That’s exactly what Harley-Davidson has done with the Street Bob and the Super Glide Custom. These two models are now priced at Rs 9.95 lakh and Rs 11.5 lakh respectively, around Rs 4 lakh less than before.

H-D has achieved this by bringing in these bikes as completely knocked down (CKD) kits, as opposed to the completely built-up (CBU) units that they used to be.

To be assembled at the American company’s facility in Bawal, Haryana, from kits supplied from the USA, these two motorcycles are also an indication of H-D’s increasing focus on India as an assembling, and perhaps manufacturing, hub in the future.
