Harley-davidson Sportster S

The Harley-davidson Sportster S has a top speed of 210 km/h (estimated; Harley-Davidson does not publish an official figure), produces 121 hp and weighs 228 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.

할리데이비슨 스포츠터 S는 상징적인 스포츠스터 제품군을 완전히 재창조하여 공랭식 에볼루션 기반 모델을 완전히 현대적인 플랫폼으로 대체하여 2021년에 출시되었습니다.이 모델은 레볼루션 맥스 1250T 수랭식 V-트윈 엔진으로 구동되며, 이 엔진도 팬 아메리카 어드벤처 바이크의 뒷받침 역할을 하며, 네임플레이트의 기술적 도약을 의미하기도 합니다.이 모델은 Sportster를 완전히 조절 가능한 서스펜션과 주행 모드를 갖춘 보급형 크루저가 아닌 퍼포먼스 중심의 로드스터로 재배치한 것으로 유명합니다.

Revolutionary Revolution Max Engine

The Sportster S is powered by Harley's liquid-cooled Revolution Max 1250T engine — a major departure from air-cooled Sportster tradition. This modern engine runs cooler and cleaner, making it more reliable in stop-and-go traffic and hot climates.

⚠️

Watch for Software Glitches

Early model year (2021-2022) Sportster S bikes had reported ECU and ride-by-wire software issues causing rough idle or stalling. Always verify the bike has the latest dealer-installed firmware updates before purchasing.

💰

Strong Resale Value

As Harley's flagship modern sportbike, the Sportster S holds its value notably well compared to competitors, often retaining 75-85% of MSRP in the first two years. Its limited production numbers and strong demand help protect your investment.

Tech-curious riders wanting modern Harley credibility

"The most exciting Harley in decades, but buy one carefully."

$11,000-$14,500 used

The Sportster S is genuinely one of the more interesting things Harley has done in years. That Revolution Max 1250 engine is the real deal — 121 horsepower sounds like marketing fluff until you actually twist the throttle and feel it pull hard past 6,000rpm. It doesn't ride like any Harley you've touched before. Used examples are appearing around the $11-14k mark now, and honestly that's when it starts making sense financially. Here's the honest part though: check the suspension setup carefully on any used example. The ergonomics are notoriously aggressive for a Harley — forward pegs, low bars — and tall riders genuinely struggle on longer rides. Previous owners often fitted aftermarket seats or risers, which is actually a green flag on used bikes. Also confirm the electronics haven't been tampered with; the ride-by-wire and cornering ABS are genuinely useful here. Battery issues cropped up on early 2021-2022 bikes, so ask for service history and check for the software updates. It's a polarising machine but an exciting one.
