Harley-Davidson has unveiled the 2022 iteration of the Low Rider S. Alongside this, the motorcycle maker has also revealed the all-new Low Rider ST. This is a new motorcycle in the portfolio that shares a lot with the Low Rider S. Starting off with the Low Rider S, which was also in the Harley-Davidson India portfolio, and for the 2022 update, there are only a few changes. The fuel tank mounted instrument cluster now misses out on a cleaner look. Other than this, there’s no other aesthetic update. Although, we do have an update in the mechanical department, the motorcycle now gets a Milwaukee 117 engine, replacing the previous 114 unit.
