Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() I have raised the query in my earlier thread. I was just checking price comparison of india vs usa harley prices and found a good difference on fatboy model whereas price of other models remained almost same. Last edited by ruchirtnt : 2nd January 2017 at 13:48. |

Why I suggest it is because the company has a few pieces lying with it and they're giving some very good discounts coupled with accessories and gear deals. Try it out. You can squeeze a huge amount since it'll be end of financial year pretty soon. | |

I would save the 90k and take the older model, assuming you are planning to keep the bike for a while. Spend the 90k on accessories (on the bike or for gear) to make your ride better. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but AFAIK there is no difference in the 2016 and 2017 models except the paint job. | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() While I was comparing the old with the new lineup, there is a reduction of 20 mm in seat height-unladen and engine torque reduction by 7 nm. United dealer also told me that there is a change in Hydraulic brake wires but there is no such information on the website plus there is a new olive gold color in the 2017 lineup.

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() The ex showroom price of Harley in Delhi is less as compared to other states because of additional taxes and moreover there are chances that i may get a 2016 model as well. Can we buy a bike and get RTO done in another state and second is it wise to go with 2016 model since the price difference is of 90k |

Yes, you can buy a bike from Delhi and get it registered in another state. They'll give delivery with a temporary registration Happens regularly given they don't have a dealership in each state yet | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() I have taken a comparison of both 2017 and 2016 lineup Fat boy and found that there is not much of a change except a new Olive Gold color. I am getting a black Fat boy of 2016 model at 1lac lesser price. Any opinion on Olive Gold color as it looks good in street bob. |

| ![]() The black looks great if you take the time to keep it clean and maintain it's shine, if not it begins to look bad very fast. Personally I'm not a fan of the olive gold color but it does look pretty good on the Fatboy especially if you buy hard case saddle bags in the same color. |
