Harley-Davidson has officially revealed its upcoming motorcycle, the Harley-Davidson X440 in India. This is the first motorcycle to be launched under the newly formed partnership between Hero Motocorp and Harley-Davidson.
Earlier, Hero Motocorp also shared images of this motorcycle. Looking at the images of the Harley-Davidson X440, the motorcycle looks very premium and it is likely to be positioned above the Honda CB350 range of motorcycles.
Speaking of about looks, the upcoming Harley-Davidson X440 motorcycle looks quite butch with its muscular fuel tank, and sleek-looking rear section. Additionally, round elements such as headlights, turn indicators, and instrument cluster lend the motorcycle a retro-ish vibe.
These images also reveal that the upcoming Harley-Davidson X440 motorcycle will come with features such as USD forks at the front, twin gas-charged shock absorbers at the rear, LED headlights with LED DRL, circular TFT instrument cluster, front and rear disc brakes, flat handlebars and more.
That being said, the riding position on the upcoming Harley-Davidson X440 motorcycle looks neutral and the motorcycle uses 18-inch wheels at the front and 17-inch wheels at the rear. This means the motorcycle will be very comfortable during both city rides and occasional weekend trips.
Coming to the powertrain, the Harley-Davidson X440 motorcycle will sport a 440cc, single-cylinder, oil-cooled engine. We expect this powertrain to produce heaps of torque and decent power figures as well. Additionally, we expect to see a 6-speed transmission as well.
Since India is a very price-sensitive market, we expect Harley-Davidson to price the X440 quite aggressively at somewhere around Rs 2.75 lakh mark. This is quite possible as the entire manufacturing of this motorcycle is taken care of by Hero Motocorp.
Additionally, we expect the upcoming Harley-Davidson X440 motorcycle to come with features such as Bluetooth connectivity, multiple ride modes, telemetry data, and a dedicated app to justify its premium positioning.
Thoughts About The Upcoming Harley-Davidson X440 Motorcycle
We expect the upcoming made-in-India Harley-Davidson X440 motorcycle to be priced at a premium compared to the Honda CB350RS and Royal Enfield Classic 350 at around Rs 2.75 lakh mark. We also expect the bike maker to launch the motorcycle ahead of the upcoming festive season.
