modern package compared to its larger displacement siblings like the Street 500 and Street 750. RECOMMENDED STORIES HARLEY-DAVIDSON X440: FEATURES Harley-Davidson India has already shared

images of the X440, revealing its retro-inspired design cues. The bike features a round headlamp, a single-pod instrument cluster, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, round indicators, and a

side-slung exhaust, all reminiscent of the brand’s classic motorcycles. However, the X440 also incorporates modern elements such as machined alloy wheels, an LCD panel for the console, and

LED lighting, giving it a contemporary appeal. HARLEY-DAVIDSON X440: ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS Powering the Harley-Davidson X440 is a newly-developed 440 cc single-cylinder, oil and air-cooled

engine. Although specific power figures have not been disclosed, it is expected to deliver approximately 30 bhp and 35 Nm of peak torque. With a larger displacement engine than the Royal

Enfield 350 cc range, the X440 is likely to offer superior performance. The motorcycle also boasts USD front forks, twin shocks at the rear, and disc brakes at both ends equipped with
