- Sarge hits the road on the Harley-Davidson X440 in the wake of Triumph Speed 400's success to see how it stacks up and if it all it can gain any groud on its British rival especially with the bump in its price tag even before the delivery of the first motorcycle.

That’s a sound argument how Harley is targeting Tier 2 and below where it will be successful. It’s showing in the numbers. Around 25,000 bikes already booked. Thanks for the clarity.

I think x440 is an excellent bike that ONLY looks slightly bad when compared to Speed 400 which I think is once in a decade unicorn kind of bike.
Also, I am sure the current issues with bike of quality & deisgn will be fixed in its next version like Nightster 440 which will have more traditional Harley styling and better branding.
Hope they do a better job with the Nightster 440
@@SagarSheldekarOfficialis a nightster 440 coming ?
@@Ashes-9 is what I hear
Bro let's talk about present.. future everything will be fine tuned, even triump will be fine tuned for that matter.. is it a better buy now or speed 400 thts the question.. bcz Harley is little costlier and in terms of looks, finish and performance triump is better is what I feel as I test rode it.. but speed 400 feels a little smaller
@@Swap.Sanatani Yes. For Harley one should wait for its next version, for now Speed 400 is the better choice, I booked it on 5 July and expecting delivery later this month. I will have to travel 120km to showroom
Shooting location is awesome, clicked on the video as soon as possible, waiting for real on-road riding review,
Already booked it & waiting for Delivery.

Short, crisp and fantastic review Sarge! As for the X440, I feel Hero and Harley wanted to pack more features to outclass the segment and in that pursuit their quality took a back step. Not something that Triumph did with the Speed 400 (this is just my thoughts on the bikes)
Bang on. The Speed is the better bike of the two. The x440 was built for the masses
@@SagarSheldekarOfficialhow is the city riding when compared to speed 400? Was clutch play required on the speed 400 as much as on triumph?

Cheers this was shot at Tamhini near Pune
that was an excellent review of the new HD. Living in Southern Indiana, bikes on the road are 90% HD. One of my bikes is a Trident 660 and weighs 1 Kilo less than the Harley 440. Kinda rest my case here that really does not have to be made.

Fantastic review, as always! Your observation about tier 2/3 cities is spot on, there's more hype of Harley than Triumph. But sadly, there are no dealerships around to take care of sales and service in those cities.
From what I am told, hero is working on 100 new dealerships this year
seriously can't wait for Street triple 765 review, on your channel, cinematic shots are soo amazing
Already live
Now that's a valid answer and a valid review. Watch it till the end to know what to buy.

Location is Wow , Review is Wow , Sound is wow take a bow sir ji !! this motorcycle makes perfect sense if you feel the bike in probably every speed and every gear 115 -120 cruising is phenomenal because that's exactly what you will be doing on a Triumph as well talking only about cruising speeds ....man I am confused I have booking for both the bikes not sure which one to choose

Last Sunday I rode the speed 400. Nice motorcycle but after seeing x440 in flesh I'm impressed by x440 and also the feel of engine it's lovely.
I'm also confuse between those 2 motorcycle 😅
The Speed 400 is not as refined as the Harley at 100+ kmph
@@reetabratabhattacharya4748are you kidding? Today I rode speed 400. Speed 400 is amul butter
Waiting for this since this morning. Confirmed my booking of the Triumph just an hour back.
Happy to help. Congrats on your purchase
Which city?
@@DR-mq1le Pune
Advance booking or fresh booking ?
@@FoodPawn-Travel Booking Confirmation. By paying 23k over and above the initial 2k that I paid on launch day.
How about the sitting comfort ? Is it as good as classic 350 for both rider and pillion?
Nothing beats riding comfort of enfields 350/500
The throttle and the brake hose could be positioned facing downward in the Harley for a cleaner cockpit

When I saw hd440x promo video, instrument cluster showed traction control. Why it's not included in production bike?
No idea. Maybe something they might offer in the future
To sum up can we now call this a HERO-DAVIDSON 😂 Your review was On point Sarge. And as always loved every second of it. I'm glad they brought Harley back to the market and did a Good job. Hope to test drive both of these in my nearest showrooms.

It's not a bike of hero all the engine body design etc are by Harley
Due to their backout in Indian market Harley is manufactured and sold in hero factory like triumph in Bajaj
Can you call triumph as Bajaj triumph

Hey Sarge .. please review Bajaj N160 vs TVS RTR 160 4v
Excellent review of both Triumph 400 and Harley 440. Been hooked onto your channel since your Scrambler 1200 review. 1200 review reminded me of Steve McQueen motorcycle scene from The Great Escape and for some weird reason 1200 has just that retro look which hooked me to it. Alas I couldn't afford it but here comes the Speed 400 . I am no enthusiast , had sold my Solid commuter unicorn 5 yrs back and especially at age of 44 and after recovering from back issues a spark is rekindled . BUT I'm confused, considering the suspension and overall seating comfort between the HD 440 and Tr 400. You see i commute ' off-road 'on the tarred roads between Mumbai and Thane. Could you or anyone advise?
Wait for the scrambler 400
Good review!!

Quick questions:
Does Triumph Speed 400 be comfortable for 5"5 FT?
How good is the Speed 400 for touring with pilion?
Does Triumph Speed 400 be the most promising and the best motorcycle under 2.85 Lacs on the road here in Gurugram?
Waiting for a reply. Thanks in advance 😊
The Harley would be a better bet for touring with a pillion but the speed is the better bike of the two overall
Im 5.5 bro I recently test ride the speed 400 for our height no problem , if you have driven mt15 ? Same feel you will get on height

Hi Sagar, I have booked Triumph 400.I am looking to buy riding gear as I am planning to go for outstation rides. Rynox was my top priority and I will go for riding occasionally but I definitely want CE level 2 protection as I don’t want to compromise on safety. Which jacket is better for my use “AIR GT 4” or “TORNADO PRO 4 “
Air GT 4
Sir i have checked with bajaj to enquire about speed 400 here in mysore, they are telling we didn't yet get the partnership with triumph. I have a concern where to check speed 400 other than bajaj then?
You will have to check with your closest Triumph dealer
Great review, just wasn't sure about your comment riding in 3rd gear in city traffic. Are you saying there isn't enough torque available in that situation?
Most long stroke engines can easily chug along in the third gear in the city but with the Harley i found myself having to feather the clutch to ride in the 3rd gear in the city despite it making 34nm torque at 2k rpm.
@@SagarSheldekarOfficial thanks for clarifying, indeed unexpected, will pay attention during my test ride on this point
Can the hd x440 cruise easily at 110 or do we have to accelerate/rev a lot to maintain that speed?...
It can
sir, wht do u suggest, a triumph 400 speed or harley davidson 440 x for street
Speed
I have booked both the bikes and confused between the two. Which bike do you think is more suited for long rides with pillion?
I think the Harley will fare better there
sarge desperately waiting for h2 and h2r review of yours please bring it soon i know h2r is bit off charts but would like to see you review it .
Wish they had a media bike available for review
Sir Bike is good for 6.2 tall guy? By looks nd city cruise which will be better classic 350 , speed 400 and Harley x440
Good chance it will feel a bit cramped for you
Sir classic 350 vs Harley x440 ?
This design is quite polarizing. There uncanny gaps between the fuel tank and the handlebar as well as the gap in the fender which give it a very odd side profile.
True that. Hate the design
Wanted a suggestion from u sagar, was thinking of booking the x440. Wouldn't it be wiser to get a used harley for that v twin experience. Im a bit confused, pls lemme know what u think
If you want a Harley experience then I won't recommend the x440
Are they planning to launch new version of X440 with updates? Or Speed 400 is better?
Speed better
Its true people from the tier 2 cities have crazy following for the Harley name and its iconic exhaust.
It is truly a Harley Davidson then, good for cruising not great for daily traffic riding.
It's definitely better than the bigger Harleys in the city
Sarge,, kindly suggest that if buying the Suzuki Vstorm 250 is a good deal for both on &off road,,,i own a Karizma first generation, A RX135 modified & a Shogun,, modified,,, since R3 or rather MT 3 is not announced,,,,,& since i have a history of participating in TSD rallies for various FMSCI clubs,,,,( but not in 2 wheelers anymore) ,,so as Mr Wick said,," I need something robust, precise" & very dependable,,,i will wait for your suggestion,,as spares for Karizma premium sports is getting extinct,but I ain't selling it, no way
Check out my review on the vstrom to know more. The r3 and MT03 are launching later this year

I second that. Their angles and point of view remind me of the movie, "Madmax". Kudos to them for excelling in their craft.
How is the low end torque compare to classic 350?
The Harley is punchier once past 2500rpm
From the start go Classic could be better.. Hunter is clearly better though.. But can't be applied to Classic as their tyre sizes are different!..
on pont killin it

Hello Sagar, Could you also review Hero Maverick 440 ?

Which one you would pick personally

Need a recommendation for a bike that covers city well, that zooms past faster, good city menover , that includes the bad traffic, pot holes and dug up roads . Also occasional touring, and mild lesser Rocky adv riding .
I use a Yamaha commuter that does well in city , but would like to move ahead with more powerful bikes .
I travel 60km min a day in city and weekend travel when I get time.

Thx Sagar,
Will you be doing Karizma review when it arrives, I guess it's still got some connection since Fergi days 😊
Is it big enough for Ride+Pillion+luggage over long hauls? I am one of those who booked the bike but not sure whether it'll serve my purpose as mine is and has always been a one bike garage.
Easily
I found it reasonably spacious for long rides with a pillion. Not sure about the luggage mounting options though
i also booked for the same reason 😄
Sagar Sir , please do full detail review on 2024 jawa perak and jawa bobber
When they lend me one
Hey Sarge! I have a question. I have a RTR200 bs3 which came with KYB at both ends. I have switched the rear monoshock to newer Showa. I feel that the ride has become harsh. Have you noticed or is it too long of a gap to remember?
I don't remember finding the new rtr 200 harsh. If anything it strikes a good balance between sporty and plush
I used to love sports bikes earlier...but as I became older my love for modern classic grows...Guwahati...my home city don't have a...Triumph...shown room to feel the...BEAUTY...😔

Already reviewed it
This motorcycle will probably upset a lot of the Harley faithful here in the US. But I’d love if they would bring these to America. The lowest priced HD here in the US is $12,000 for the Iron 883.
I don't see this coming to the US and honestly it is not really a Harley. Lacks the design language, the craftsmanship and fit and finish that you expect from a Harley

The triumph looks amazing in the showroom but like a shiny toy on the road. X440 on the other hand has a good road presence and better sound. A bit like a difference between the lion in the cage and lion in the forest are two different animals.
Is there a friendly 600cc beast in India? I'm looking to upgrade. I'm looking for a linear power superbike that sounds good and has a reliable engine. Any picks?
Cb650R
Yet to ride the Honda but the cb650r is a good option along with the Triumph trident

Would like to learn the way you ride 😂. Saw the review just after a minute of notification. But couldn't comment. Thanks for the comparison between the two. Now I am confused on speed 400 capability on cruising speed. I have booked scrambler. I own currently CBR 250R which can easily cruise at 120kmph with almost nil vibrations. Speed 400 seems to do what I expect and wanted till 100kmph as you reviewed. But I need 120kmph relaxed cruising as I tour a lot. Do speed 400 has the engine refinement where it can cruise at 120kmph without any stress on the engine ? Please let me know.
The one I tested could easily cruise at 130
@@SagarSheldekarOfficial Thanks for the reply.But many say above 110kmph there are considerable vibrations and stress on the engine is evident ? Is it true ?
@@JC-nx5xxthen believe others & why are you asking Sagar!!
@@pravinmurthy what's the problem with you kid ? If you don't know why it was asked just shut. The bikes are inconsistent in vibration. Few had vibes at 4000rpm and few had at 7000rpm. Wanted to confirm with Sagar. You just concentrate on your business 😜.
Triumph Speed 400 will be available in most of the states in India in a price of 2.8 lakhs+ onroad except few states where road taxes are pretty high. But the Harley in fact which I feel more of a expensive Hero product now starts at 2.8 lakhs+ ex showroom.
And now I feel how can Semi Urban India meet this price quoted by Hero-Harley despite a better class leading product already available at mariginally lower price. The pricing needed to be sensible to capture Tier 2 and 3 cities crowd. But they just failed to deliver what Bajaj Triumph gave us.
Btw again a Top Notch review Sarge.❤
For the same reason people have bought the rebadged bmw which is more expensive than the tvs rr310.
@@SagarSheldekarOfficialSo true. People prefer brand names over the value proposition and being an Indian, I too don't blame them. As I myself aspire to own those brands bikes one day.
