I bet if HD ever WOULD release this for sale they couldn't keep up IF they priced it like the Royal Enfield 350. You know... those REs that now have a 4-6 month waiting list and sell close to 100k model or month of JUST their 350s and sell way under $5000 out the door. I'm as loyal as any HD guy. 9 HDs over 37 years and riding 42 years.... but honestly RE and even Honda just released a 125 that already has a waiting list (I called)... the inexpensive, simple, light bike is what the world wants and really is what conveys the joy of riding easily for beginners. I went up and up... all the way to pushing 40k for a M8 limited...900 pounds of mini-van like fun... and I was pretty stoked to sell it during covid and pick up a nice old EVO sportster. I told myself it was just until I found something else... but you know what - that little bike is a joy. Smiles in my heart... and with a Saddlemen step up seat, a set of tall Z bars, and it already had forward controls... even at 6'3" I can stretch out and ride all day...and still can move it around in the city with no issues or all the work of pushing around a beast bike. I'd buy the 350. I may look hard at the 500... maybe. Maybe I'll also find a RE classic that actually comes to the store now having been sold already for months. Imagine if HD has that coming to their bottom line.

[@californiapoontappa]

Nah royal Enfield hella raised they're prices

[@Motorcyclewindtherapy]

@@californiapoontappa I didn't know that. I called in 2022 to my nearest dealer and a 350 classic was way under 5k out the door. Good news is Honda is releasing a CB 300? I think... it's under $3000 and also a dual sport CR 150L that will be under 3k too. I'm on a list for that one.

[@californiapoontappa]

So strange to see a Benelli 300 with HD panels! I've been riding the 300 for 5 yrs now so I can instantly recognise the engine, rear suspension and swingarm and the front suspension. And so many other parts.

I feel the same thought bro. Is it rebadge from benelli ?

[@PrithuDeb]

@@jamessteven23 no. But Benelli is simply providing HD with a tried and tested chassis and a fantastic engine. We heard about this bike 3-4 yrs back when I worked at a Benelli workshop and thought it was a joke/rumour.

2023 Harley Davidson Should Use 500cc Rivaling - Royal Enfield Himalayan 411 ABS - Yezdi Adventure ABS - Honda CL500/300/250 ABS - Suzuki V-Strom 250 ABS They go to make Adventure Classic, Harley Davidson makes Scrambler Classic As DUCATI Scrambler 800/1100 ABS. 400cc is the best version for riding long roads in America and Africa.

[@skg901]

Too late😂

[@nyctophilecat]

All just to compete with RE in India

[@monkmoto1887]

You gotta think Harleys main focus is the US. Most riders in the US view 500cc and below as beginner territory and unsuitable for highway use. And it’s kind of true, we have big open highways and distance between destinations is huge. People come here and think it’s like home then act surprised when they find out it’ll take 2 solid days to drive across the country without stopping at 80 mph. There are people in rural areas that drive over an hour just to go to any store.

[@nyctophilecat]

@@monkmoto1887 Is this bike really focused on US?

[@Pipes61874]

They should make the nightster into a 500cc bike for about 7000$ They would sell a shit load of them and people would get into the brand .

[@tomoates8568]

That's not what the company wants anymore. They want to focus on selling merch, and just sell more expensive bikes to people with money

That's just a Benelli tnt300 with a 0⁰ or 360⁰ crank(same crank) .... If they wanted it to be a Harley they should have put a 315⁰ crank and it would sound exactly like a Harley . And the Benelli is extremely heavy for a 300.

[@evannarendraangragani7508]

for the purpose i think it can work, because the weight can accustom a new rider to heavier bikes and the power is low enough to be safe training platform.

Good MSF bike, but IMHO Harley needs to make a 500-650cc V-twin range that aren't rebadged Benelli's. A Nightster is too much bike for most beginners, and that is the new entry point into HD for those outside of Asia.
