I genuinely admire your innovative approach to enhancing the reviewing experience. Your transition from the conventional "hear me out" format to a more engaging "discussion-based" review style is commendable. It takes a combination of hands-on experience, maturity, awareness, and strong communication skills - qualities you clearly possess. Keep up the excellent work, and continue to inspire and support one another! 👍👍👍

[@sudhism1402]

Well putout review👍 I had pondered a lot about Himalayan and X440, confusion lasted for about a month after having good look(ride) of both the these machines. Since am an amature to motorbike touring I opted for the experience that X440 offers over the capabilities of the HImalayan as I do not expect myself to do justice to himalayan for what it's built. 🙂

[@bigbearbangalore]

Well done. Best wishes.

Had ridden the 440x for 900km over 2 days highway Feels well put together, all mechanical parts the, plant, driveline chassis.....all inspire confidence. Feels rugged. She's comfortable at 100kmph in 5th or top, only thing unsettling is how the suspension acts up after that speed..I got airborne cpl of times.. Last night I rode my Scrambler 400x 370 km of highway..all at night. The Scrambler s suspension handles with aplomb anything thrown its way...brake, then release before impact...that maneuver works well. But the engine on the 400x doesn't deliver 100kmph stress free like the 440 does

[@bigbearbangalore]

Well summed up. Thanks.

[@amardpratap]

Watching your videos helped me decide to buy a Harley X440 mid variant (got 15k discount on offer). I test drove back to back the Maverick 440 and Harley X440, although the same architecture - I found Harley has more character in terms of how I felt while driving it - it sounds better, the riding position is commanding (maybe bcoz of higher size front wheel and flat handle), feels more expensive and well built and I was very clear it is the x440. Also test rode Himalayan 450 and Guerrilla 450 back to back. The test ride bike of the Himalayan was a bit old and the engine was noisy. Guerrilla was brand new, felt better built and the engine was relatively smooth compared to the Himalayan. Overall it didn't connect with the nature of the engine, it was fast but not characterful and. Low end pick up was not smooth. I even tried KTM 390 Adv, there as well I didn't like the engine character to my liking. Overall I loved Harley as some bike which is complete, well engineered and built for purpose from scratch and not just permutation/combination of same platform for different bikes. 1. Engine Character (low end and smooth) and Sound 2. Sitting position and Handle 3. Ride and Handling balance 4. Premium bike feel (paint finish) 5. Good Headlights and premium feel of buttons and parts. 6. Cheap maintenance due to Hero Service (also own XPulse 200 4v Pro) I always felt happier after the test ride of x440 and convinced. Discount just fastened by decision making and purchased it. Waiting for the special number 0440 😊 from the RTO. Thanks Bosky and CK for your interesting and heartfelt perspectives. P.S. this comment is copied from another video, but later felt here it is more relevant.

[@narendrakakashimodi]

3:04 The air cooling and water cooling has to do very less to nothing when it comes to power. Power / bhp (applied torque) is torque times RPM divided by 5252. Himalayan 450 and Speed 400 both being over squared / short stroke engines can rev higher and can use that torque in high rpm in the form of more horsepower, while x440 being a long stroke engine can't rev higher but can access the torque in lower rpm compared to short stroke engines which technically* yields higher fuel economy. That's why max torque for Himalayan 450 is @5500 rpm and Speed 400 is @6500 rpm while x440's max torque is only @4000 rpm

[@karpich1994]

Doesnt high revving bikes need more cooling? People just skip the inbetween stuff as its more convenient ig

I understand your explanation on the borr and stroke. And air cooling and water cooling does impact power output. Will explain about this in another video.

Personally I'm looking or interested in Scrmbler or ADV........but due to budget I can't afford it right now......how do you guys think if I go with the Hero Mavrick 440 Base or Mid model compare to Harley X440 or Triumph Scrambler 400X............according my budget shall I go through the Mavrick or should I, wait & increase my budget ........& go with the Harley or Triumph........ and what about the Suzuki Vstrom 250 SX.... & I'm 40 now, and this be my 1 Garaje Bike 🏍 for the remaining time ...........may be my last purchase .............

[@karthikdecibel]

I have an FZ 150 the first version bought it in 2008, after FZ i got Harley X440. I have 80k kms experience riding in city. As i cannot ride a 15yr old bike in my city, i planned well in advance and saved 2.5L in span of 3 yrs to buy 300+ cc bike. Trust me, the wait and ride quality is worth it. I test rode all RE bikes and almost finalised RE-Super Meteor 650. But if you wanna ride in city traffic and dodge traffic especially on longer Signals. This is the best bike for that, triumph is good but a very small and racing engine, for laid back, long stroke engine sound and lack of gear changes, X440 it is

[@airfoil]

Lovely location! Adding some GpoPro riding clips from the specific rides, especially when in nicer locations and maybe specifying the general location will add variety and value and break up the 'podcast' nature of your videos. Maybe you prefer the podcast style, just saying. Point being that I can get most of your conversation with the video playing the in the background without staying on this particular screen.

Thanks so much for concreting my belief on this motorcycle. I took test rides of about 7 motorcycles before finalizing my upgrade and I was quite torn between the Scrambler 400X and this HD X440. But the X440 instantly had a vibe match with me. I was like wow. This is my bike. But the proposition that the Scrambler 400X puts against it, is ridiculing my ability to decide between these two.

Yeah I also face the same about starting the bike in cold start … that you need to give a bit throttle for first few secs(10-20sec) and then release the throttle so that after which the bike takes on from there and adjusts the fueling like it should on a cold start..

I own one and I am suffering with 2 issues sir. I need help with it. 1. Oil splatters out of the engine from the spring where clutch cable is connected. There are engine oil stains all along my right side of the bike right before that cable spring to my silencer can. I asked the service center and they changed 2 seals one for that cable and other for the engine yet the problem persists. I need professional help but the hero service did their best and still couldn’t solve it

[@karan_singh05]

2. Engine heats: my engine heats a lot. Maybe because of the very low average speeds of my city but it heats a lot. All my jeans have a burn patch on the inner right side near the ankle from the engine heat. And also in few sluggish traffic jams the bike has heated to the extent of loosing power or completely stalling. I come from a classic 350 BS3 which relatively felt like a cooler snd smaller

[@bigbearbangalore]

@@bigbearbangalore on it sir 👍

[@karthikdecibel]

Great video sir, very aptly covered and true to my experience, I have ridden the bike for 1700kms in city with lots of speed breakers and potholes. The front suspension is something which is bad in this bike. It tops up very quickly especially if you are above 30kmph speed, slightly deeper potholes and the housing society speed breakers (the black and yellow plastic ones) if you cross them with 20kmph or above speed, there is a clunking sound which comes from the front suspension. During Harley India Ride and first service, I met other X440 owners, many of them reported this issue as well. Now my question for you sir, can anything be done for the front suspension? Can i replace it or can Harley fix it in future in existing bikes? Please share your recommendations, thanks :)

[@bigbearbangalore]

Your review has more weightage rhan ours. Youvare a true owner. Am not sure if any solution for the suspension noise is forthcoming or not. Some RE suspensions too make this noise and there's no clear cure.

Between 440 and cb350rs how much difference in gear ratio??does cb350rs require lot of gear changes in city? Planned for 350rs but confused between two and may be hunter 350 too..

[@bigbearbangalore]

They are somewhat similar. But the HD has more grunt in the low to mid range rpm.

[@sudheerdevalla1]

I would like to buy saftey gear to use on this bike..which brand do you suggest?

[@bigbearbangalore]

I do not have information in this regard. Will check.

[@vivekpal4504]

Hi I'm interested in buying this HDx440 for normally relaxed long rides on highways and in the city as well. But I'm not sure...if occasionally I go to the hills on this bike. How would it perform on mountains? Please reply me

[@bigbearbangalore]

Will do well.

[@ed.t.hansen6499]

opinion as a 2 up rider; with what weight limits ? seems -, looks far more comfy that the scrambler 400x

[@bigbearbangalore]

Try it to know more.

[@pngcarguide_7599]

Sir What about latest Yezdi Roadster?

[@bigbearbangalore]

Don't know much about it

[@pngcarguide_7599]

@bigbearbangalore can you please try this bike and make a video.

[@raghavendraambatipudi82]

Great review & exceptional location SIR

[@bigbearbangalore]

Thanks a ton.

[@gsaive4139]

Confused between Harley 440 and Triumph scrambler. I wish to have a comfortable seating for my wife and kid when I ride. Please suggest

[@bigbearbangalore]

The 440X likely has more seat room. Check it out with pillion.

[@gsaive4139]

@@bigbearbangalore I saw couple of your videos and there were more positive spoken about Triumph Scrambler than Harley 440 and now when you suggest Harley for good seat room and here goes more trouble for me🙃😬

[@sureshavadhani]

I was very impressed with this red harley and wanted to book the same,, however the test drive vehicle which arrived at my house from Hero Premia showroom in nagarbhavi had driven for about 12 KM before coming to my house,, the engine was very hot,, my inner shin / ankle could clearly feel the heat,, did you folks faced those issues ? The TD vehicle had driven about 2800km,, I am concerned and in 2 mins if I should by it or not ,, what is your suggestion ? Pls provide your inputs specifically on engine heating weather you experienced it or not

[@bigbearbangalore]

Yes that heat is normal for a big single air cooled. You've got to manage it.

[@TripGuru]

This engine is vibe free compared to Himalayan and Scrambler.. Lot of bottom end torque. Xpulse 400 should come with this engine with +3 HP & +3NM.

[@bigbearbangalore]

Indeed.

[@srinathiyengar.mudgal]

Bosskey, you did speak about a liquid cooler going on to this machine for possible improvement. How does LIQUID / OIL COOLING help in bettering the performance. Could you please elaborate. Or could there be a 4 Valve setup on the engine. Which would have been a more better option. Just like on the hero xpulse.

[@bigbearbangalore]

Will check on a video possibility to share our thoughts on this matter. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@rohitvanamala]

Hi Sir for someone seriously considering buying this bike, which variant is better between mid and top end?

[@bigbearbangalore]

If I were to buy, I'll buy the mid variant.

[@praveenkumar-sv4nu]

Sir can u suggest one good bike around 3.5 lac. It has to suitable in all altitudes and location.

[@bigbearbangalore]

There is no one solution fits all type of motorcycle. You'll need to do due diligence and pick what works best for you mentally, physically & financially.

[@MrVeracious1947]

Will it good decision to replace Hness350 with Harley440x?

[@bigbearbangalore]

Can be

[@Amar-jp8ou]

Why you want to replace the Hness? I want to buy a new bike and confused between X440, Hness and Meteor350. Hness is on top of the list currently for me. Just want to know what factors are making you to take that decision?

[@janarthananvijayakumar2089]

This will be my first bike beyond Unicorn CB150, I am 6.2 mostly i will be using it for daily commute and occasional long ride. Pls provide ur suggestion btw x440 and Scrambler 400X which one should be my choice. Given my height usecase.

[@bigbearbangalore]

Test ride and choose. They are quite different in character.

[@wamwam5410]

Please give review of Maverick 440 as well Thank you!

[@bigbearbangalore]

Will check on this possibility.

[@maheshwaran1310]

Hello, Big Bear is that possible to change the handle bar of HD 440X to Tvs Ronin or RE Interceptor....

[@bigbearbangalore]

Should be.....

[@maharishipareek3344]

Sir really confused between meteor 350 and HD 440X, taking into consideration rider comfort, cruising between 90-95 and brand presence in India , will keep the bike for a long time.Thanks

[@bigbearbangalore]

Tough choice. Great network of RE vs the allure of the understated HD. Depends on the availability of a competent dealership near you.
