Harley-Davidson to unveil custom X440 scrambler at IBW 2023

India Bike Week 2023 will be held in Goa on December 8-9, 2023.

Harley-Davidson is planning to showcase a new version of the X440 at India Bike Week 2023. It is likely to be a custom scrambler-style bike built by Rajputana Customs.

The X440 scrambler is expected to share most of its components with the standard X440 that is currently on sale. It could use the same tubular chassis with an upside-down fork at the front and twin shock absorbers at the rear.

The bike will be powered by the same 440cc, single-cylinder, oil-cooled engine that produces 27 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 38 Nm @ 4,000 rpm. The engine is paired with a 5-speed gearbox.

Being a scrambler, expect the custom bike to feature a shorter tail section, a different exhaust, wire-spoke wheels shod with knobbly tyres and a flat handlebar with knuckle guards. It might also get an engine bash plate; among other changes.
