Hero Motocorp has recently introduced the much-anticipated Hero Mavrick 440, a motorcycle that draws inspiration from the Harley-Davidson X440.

3. Powertrain: Under the hood, the Mavrick 440 shares the same 440cc, single-cylinder, air/oil-cooled engine as the Harley-Davidson X440. Generating 26bhp at 6,000rpm and 36Nm of torque at 4,000rpm, this powerhouse ensures an exhilarating ride. The 6-speed gearbox with the Slip and Assist clutch system adds to the smooth and dynamic performance.
4. Suspension & Tyres: While maintaining the same chassis as the Harley-Davidson X440, the Hero Mavrick 440 opts for a more conventional 43mm telescopic suspension setup at the front. The rear features a twin shock setup. Unlike its counterpart, the Mavrick 440 sports 17-inch wheels at both ends, with front and rear tires measuring 110/70 R17 and 150/60 R17, respectively.
