- Smallest ever Harley-Davidson motorcycle
- Built in association with China-based QJ Motor
- Expected to be launched in India
The X 350 is Harley-Davidson’s smallest motorcycle ever, developed in association with its Chinese partner, QJ Motor. After its global reveal a few weeks back, the X 350 was recently showcased at the Auto Shanghai 2023 in China.
The X 350 is a quirky yet handsome neo-retro offering with its design inspired by the iconic Harley-Davidson XR1200X. The bodywork comprises a round headlamp with a brushed aluminium bezel, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, an angular radiator cowl, and a stubby tail accommodating a single-piece seat. Lending it a clean look is an underbelly exhaust instead of a side-slung unit. The X 350 is introduced in three colour options - Dazzling Black, Joyful Orange, and Bright Silver.
On the feature front, the X 350 is decently equipped as it gets a round semi-digital instrument cluster, a full-LED lighting system, and dual-channel ABS. Powering the motorcycle is a high-revving, 353cc, inline twin-cylinder engine with liquid cooling and a six-speed gearbox. This mill pumps out 36.2bhp and 31Nm of peak torque coming in at 7,000rpm. As for the cycle parts, the smallest Harley rides on 17-inch alloy wheels with upside-down forks and a monoshock. Dropping anchors is a single disc with four-piston calipers at the front and a single rotor with a single-piston at the rear. Tipping the scales at 180kg, the X 350 comes with a 13.5-litre fuel tank.
In China, Harley-Davidson and QJ Motor have priced the X 350 at 33,388 CNY (approximately Rs 3.94 lakh). Although it’s expected to come to Indian shores, the launch timeline is not known yet.
