Harley-Davidson X350 leaked ahead of launch, will be the most affordable Harley yet

The first spy shots of the motorcycle reveal that the bike will be called the Harley-Davidson 338R. Here, 338 represents the cubic capacity of the engine. However, it now appears that the motorcycle’s official name will be the Harley Davidson X350. This was done because the engine now has a capacity of 353 cc. It is taken from QJ Motors.

In fact, the chassis is also shared with motorcycles from the QJ Group. The 353 cc parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine made 36 hp. The gearbox should be a six-speed unit. However, the exact specifications are yet to be confirmed.

Braking duties are handled by twin petal discs at the front and a single disc at the rear. Dual-channel ABS will be offered as standard. Suspension duties are performed by USD forks at the front and a monoshock at the rear.

In terms of styling, the Harley Davidson X350 looks compact. There’s a rectangular fuel tank, an underbelly exhaust, a round LED headlight and a sharp rear end. The instrument cluster is a single-compartment analog unit.

Harley Davidson is also expected to develop a more powerful version of the X350. It will be called the X500, and as the name suggests, the motorcycle will feature a larger 500 cc engine producing around 50 hp. The engine will be borrowed from Benelli. The manufacturer uses this engine for the Leoncino 500, TRK 502 and 502C Cruiser.
