Harley-Davidson Launches X Series Affordable Motorcycles in ChinaHarley-Davidson launched the X series motorcycles in China in March and April this year, introducing the Street X350 and Retro X500 models that are currently the company's most affordable models, priced at RMB 33,388 and RMB 44,388 respectively. This shows that Harley-Davidson has done thorough research on the Chinese motorcycle ma
rket, as the 350cc street bike and 500cc retro bike are popular in the domestic market. By introducing entry-level models, Harley-Davidson hopes to gain a foothold in the medium-sized motorcycle market and reduce the barriers to entry for potential enthusiasts. The lowest-priced X350 was initially priced at RMB 33,388, which is not very high compared to other 350cc street bikes in China, such as
the QJMOTOR Z3 350, which is priced at RMB 26,999. However, some dealers in certain areas have lowered the price of the X350 to around RMB 20,000, with the final price being under RMB 25,000. The naked bike is priced at around RMB 25,000, with a final price under RMB 30,000, making it a great value. As Harley-Davidson's smallest and most affordable motorcycle, the X350 has already been launched i
n several countries overseas, demonstrating the company's confidence and momentum in the small displacement motorcycle market. The X350 is a sporty retro street bike that does not feature Harley-Davidson's signature American cruising style. Instead, it adopts the classic Flat Tracker style of the iconic XR750, with many elements of sportiness and retro flavor on its body. The LED headlight with
the "Harley-Davidson" logo and other design elements are highly recognizable. The X350 is equipped with a water-cooled 350cc twin-cylinder engine that can produce a peak power of 27kW and a peak torque of 31Nm. It can reach a maximum speed of over 140km/h and comes standard with front and rear dual-channel ABS systems. At a price of less than RMB 30,000, the X350 is a great value, and the twin-cyl
inder sound is also impressive. Although the power of the X350 is sufficient, it is still slightly inferior to the Zongshen ZT310-G and the Kayo KTM 390 in terms of performance.Will the New X350 Release a Low-Seat VersionThe X350 has a high seat height of 817mm, which may be a challenge for some riders. However, there is speculation about whether a low-seat version of the new X350 will be releas
ed. The 13.5L fuel tank capacity is average for this class of motorcycles, but actual fuel consumption of the X350 is slightly higher than that of its peers. Nonetheless, the X350 boasts an impressive feature - its super high ground clearance. While the minimum ground clearance of most motorcycles in this class is around 150mm, the X350's ground clearance is as high as 185mm, which is higher than
that of most street bikes and some ADV models. With good off-road performance, it is suitable for adventure touring. The X350 features a tubular steel frame with inverted rebound adjustable front suspension and oil-gas separation rebound damping preload adjustable rear shock absorber. The front floating disc with four fixed-piston calipers and the rear single sliding piston caliper, together wit
h the Magis Supermaxx ST tires, provide outstanding braking performance and riding comfort. Over the years, the Harley X350 has been a subject of controversy, with many people looking down on Harley's small displacement models, believing that they have compromised the brand value. However, the X350, with its price tag of less than 30,000 yuan, is still competitive in the domestic motorcycle mark
et. Regardless of opinions, the existence of the X350 is reasonable.
