The Harley-Davidson X440 had some rather tough competition in the Premium Motorcycle of the Year category which also had nominees like the Hero Karizma XMR and the new-gen KTM 250 Duke. The Hero Karizma XMR was making a comeback after many years while the 250 Duke saw a thorough refurbishment. But it was the performance, handling and the competitive pricing of the Harley-Davidson X440 which sealed the deal for it.

First modern Harley to get a single-cylinder engine, built for India, in collaboration with Hero MotoCorp, the X440 offers engaging performance with decent levels of refinement and handling. The motorcycle. The 440 cc air/oil-cooled engine makes 27 bhp at 6,000 rpm and 38 Nm at 4,000 rpm.
In terms of features, the bike gets full LED lighting, and we must mention that the Harley-Davidson badge on the LED headlight and the indicators is a neat, premium touch. Then, you have a 3.5-inch colour TFT display which is housed in a circular pod and offers crisp output along with Bluetooth connectivity.
Excellent pricing, decent performance and a good set of features, the Harley-Davidson X440 comes across as a well-rounded package. And it serves as the perfect entry point into the Harley-Davidson family. The idea behind launching this motorcycle was to garner volumes and make Harley-Davidson as a brand more accessible to customers in India and with the X440, the company is well-poised to do exactly that.

At the annual Club BRP event in August 2022, Can-Am unveiled two all-new, all-electric motorcycles – the Origin dual-sport and the Pulse roadster (below). Detailed specs won’t be provided until mid-2023 (at Can-Am’s 50th anniversary celebration), but both will be powered by BRP’s all-new, proprietary Rotax E-Power technology, said to provide “highway-worthy speeds with plenty of horsepower and torque.”
The Can-Am Origin has rally-style bodywork, fork guards, and spoked wheels, in diameters that appear to be 21 inches in front and 18 inches out back, common sizes for off-road tires. The final drive is enclosed, and Can-Am reps would not reveal whether power is sent to the rear wheel via chain (used on nearly all dual-sports) or belt (used on many production electric bikes).

The Can-Am Pulse has the muscular stance of a streetfighter, with racy-looking cast wheels shod with sportbike rubber and a sculpted “tank” that keeps the bike’s profile in line with conventional gas-powered motorcycles. The Origin dual-sport (above) and Pulse roadster share key design elements: distinctive LED headlights, large TFT displays, edgy white and gray bodywork, a bright yellow panel covering their battery packs, inverted forks, single-sided swingarms, single-disc brakes front and rear, and solo seats. Rear cowls may cover pillion seats; passenger footpegs are not visible on either machine, but production versions will likely have passenger accommodations.

The Royal Enfield Himalayan has been updated for 2024. The air-cooled 411cc Single has been replaced with a liquid-cooled 452cc Single with DOHC and 4 valves. The claimed 39.5 hp is reached at 8,000 rpm, and 29.5 lb-ft of torque arrives at 5,500 rpm. The new Himalayan’s entire power curve surpasses that of its predecessor, and the engine revs out farther. The engine is now a stressed member of the frame, and a new gearbox has six speeds instead of five. Located under the fuel tank is a new airbox.
The previous conventional 41mm fork has been replaced with a Showa cartridge-type inverted fork with 43mm tubes, and the rear shock is now a linkage type with adjustable preload. Suspension travel is 7.9 inches front and rear.
As before, the Himalayan rolls on spoked wheels with tube-type rims, 21-inch front and 17-inch rear. There are still single disc brakes front and rear, but the 2-piston front caliper now squeezes a 320mm disc (up from 300) and the 1-piston rear caliper squeezes a 270mm disc (up from 240). ABS is standard and can be disabled at the rear wheel for off-road duty.
2024 Royal Enfield HimalayanThe Himalayan has a new 4-inch TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity. The Himalayan features LED lighting all around, and the tail lighting is innovatively integrated into both rear turnsignals. A USB-C port keeps a smartphone charged.
The new model’s wheelbase is just over 2 inches longer than the original at 59.5 inches, and ground clearance is right at 9 inches. The redesigned fuel tank holds 4.5 gallons, and Royal Enfield claims a range of more than 280 miles.
The 2024 Royal Enfield Himalayan is available in Hanle Black, Kamet White, Kaza Brown, Slate Poppy Blue, and Slate Himalayan Salt. Pricing is not yet available.

The 2024 Triumph Scrambler 1200 X and XE feature the same liquid-cooled 1,200cc parallel-Twin with SOHC and a 270-degree crankshaft as the previous 1200 XC and XE; however, the X is replacing the outgoing XC as a more accessible model than its predecessor, and the XE has been updated to be more off-road ready.
Triumph says the peak power and torque now arrive slightly earlier in the rev range, and a new single 50mm throttle body and revised exhaust headers deliver improved flow and a broader spread of torque through the upper rev range. For suspension, Triumph is now using Marzocchi components on both bikes, which offers 6.7 inches of travel front and back on the X and 9.8 inches on the XE. Reduced travel on the X has allowed for a lower seat height of 32.3 inches – or 31.3 inches with the accessory low seat.

Following the success of previous limited-edition Triumph paint or chrome lines, the company has released the 2024 Triumph Stealth Edition lineup, returning the spotlight to the paint shop. The new custom-style paint finish will be available for one year only on eight of Triumph’s Modern Classics: the Bonneville Speedmaster, Bonneville Bobber, Bonneville T100, Bonneville T120 and T120 Black, Speed Twin 900 and 1200, and Scrambler 900. Each model features its own unique tank design that showcases a dramatic hand-painted finish that intensifies in the light to reveal vivid color.
The process starts with a base layer of mirror-finish metallic Silver Ice applied to each tank, followed by a precisely placed dark-to-light Sapphire Black graphite vignette. Finally, a translucent tinted lacquer is applied in multiple layers to create the topcoat. The transition from dark tinted graphite to vibrant color springs to life when exposed to light, varying in hue and tone under different conditions and appearing different from every angle.
