      Tork Electric Scooter Spotted Testing For The First Time – Rivals Ola, Ather, TVS, Hero

      by

      Tork electric scooter spottedAlongside Tork electric scooter spotted, there was a Tork electric motorcycle test mule as well – Both wrapped with similar camouflageThe push towards electric mobility has turned out to be more popular with 2W vehicles than 4W vehicles, owing to much lower upfront cost. Within the 2W envelope, there is a significant shift in gravity towards electric scooters than motorcycles. Customer reception has been the same. Pune-based Tork Motors is keen on carving out a piece of this pie with a new electric scooter.Tork Electric Scooter Spotted Testing For The First TimeAs of now, Tork Motors is a leading player in electric motorcycle space. A segment that has seen limited action when compared to electric scooters. With mainstream motorcycle manufacturers like Honda, Suzuki and Yamaha still absent, there is some prospective growth opportunity for others and newcomers.Among the newcomers, we have Ola Electric and Ather Energy. Along with that mainstream OEMs like TVS, Bajaj and Hero MotoCorp have made their presence known in electric scooter space too. Tork is playing its hand at the big table with big blinds, betting big on its upcoming electric scooter.There is just one picture from the back and not a lot is known about its specifications. That said, we can deduce quite a lot of deets about this upcoming Tork electric scooter. For starters, this would be Tork Motors’ first electric scooter, which has been primarily an electric motorcycle manufacturer.Tork electric scooterWhat to expect?From the looks of it, Tork Motors seems to be shooting for affordable family scooter genre, something that has gained quite a lot of traction recently. Players like Simple Energy, TVS, Bajaj Chetak and Ola are already operating in this space, while Ather has a product under testing. Scooter juggernaut in India, Honda, is planning to start with this segment too.There is a wide single-piece seat and below that we can see a wide tail light that could be made of LEDs. Production version will get grab rails too. There may be a swingarm-mounted electric motor, from the looks of things. We can see a shock absorber on the left side. Because of limited amount of spy shots, we can’t say whether it is a single-sided setup or a twin shock absorber setup.New Kratos electric motorcycle?There is a large centre stand too. Core powertrain components are likely to be shared with Kratos electric motorcycle, but in different capacity and configurations. We can expect around 100 km of real-world range on a single charge. Speaking of Kratos, Tork seems to be testing a new electric motorcycle as well.Tork Kratos Urban TrimAs seen in the spy shots, there is an electric motorcycle testing alongside Tork electric scooter. This may fall under Kratos line as a variant, or spawn a sub-brand. There are no details on this motorcycle to establish visual differences with current Kratos on sale in India.Source More

      by

      Harley-Davidson X440 New Accessories SpottedAs of writing this article, Harley-Davidson offers 4 accessories including a leg guard, engine guard, centre stand and front windscreenWith the launch of X440, the partnership between Hero MotoCorp and Harley-Davidson has officially spawned a product, with more to follow in the future. The company has already trademarked Hurikan 440 and Nightster 440 names in India which could be an ADV or a street bike. Ahead of that, Harley-Davidson seems to be testing more accessories for X440.Harley-Davidson X440 New AccessoriesHero MotoCorp and Harley-Davidson has mentioned that Indian customers have showed excellent responses to their maiden product. X440 is on offer in three trim levels – Denim, Vivid and S. Prices range between Rs. 2,39,500 and Rs. 2,79,500 (ex-sh) and deliveries have already commenced.On top of the four official accessories that are currently on sale, Harley-Davidson seems to be developing a new range of accessories that a recent test mule showed. These accessories were not showcased at launch or during deliveries commencing period. Multiple dealerships had informed buyers that there were new accessories incoming.The primary among the incoming accessories was rear pillion backrest. The spy shots taken near Hero MotoCorp tech centre, Jaipur, credited to automotive enthusiast XX, show a Harley-Davidson X440 test mule donning a rear pillion backrest. At first glance, this motorcycle looks like a mini bike owing to the large frame of test rider. But it is the X440 and there is no mini bike from Harley-Davidson.Harley-Davidson X440 test muleOther accessories that are expected to arrive, as per Harley-Davidson dealers (unofficial) is bar-end mirrors. However, the test mule spy shots we received didn’t have bar-end mirrors.Accessories on offer right nowCurrently, Harley-Davidson offers six elements as part of PDI kit for free and is offering four official accessories designed and developed for X440. The free elements as part of PDI kit include ORVMs, handlebar weights, saree guard, number plates and two exhaust heat shields, one on the end can and one on catalytic converter.As per paid accessories, Harley-Davidson offers a leg guard and engine bash plate both priced at around Rs. 800. Then there is a centre stand and a softer touring seat both of which are priced around Rs. 1,400. Lastly, there is a small windshield that lends a Cafe Racer look that costs approximately Rs. 400. All prices mentioned may include additional taxes and labour charges.Apart from these, Harley-Davidson also sell branded riding gears for both male and female riders of all sizes. Based on customer demand, there will be further additions to its accessories list for X440 to unlock more potential.Is this a new motorcycle based on Karizma XMR 210?Harley-Davidson has been compartmentalizing in key global markets and is spawning low-cost budget motorcycles to reach a wider range of audience. The partnership with Hero MotoCorp might turn fruitful for Harley-Davidson and the next motorcycle may have an even smaller capacity than current X440.This could be based on the recently launched Karizma’s 210cc platform. This very platform is spawning a version of Xpulse and Xtreme as well. There is a possibility that the recently spotted test mule will be based on 210cc engine as well. More

      Aprilia RS 457 Naked Version Spotted – Duke 390, MT03 Rival

      by

      Aprilia RS 457 Naked Version SpottedSpotted with multiple improvised equipment, Aprilia’s new naked bike is still several months away from reaching production stageAprilia recently launched the RS 457 at India Bike Week at a starting price of Rs 4.10 lakh. Even though many international markets are yet to get the RS 457, a new naked Aprilia bike has been spotted overseas on road tests. From the images, it appears to be the naked version of the RS 457.Aprilia 457 naked bike detailsFrom the round headlamp, it is clear that the naked Aprilia 457 will have a neo-retro profile. But much of the skin is missing, making it difficult to carry out a detailed analysis. Equipment such as the front USD forks appear to be borrowed from RS 457.Aprilia RS 457 Naked Version SpottedHowever, the naked model has the USD forks in golden finish in comparison to black coloured units used with RS 457. The cast aluminium alloy wheels and the 110/70-17 front & 150/60-17 rear tyres are the same as RS 457.Same is true for the braking setup that has 320 mm and 220 mm discs at front and rear. Then, there’s the 457cc, in-line two-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine. It generates 47.6 hp of max power and 43.5 Nm of peak torque. It is mated to a 6-speed gearbox and comes with ride-by-wire tech.Aprilia RS 457 Naked Version SpottedDifferent chassis and swingarmTalking about some of the unique aspects of RS 457’s naked sibling, the bike uses a steel frame. In comparison, the RS 457 has a dual beam aluminium frame. The relatively simple tubular steel frame will be adequate for the naked version. It remains to be seen if the bike’s weight is increased with the use of a steel frame. But the naked version won’t have the fairing, which will help reduce weight. For reference, RS 457 has a wet weight of 175 kg.Aprilia RS 457 Naked Version SpottedAt the rear, the naked bike has a different swingarm in comparison to RS 457. The change has been necessitated, as the rear suspension is mounted on the right side. It is not centrally placed, as is the case with RS 457. Essentially, utilizing a decentralized spring strut instead of the conventional central spring strut.The naked version of Aprilia RS 457 will have a comfortable riding stance. The test mule reveals that the optimal positioning of the foot pegs is currently being evaluated. It is evident from the perforated plates being used for mounting the foot pegs. This allows easy adjustment of the foot pegs, as needed. There is various other makeshift / WIP equipment being used such as the fuel tank and exhaust. The front section is also WIP, evident with the exposed wires, nuts & bolts and mounting brackets.Aprilia RS 457 Naked Version SpottedAprilia naked 457 launch and pricingIn its current format, the naked Aprilia 457 will take several months to reach near-production level. In 2024, Aprilia is likely to focus exclusively on the RS 457. In that case, the naked version will only be launched in 2025. Pricing will be approximately the same as that of RS 457.Source More

      Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm Breaks – Owner Shares Details

      by

      Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm BreaksThe 4 days old Triumph Speed 400 swingarm breaks within 560km reading on odometer while riding on smooth tarmac returning from Solang to ManaliTriumph India is on the verge of expanding its global presence by launching affordable single-cylinder motorcycles in partnership with Bajaj. Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X are the first launches with Thruxton 400 in the pipeline. In a rather shocking turn of events, a 4 days old Triumph Speed 400 has had its swingarm broken in two.4 Days Old Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm Breaks In TwoEsteemed motoring journalist Jeremy Clarkson once introduced an old Toyota Corolla hatchback as the world’s fastest car. Sure, it only had a 1.8L petrol engine and no modifications at all. Reason was, it being a rental vehicle. He further elaborated that said rental car had 140 bhp from the moment he started the engine till the moment he crashed it.Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm BreaksWe mention this reference because the 4 days old Triumph Speed 400 with a broken swingarm is a rental vehicle too and this particular incident seems to have happened in the hands of a client. Owner of said Speed 400 is Abhinav Sood, who runs a motorcycle rental business over the past 10 years with over 130 motorcycles in possession.Of these 130, 8 motorcycles are from Triumph and only one of them has had swingarm breaking issue. Abhinav Sood explained on their Facebook post that motorcycle in question had clocked just 560 km on the odometer in 4 days of ownership. This is normal mileage for a rental vehicle.Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm BreaksHe further explained that this incident happened on a smooth tarmac while returning to Manali from Solang and was not an off-road situation. Mr Sood further claims that the motorcycle was not abused at all and there is nothing that hit this swingarm to break it. He did mention a sliding situation where this motorcycle seems to have fallen and caused this.Spare parts availability of Triumph 400s is very difficultOwner Abhinav Sood raised concerns for safety of his clients who often go to challenging spots in Himalayas like Zanskar, Sach Pass and Ladakh. Many of his clients usually carry luggage and even camping equipment and the swingarm breaking issue puts him in a difficult position to rent out Triumphs.Triumph uses the same cast-aluminium swingarm on Scrambler 400X as well, which is designed to take on beaten paths. There must have been robust engineering on this swingarm to test Scrambler 400X’s hypothetical jumps and landings along with sustainability in harsh terrain where Scrambler 400X is advertised to go.Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm BreaksSocial media users of the said group where this post has been shared, comments section suggest that Bajaj and Triumph should acquire this particular unit from Abinav Sood running BRM Expeditions and perform rigorous testing. One user claims that this would determine if this swingarm needs re-engineering with material choice or metallurgical process. Also, owner Abhinav Sood raised serious concerns regarding lack of availability of spare parts for this brand-new product. Supporting vehicle owners with spare parts is crucial to retain the trust of said owners.Source More
