The all-new Hero Mavrick 440 has been Hero's most powerful bike. It ends up with rather attractive styling. Although the torque is reduced by 2 Nm, the majority of the underpinnings are the same as the Harley-Davidson X440. The bike appears to have a solid feature list. Nevertheless, the bike is devoid of USD forks, and the component quality may have been a little higher.
Design
According to Hero MotoCorp, a lot of effort has gone into highlighting the motorcycle's toughness and muscularity. The Mavrick is able to produce a visually appealing product. The bike appears pretty contemporary thanks to the huge turn indicators and circular LED headlamp on the fascia. Nonetheless, the massive tank shrouds give the bike a manly appearance when viewed from the dead front.
Hero MotoCorp has created a distinctive look with the big fuel tank, exposed chassis tubing, and single seat. Though some of us would describe it as commuter-ish, a lot of others would like it. Because of the larger turn indicators, grab handle, and wider tyre, the motorcycle's rear end also has some good bulk.
Specifications
Engine and Gearbox
A 440cc single-cylinder, air- or oil-cooled engine producing 26 bhp and 36 Nm of peak torque powers the new Hero Mavrick. However, the performance of this bike is unaffected by this decrease in torque. It is connected to a six speed gearbox.
Performance
The bike has been adjusted to provide comfortable riding. While not luxurious, it is sufficient for reducing tiredness. The comfort of the seat on this bike is a major plus. The bike is quite simple to hop on, and the seat height is decent. The seat triangle is ideal for off-roading, touring, and even commuting once you're in the saddle. Living in city traffic circumstances will be made easier by the upright, dominating ergos.
Features
The entire bike is illuminated with LEDs, including the headlamp, which also features LED DRLs. The negative display is applied to the instrument cluster, although it is entirely digital. Both Bluetooth and smartphone app communication are supported by this device. Riders can check phone and message notifications, phone battery life, and turn-by-turn guidance with this system. Numerous pieces of riding information are displayed on the cluster itself, including speed, real-time mileage, gear indicator, distance to empty, and odometer readings.
Suspension and Brakes
The Mavrick 440 is equipped with a monoshock, telescopic front forks, and a trellis frame. A 320mm front and 240mm rear disc brake with dual-channel ABS is part of its braking system. 17-inch wheels with 110/70 front and 150/60 rear tyres are fitted with brakes. While the mid- and high-spec trims have alloy wheels, the base model has spoke wheels.
Variants
There are three variants of the Hero Mavrick 440 available: base, mid, and top. Arctic White, Celestial Blue, Fearless Red, Phantom Black, and Enigma Black are its five colours.
Pros
- You take a natural, comfortable seat on the bike.
- The suspension keeps you rooted and comfy by absorbing the majority of the harshness of the bumps.
- Ploughshares are pleased with the cosy seat, convenient backrest, and comfy suspension.
- A smooth and powerful engine that has sufficient torque for overtaking at high speeds makes for a pleasant ride in the city.
- The cheapest motorcycle has more than 400 cc.
Cons
- It looks outdated and provides poor legibility in bright light.
- The bike's design is a little too basic, so it won't stick out among the many more attractive motorcycles available.
- The Mavrick is a nice motorcycle, but it doesn't immediately evoke strong feelings in the way that other motorcycles do.
Price
Hero has set the pricing of the Mavrick 440 at Rs. 1,99,000 for the base model, Rs. 2,14,000 for the mid, and Rs. 2,24,000 for the top model (all ex-showroom, PAN India).
