You have no idea what talking about 🙄
should do a TRX review on this track
Keep up the great work. Happy to support you guys!!
So Harley is going up against the Japanese with a Royal Enfield. Excellent!
So sick brother! Much love and keep pushing that positivity 🙏🏻
There not available anywhere else because of benelli. This is a rebadged benelli.
Sick vid bro 💫💫
chur brudda
Original color!
Thats one more!!
Solid brother💫
thanks my bros!
Ooooo, im looking forward to the first official display. I will stay tuned.
Just got word since posting this that we will be on display at the NZ Motorcycle show!
In the US the CBR650R unrestricted is 94hp out of the box.
Best game of all time
Same flick key, same Chinese manufacturer as my Benelli 502c. The x500 even sounds the same as my Benelli. Not necessarily a bad thing.
$140 bucks wow ! Now it’s only $19.99
Ugly bikes. Jesus wtf is HD doing. The Iron 883 or 48 were a alot better.
Made in China! Its pretty sad that one of America's biggest icons has sold out too! Build shit here we need jobs and quality
The X500 is a nice looking bike. I wouldn’t mind one! I bought a 2024 CFMOTO 450SRS Sports Bike as my 1st bike, and love it!
What's the latest update on this? When are they planning to release it on the market?
Harley Leoncino 500
Awesome! I look forward to following the journey.
heck yeah! its gona be awesome
Saw this vid and had to go check one out. Nearly fell for a Street 500 and then I sat on one of these , fit like a glove and bought it that day! Absolutely love this bike for commuting around town, to gym etc. After 500km's and thru the wear in period , it just keeps getting better and after it's warmed up properly those pops, bangs and burbles get real gnarly on the downshifts just adding to the experience. Liquid cooled and electronic fuel injection I know some in old boys club are going to hate it but I don't care, I think Harley is heading in the right direction.
Blah blah blah
The Harley that you showed over there on the 2nd picture is a street rod xg750a. Not to be confused with the xg750.
Pls test front usd in speed breaker , how is comfortable or pushing back hard towards up...
This is just a Royal Enfield with the Harley badge, so I'd rather just be honest and ride a Royal. I'm sure they're both great, but don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining.
Sounds like crap
I like Nioh 1 way better than Nioh 2. Williams a badass
You and your girls haha
Just had a look at one at Harley in Orange nsw it’s a cool looking little bike
As soon as I saw the shop front, I knew it was Takapuna😄
I ride a 2020 Royal Enfield Classic 500 and am looking for a more usable highway friendly 80klm each way bike. Love the upright position and the mid controls and that they use the reliable Benelli motor and tranny.
It looks muscular and pretty cool. Similar to the Leoncino.
You did well, a lot of people hate the fact that HD should've sticked producing their own motorcycles. But that wouldn't be possible a couple of years from now if they haven't collaborated with QJ Motor of China and Hero Corp of India. Their collaboration with QJ Motor also made a great sale with the QJ Motor SRV250,300 & 400 which I believe HD receives a royalty. Those Harley X300 & X500 manufactured by QJ is a huge step up to attract younger and beginner riders into the brand. I just hope they'll have a long term collaboration with QJ Motor which is one of the most important manufacturer in China. Great review. Ride safe.
You're right, and looking at bike sales across all brands in Europe, North America and Aus/NZ it is silly to focus on the demand of just these regions. The collabs with Hero and now QJ are a big flex by the bar and shield moving in to the ASEAN and Indian markets where absolutely everybody rides bikes. There's a big market to capture and HD is going for it. Good on em I rekon. I look at the 2024 Heritage Classic, for example, and I think like wow what a timeless classic. They will never really go out of style. But these new offerings, like the new Sportster S with the RevMax engines and now the x350 and x500 are for a wider audience and IMO Harley has nailed it and I think have an exciting future in Australasia with these new designs, tech and big production collabs.
@@nicox500 Exactly my point. And to think that QJ itself, made possible with their collaboration with Harley. Makes bikes looks so similar with a Harley. (SRV125,200,250,350,600 & 400) that I believe gives HD a royalty which in turn gives HD another profit. I mean, HD should have done this a long time ago. A lot of people likes to go into the brand but they couldn't. Which in turn can change minds with a cheaper options (Japanese and other chinese brands. Even indian brands like RE).
does it have 3 speeds? Is the wand attachment fitting compatible with any other brands?
Would you recommend the X500 for someone 6 foot 4?
You'd be pushing it, but at that height you're going to be limited anyway, if you swapped out to some taller MX bars you might be okay? - best thing is to have a sit / test ride and see for sure
Harley ate bringing out a great selection 👌 i love all the new liquid cooled bikes not before time. I went out and bought a sportster s as i was done with the air cooled bikes was going another brand but then the bikes rolled out so i stuck with the brand. Its a great bike as i love sport bikes but at 53 wanted more relax and its great fast and relax ❤ surprised me how comfortable it iis.
try it on grass that hasten been cut the day before.
great video best wishes from the USA!
Thank you! You too!
The 350 has a flat track look which is quite cool.
yeah very nice look indeed!
You are so lucky to be the first to ride the X500 The engine sounds good and seems pretty powerful for a learner bike. Glad you tested the A350 aswell. The only thing I do not like is the press to cancel on the indicators. I would want to change that, But thats just my opinion. Really good bikes though by the looks of them and everything you would expect from a Harley.
Yes I am!, friends in the right places hey!
@@TheEmpireMediaGroup Right on for sure.
nice review. well done
Thanks!
I'm not a 'Harley person' but, I the X350 and 500.
Maybe we can turn you yet ;)
I don't care that it wasn't made in the US thats ok. I'm NOT ok with it being made I'm China. F Xi F the CCP
Looks shit
Rebadged Benelli but cost a $3000 premium to get the Harley badge.
You're right it's a 2022 Benelli Leoncino 500. LOL.
@@jerichostevens2711 I'd prefer a Benelli, even if it is made in China
Alot of clutch action.. try natural at the red lites.. otherwise intriguing bike
They make the Sporter all so china
Grip puppies sort out the grips & help with vibes.
Harley x500 is basically a Benelli Leocino 500 using their frame & motor & are tried & tested for several years now. Also it has alot of features for a 500 like Preload adjustable forks & twin discs on front & Benelli Leocino 500 is considered the best of overall Learners bike.47hp 46Nm which is a step up over Street 500 which was made India for everyone outside of US the Americas moaned so much about Indian made Street HD built a factory only building Street 500-750 for US market only everyone else got Indian made Street. Are the fenders,tank metal?
Chinese bikes with a name stuck on them should be made in the us
I’ve traveled around the sun almost 70 times. Refreshing to see Harley Davidson venture out of their shell. I’d love to see those models here in the U.S.
I'd suggest it's already available in the USA. Called a Royal Enfield, has better quality with a great warranty.
@@creigmacc I don’t see the resemblance.
@@chiefjoseph8154 I'm referring to the category/engine size of motorcycle. Benelli imports essentially the same motorcycle as the HD X series currently if Chinese made is desired.
Harley did make these. The street 300 and 500. They didn’t sell in the US. These will be coming to the states but only for Harley dealerships that offer an “academy” to help people learn to ride.
