Design Philosophy: Together With This Eternal Elegance

The Harlen 252 draws direct inspiration from the classic European aesthetic: flowing lines, minimalist bodywork, and evoking a bygone era wherein motorcycles were more than machines but a form of art in motion. Its appealing bike form is designed to give that fluid riding experience, appealing to riders who appreciate not only the joy of the ride but also the bike's form itself.

Powerful Heart: The 249cc Engine

At the heart of the Harlen 252 is an all-new self-developed 249cc engine. The engine boasts a compression ratio of 10.3:1 and churns out 20.7kW at 9000rpm and 23.5Nm of torque at 8000rpm. The all-new V2 power platform gives the bike an ideal balance between power and style, capturing the thrill of the ride with the aesthetics of yesteryear.

Advanced Suspension for Smooth Rides

It comes fitted with a sophisticated suspension designed and fabricated in-house, featuring an inverted front fork and dual rear shock absorbers that provide a comfortable and sure-footed ride on both urban blacktop and unpaved roads. That makes this bike stable and comfortable whether it's treading city streets or country roads.

Safety First Features: ABS & TCS

The Harlen 252 has put safety as a priority; going by that, this model is fitted with ABS and TCS. It goes without saying that, in the presence of these features, ABS will not let the wheels get locked up, and TCS will ensure proper traction on the motorcycle. That gives riders more control, particularly when in dicey conditions.

Stylish Wheels & Excellent Traction

The tires are CST semi-slick, mounted on some very nice aluminum alloy rims. With tire sizes 120/80-16 at the front and 150/80-15 at the rear, this bike returns exceptional grip on both wet and dry surfaces, really boosting stability. These tires further add to the bike's aesthetic appeal, further sealing this as a retro-modern masterpiece.

Range for Adventure: 15L Fuel Tank

Having a traveling range in its 15-liter fuel tank, the Harlen 252 is perfect for riders who can't get enough road time without being forced to stop at every available spot to refuel. Be it weekend road trips or the simple joys of taking a long, serpentine ride, the fuel capacity of the Harlen 252 will keep you going and going.

Retro LED Headlamp & Dashboard: Where Classic Meets Contemporary

Main design components such as the iconic flywing-style handlebars mark the bike different from any other cruiser.

Long Wheel Base for a Grand Ride

Powerhouse Performance: The 385cc Engine

At its heart, Harlen 402 boasts a 385cc engine, capable of returning 26kW at 8000rpm and 36Nm of torque at 4500rpm. It is also based on the V2 power platform; however, it targets higher torque quantities for more dynamic rides.

Smart Technology for the Modern Rider

The Harlen 402 features a few intelligent features that have made the riding experience more modern. These technologies work together for a refined, higher-class ride-one that even the most advanced motorcycle riders will be quite impressed with.

Advanced Suspension for Unmatched Stability

Just like the 252, an inverted front fork and dual rear shocks comprise the highly advanced suspension system of the Harlen 402. The ride is kept stable and comfortable on badly floored roads, instilling confidence in whatever road the motorcycle might be taken on.

Safety Reinforced: ABS & TCS

Also high on the list of priorities of the Harlen 402, for safety is ABS and TCS. The handling and control are significantly improved-particularly when sudden braking occurs or in adverse conditions-which enables riders to take on any road with complete peace of mind.

CST Semi-Slick Tires & Aluminum Alloy Rim

Equipped with CST semi-slick tires on aluminum alloy rims-front 130/90-16, rear 150/80-15-the Harlen 402 is ready to hit everything from elementary to complex roads. Its tire design makes sure it gives the best traction and stability.
