Design And Road Presence
The Mavrick 440’s design is simple and strong, and has a muscular feel. The cut and graphics are not part of the design as its USP. Big fuel tanks and round LED headlamps, along with chunky tyres, give the bike a beefy, muscular street presence regarding those checks. Such road presence does deserve worthy mentions; Every head turns when the bike buzzes, even in low-gear cornering. The bike’s general posture was slightly upright and comfortable to sit on for long hours, so there were no complaints about one’s body.
Engine Performance
Hero Mavrick 440 boasts a power plant of a 440-cc oil-cooled engine churning out about 27 bhp of power and 36 Nm of torque. The engine behavior for this bike is smooth and refined. Not meant for aggressive pickup from a stop but meant for long, smooth pull with a predictable delivery throughout the powerband; simply put, the best kind of performance in the city, between 40-70 kmph. The bike, however, is good for cruising on the highway at 90-100 kmph with stability. It is the icing on the cake that provides Hero with minimal vibrations with maximum engine refinement.
Ride Quality And Handling
The first thing that comes to mind is that the Mavrick 440 is comfortable to ride. Speed bumps, potholes, broken roads, you name it; the suspension has been thoroughly engineered to absorb everything for riding comfort. Think of consumer position: it is totally natural, bordering neither on sporty-styling nor heavy with an orientation to commuting.

city performance
