Hartford HD 200 S - Specifications & Review

Company History

Hartford Industrial leverages Taiwan’s disciplined manufacturing to deliver honest, durable 125–200 cc machines that thrive on poor roads and limited maintenance. The company’s commuters and light dual-sports emphasize parts availability, simple service access, and frames that tolerate luggage and daily knocks. In export markets, Hartford fills the gap between rock-bottom no-name imports and premium Japanese/Taiwanese rivals, offering EFI where required, decent brakes, and electrics that behave in rain. Fleet buyers—delivery companies and schools—value predictable costs per kilometer, while private owners appreciate that a Hartford will start after a week in the rain and keep running with basic attention. Historically, Hartford embodies Taiwan’s middle-market strength: pragmatic bikes that do their jobs quietly for years. In cities where a motorcycle is a family’s second-most important asset after a home, that predictability is transformative—opening job catchments, enabling night classes, and reducing the daily friction of movement.
