Hero Bikes Spotted
There were two upcoming Hero bikes’ spottings this week. Two bikes were first spotted, out of which one was the updated Xtreme 200R and the other one was the Karizma XMR 210. Check them out here.
And the very next day, the upcoming Karizma was spotted once again and it does look quite like the Kawasaki Ninja 400. Here’s your second look at it. Talking about faired bikes, Yamaha recently discontinued the gorgeous R15 World GP 60th Anniversary Edition. More about it here.

Electric News
The Royal Enfield electric bike has been a hotly-anticipated one and we could very well see its first prototype this year! The brand has also acquired a new 60-acre land for a new plant in Chennai.
Next was news that’ll delight many. Electric two-wheelers in India could not only get safer, but also more affordable. Here’s how that could happen.
Pulsar 125: First look + reaches dealerships
This week we got our first look at the updated Bajaj Pulsar 125. The bike is now OBD 2-compliant and sports rather weird-looking alloy wheels. We even went out of our way to source images of the updated bike, which you can check out in our exclusive story.
New variants-
Last but not the least, we saw new variants for as many as three two-wheelers. The Ather 450X was the first one as it got a new base variant. What was even more interesting was that its prices were slashed by a massive Rs 43,826! Here’s how much it costs now. Next was the TVS Raider, which now got a new single-seat variant.
Last on the list was the KTM 390 Adventure. This variant of KTM India’s flagship ADV has been stripped down of all of its features and gets a chunky price cut too. Check it out here.

- XMRRide The LegendBeast on highway in this segment. Smooth suspension. Overall, great pickup and performance, maintenance is very low, braking is also awesome. Also the handling of the bike is great as well as the grip on the road. Good looking, attention catching, stunning performance and low maintenance. Anywhere you go with this bike, everyone will notice it and many of them ask which bike is this. Pillion comfort is not so good. For a person who wants to be different from the crowded bikes in this segment and wants more performance. Also in this segment, in fully faired bikes, there are very less options like some of them have Plusar RS200, many of them have Yamaha R15 but rarely someone have this pure beast and monster Hero Karizma XMR Combat Edition.Read More2
