    Hero Fanboys Rejoice! Multiple Bikes Incoming

    Hero MotoCorp is unlikely to make any major changes to the 163cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine. Currently it makes 15.2PS and 14Nm, and we don’t expect any changes in that. It would now be E20 fuel compatible and comply with the BS6 phase 2 emission norms.


    The Hero Xtreme 160R is currently priced at Rs 1.19 lakh onwards and we expect the upcoming model to demand Rs 5,000 over this. This bike will continue to battle it out in the super competitive 160cc segment and challenge the dominion of the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, the Bajaj Pulsar N160 and the Pulsar NS160.

      My Hero bike
      It is an awesome bike. Good colour combination, good engine, great pickup and a good mileage. Comfortable while riding makes it a great bike for day to day commute. It is an awesome bike in any way you look at it. It is also low maintenance so you wouldn't need to worry about servicing very often. I had a great time riding it for more than 2 years.

      Totally worth for money .
      Over and all Hero is a good choice for me my whole family have a Bikes of hero. They keep the basic things in mind and make a bike which I feel a a good for a rider. I would be very thankful to Hero for the bike they have made special for 160. I did a ride to Nagpur to ladakh and it was like a 160 cc bike cant do that but unfortunately I did . It was like impossible to possible. The whole credit goes to Hero how bike has been designed and the speed mileage . It feels like no problem even the off-roading also feel like I am sitting in a 4-5 Lakhs bike. Heads off to Hero again. Yes absolutely this bike is like a heaven for middle class people the style, the looks and many more totally worth for the value of the bike. I would always recommend this bike for everyone. There is no negative point first of all . And yeah I would love to express more but yeah that's all for now.
