The bike will go up against other entry-level ADVs in the market, such as the KTM 250 Adventure and the 2025 Yezdi Adventure. We analyse how much it could cost.
Brixton Crossfire 500 Storr Unveiled
Brixton, the Austrian bikemaker, has finally unveiled its upcoming adventure tourer in India. The Brixton Crossfire 500 Storr will be the brand’s answer to the growing popularity of adventure bikes in the country. Its looks remind us of a beefier Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, while being as powerful as the Honda NX500!
Hero Special Edition Two-wheelers unveiled
Hero has unveiled a special edition of the Hero Vida VX2, the Hero Splendor Plus and the Hero Passion Plus. The special editions of the 3 models have been unveiled to celebrate the 125 million production milestone. Here’s a closer look at the special edition Splendor Plus.
