If you've been following the snippets we brought you from the Auto Expo this year, you'd know that Hero MotoCorp has got quite a few products lined up for the next few months. While we had a good look at the Splendor Pro Classic (cafe racer), the Dash and the ZIR, it's the HX250R that's slotted for a launch soon (and by that, we mean sometime later this year).
The HX250R is going to be a big deal for Hero as it'll be the first 250cc machine from the auto maker. More importantly, it'll also be built from scratch, right here on Indian soil.
Designed in association with Eric Buell Racing (just like the Hero Karizma ZMR), the bike runs on a 249cc fuel injected single cylinder unit - Engines Engineering and AVL have been involved in its development. The engine churns out 30PS, puts out a maximum torque of 26Nm and comes linked with a six-speed manual transmission.
The motorcycle is fully faired and features dual headlamps with LED strips similar to those on the ZMR that act as pilot lamps. It has clip-on handlebars and a raised fuel tank commonly observed on sportsbikes.
