Hero HX 250R Takes Inspiration from Buell Design

The Hero Motocorp has already planned for its upcoming motorcycles, which will be going to rule the Indian two-wheeler market in the year, 2015. The new upcomings from the firm are Hero HX 250R and Hero Hastur. The newly introduced products are the prototypes, one is featuring faired sports bodywork and another one is a naked sports motorcycle. Apart from these two new entries, the Hero Motocorp has recently collaborated with an America based two-wheeler manufacturer, Erik Buell Racing (EBR). The EBR is well-famed motorcycle manufacturer, as it carries an amazing design and built quality.

By having a closer look to the Hero HX 250R, one can easily fetch out that the design inspiration of the upcoming sports motorcycle has been taken by the EBR. It is quite a good-looking machine surrounded by high-class built quality, designer graphics over the bodywork and various other technical features. However, a prototype of 250cc engined motorcycle has been shipped to India from America, but luckily it doesn't reveal any single information about the loaded motorcycle.

The Hero HX 250R is powered by a liquid-cooled, single-cylinder motor configuration. The 249cc displaced fuel-injected engine is tuned to fetch out a churning power of 31 BHP @ 9000 RPM and a peak torque of 26 Nm. The engine is coupled to a 6-speed transmission. As of now, we are just having a "Prototype Test Motorcycles", as the company is still working on the model and preparing to launch quite soon. The Hero HX 250R weighs just 139 kgs. The company claims that it would be able to reach 0-100 KMPH in just 8 seconds, carrying a top speed of 160 KMPH.
