Introduction of Xtreme 160R

After the separation of Hero and Honda from their joint venture, both bike legends have been rocking the Indian market to date. Now Hero has come up with its latest street fighter, Hero Xtreme 160R, heating the 160 CD segment in India.

Hero Xtreme 160R is a bike hailed by all the adventure enthusiasts for its sporty outlook. Launched in February 2020, the Xtreme bike looks like a standard bike from afar, but it is a captivating sight with a closer glance.

Hero Xtreme offers a good deal of comfort, performance, and style. Hero CBZ Xtreme gets three colours red, white, blue, and one other limited edition of red and white.

Hero Xtreme 160R has made an impression with its excellent braking system. CBZ Xtreme has LED lights from Headlamps to taillamps, including tune indicators.

As nowadays 150-160cc bikes are in demand, every company is trying to outshine the other companies by improving their bikes or replacing the old variant with a new one.

Hero decided to replace the Hero Xtreme Sports with Xtreme 160R, which itself was the successor to the Hero Honda CBZ Xtreme after moving out of the joint venture.

What Is New in Xtreme 160R?

The Xtreme bike power is a 163cc BS6 which produces a peak torque of 14NM at 6500 rpm. This model generates maximum power of 15bhp at 8500 rpm.

The engine displacement is more than 160cc and has fuel-injected and air-cooled, which helps to generate 15bhp and 14Nm. The Xtreme 160R is the latest offering from Hero to the 150cc-160cc segment. The recently introduced top variant, the 100 million editions, starts at a price tag of 1,12,340.

Talking about the engine

The bike comes with a fuel tank capacity of 12 litres. The BS6 engine offers a mileage of 48km/l with the advanced programmed fuel injection system; Hero claims that one can even extract a mileage of 50 km/l from the bike with economical use.

Hence one can expect a range of 576 kilometres with a full fuel tank. In addition to this, the bike weighs just 138 kgs, making it one of the lightest and easy handling motorbikes in its segment.

Safety Features in Xtreme 160R

It also has not cut on safety features and has given Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) for controlled and advanced braking, and safety comes first for Hero.

The base variant comes with a single front disc option, while the other two variants are available with both front and rear discs ABS-equipped.

The Xtreme 160R is the reply to TVS Apache 160R, Honda Hornet 160R, and Bajaj Pulsar 160 NS.

The Xtreme 160R Hero has a lot to offer great features to the customers. All three variants of the Xtreme 160R feature an alloy wheel and electric start as standard.

Except for Bajaj NS 160’s high power and higher speed, the extreme 160R gives tough competition to its rivals, the Apache and the NS, regarding affordability, design, quality, fit n finish, and features.

Design of Xtreme 160R

Hero Xtreme 160R is sporty yet classy, a perfect combination of both worlds. The 3D embellished logos on the Hero Xtreme gives the bike an exotic look.

The 100 million editions and stealth edition bring a varied range of colours to choose from for the young generation. Hero Xtreme knows the Indian ideology and hence provided this compact bike infused with all the modern tech you can imagine and still resembles the good old traditional street bike look.

Hero Xtreme is an amalgamation of sharp looks, beautiful LED lamps, and a sporty outlay; its fuel tank is there in a place that the rider sits upright while he drives.

Also, the bike comes with vibrant and sporty colour options like the Pearl Silver White, Sports Red, Vibrant Blue, and the latest 100 million limited editions. The Xtreme 160R mainly competes in its segment with Apache 160R, Bajaj NS 160, Honda X-Blade.
