Hero's flagship machine HX250R was uncovered in last year's Delhi expo. Machine got overwhelming response from not only Indian's but also from all over world auto enthusiast. This quarter liter machine have its own charm, from muscular tank to under seat exhaust. Hero and EBR have done excellent job to design this machine as unique as possible and surely they have hit the nail. This bike will be the first complete ground up product from EBR and Hero join partnership. Though exact date of launching is not revealed but sources say's bike will be launch at October month in festival season. On the specification sheet bike is absolute blast. while dry weight is just 139 kgs and peak power goes up to 31 bhp and 26NM of peak torque, believe me these figures are overwhelming for any 250 cc single cylinder engine. with such power to weight ratio HX 250 is capable to hit 100kmph mark under 9 seconds with top speed close to 165 kmph. Bike have 2 ignition maps while full power mode give's 31 bhp at very high 9000 rpm, the low power eco mode provides 24 bhp on tap with unknown rpm, probably around 7000 rpm as this engine is short stroke revving characteristics. Engine said to have dual overhead camshaft for precious and lightening revving capabilities to give race engine type capabilities. This bike have inherited many of its trait's from flagship EBR 1190 RX such as tall tail section.
HX 250's cost is said to have increase from 1.5 lakh to nearby 2 lakh territory. this make's this machine natural rival of RC 390 , Duke 390 , RC 200 and upcoming Honda CBR 250R .
