Hero Xtreme 125R
The newly launched variant sits in the middle as per its price goes (Rs 1,00,100) and it is too equipped with single channel ABS, all LED setup, and all the things you expect from the Xtreme 125R. This single seat does disturbs the sporty aesthetics of this sporty bike, but serves the larger purpose. As, both the rider and even pillion can comfortably sit and travel long miles, which becomes a little un-comforting in the split seat setup.
Moreover, Hero hasn't made any other changes, and it remains the same fantastic motorcycle. Here's some more information: it's powered by a 124.7 cc air-cooled, 4-stroke engine that produces 11.4 bhp and 10.5 Nm of torque. It can accelerate from 0 to 60 km/h in just 5.7 seconds. Additionally, the official site claims a mileage of 66 kmpl.
The LCD screen is present, but it lacks modern features like turn-by-turn navigation. The bike's lights are all LED. Lastly, customers can choose from three color options: Cobalt Blue, Firestorm Red, and Stallion Black.
Verdict
This variant is the second of the three available variants and is priced just Rs 2,000 less than the split-seat version with ABS. While this isn't a significant difference, considering that Hero has also launched the Glamour X at Rs 90,000 with more features, it's now a real competitor to the Xtreme 125R. Both bikes are priced similarly, but with the Glamour X, you're getting features that aren't even available on some 300cc bikes, like cruise control, ride-by-wire, and under-seat storage. The single-seat variant of the Xtreme 125R adds practicality, but now the competition is getting tougher.
