JUMBANGLA DESK : Hero Moto Corp is going to launch their new 250cc sports bike, which is believed to be the production version of the 2.5R Extent concept model that was showcased last year.

This new bike will fall under the adventure tourer category and may also serve as the naked version of the Karizma XMR 250. A design patent has been filed for the bike, which includes wide handlebars, low-slung headlamps, and a radiator with cowl. But it has no fairing. The fuel tank is quite muscular in design, and the rear is a bit slimmer.

The concept model does not use lighting components, but the production version may feature LED lights. The design patent includes a rectangular digital instrument cluster, which will display important information along with Bluetooth connectivity.

This adventure tourer bike from Hero will be powered by a 250cc, liquid cooled, single cylinder engine, but details about the engine output are not known yet. The bike will be built on a trellis frame and will have upside down front fork and rear monoshock suspension. Both the wheels will have disc brakes and a dual channel anti-lock braking system will also be offered. However, whether there will be switchable ABS, is yet to be confirmed.
