Hero Dawn 125cc motorcycle spotted

Hero MotoCorp is planning to launch an all-new 125cc bike, based on the entry-level Hero HF Dawn commuter bike, and is expected to be called the Hero Dawn 125.

Spy shots of the Hero Dawn 125 have emerged and reveal that the new 125cc motorcycle from Hero MotoCorp will be a basic utilitarian commuter bike targeted at rural and semi-urban markets.

The Hero Dawn 125 has a simple and basic design like the 100cc Dawn but borrows some components from the Hero Glamour 125 as well. The basic round headlight is the same as seen on the 100cc Dawn, covered with a large cowl. But the fuel tank may get a new design and graphics and is highly camouflaged on the bike seen on the spy shot.

The instrument panel is a simple two-pod set up with a speedometer on one side and a fuel gauge with tell tale lights on the other. The name Dawn 125 is clearly seen on the right pod.

Spoked wheels are used to tackle rough terrain, and simple indicators and switchgear are used to keep costs low. Harking to its utilitarian pedigree, the bike features a heavy duty luggage carrier at the rear and also at the sides, which double up as footrests for a pillion rider.

The Hero Dawn 125 is expected to be powered by the same single-cylinder, air-cooled 124.7cc engine that powers the Glamour 125. That engine makes 9.1PS of power and 10.35Nm of torque on the Glamour 125. Hero MotorCorp may be looking at re-tuning the same engine for better low end torque and better fuel economy figures. Expect the bike to be priced very competitively and launched later this year.
