Expert's Opinion on Xtreme 250R

Overview

Fun, Fast And Affordable!

The Hero Xtreme 250R is a fun, fast and pretty affordable street naked motorcycle
The bike is promising as it offers decent features, good levels of performance and great handling characteristics

Design

A Proper Street Naked

The Hero Xtreme 250R has a very sporty design which will allow it to stand out
The low-slung headlight, wide tank extensions, tall fuel tank and sleek tail section come together quite well to make it a handsome motorcycle
The switchgear too feels good to use
It has minor quality issues such as inconsistent weld lines, and plastics which buzz at higher RPMs

Performance & Mileage

Peppy And Engaging

The 250cc motor i has a good low and mid-range grunt
30kmph in the 5th gear is stress-free and the bike picks up speed easily
On highways, 100kmph at 6,000rpm on the 6th gear feels smooth while having more than enough power to perform quick overtakes
The engine isn’t the most refined and the footpegs buzz slightly at 6,000rpm
Gearbox feels a little vague while shifting especially if you are wearing riding boots

Handling

A Charmer

The bike is really stable in a straight line at high speeds
Requires minimal effort on the bars to change directions
On winding roads, the bike feels completely at home and inspires a lot of confidence
It is stable through corners and even minor mid-corner bumps and undulations don’t seem to upset the bike at all
Brakes are powerful and allows the bike to shed speed quickly
Misses out on a front radial tyre which would have increased the handling characteristics even further
One will have to pull the brake lever hard to stop at the bike quickly as it lacks the initial bite

Ride Quality

Best Of Both Worlds

The bike handles mid-corner bumps and stays absolutely stable
While tackling bad roads, the ride feels firm, but it handles larger bumps and potholes quite well
It remains completely stable even after going through bumps and potholes
Wavy, concrete roads unsettle the bike and it keeps bobbing around and makes the ride unpleasant

Comfort & Storage

Surprisingly Good

The motorcycle is quite comfortable and easy to live with on an everyday basis
Riders above 5’7” can easily flatfoot the bike
The riding posture is upright though with a slight lean
The seat is long and spacious enough for the rider to move around
The pillion seat too is well padded with enough space for longer rides
With a wide mid-section, riders below 5’7” will tip-toe on the bike despite the 806mm seat height
The pillion seat can be a bit of a pain to climb on as it is set up quite high

Features

Could Have Been Better

Gets an LCD console which supports smartphone connectivity and has a lap & drag timer
Comes with dual-channel ABS with two ABS modes: Track and Road
The console is really cluttered and feels outdated
It is very hard to read under direct sunlight
The display is very hard to navigate through especially to change the ABS model

Verdict

Should you buy the Hero Xtreme 250R?

The Hero Xtreme 250R is a great all-rounder motorcycle which is calm in the city and is more than capable enough on the highways and around twisties
Despite having fewer features, it makes up for by providing a great riding experience, especially at the price it comes at
This makes the Xtreme 250R a great motorcycle for anyone who is looking to upgrade from a 150cc commuter motorcycle

Key Things to Know about Xtreme 250R

Upside

Great performance across the rev range
Quick and easy handling around corners
Most affordable 250cc bike in India
Looks really aggressive and unique

Downside

Tall and wide fuel tank can make flat-footing the bike difficult for shorter riders
Brakes could do with sharper initial bite
The LCD console feels cluttered and dated
