Expert's Opinion on Xtreme 160R
Overview

- The Hero Xtreme 160R 2V is the manufacturer’s first 160cc streetfighter
- It offers a great mix of sporty riding and everyday commuting
- While it’s not the most powerful bike in the segment, it’s well liked for its easy-going nature and nimble handling
- The Hero Xtreme 160R 2V was updated recently with a single piece seat with a flatter profile, sleeker tail-end, H-shaped taillight and new colour schemes
Design

- The large side panel than runs from the tank to the back makes the bike quite muscular
- The unique headlight design, upswept tail section and the overall sharp design lines give it a sporty vibe
- Build quality of the switchgear could have been better
- Indicator switch is placed too high making it a bit uncomfortable to use on a daily basis
Performance & Mileage

- The motor provides smooth and quick acceleration
- It has good mid-range performance, which makes as it fun bike when ridden in a spirited manner In our real world tests, the bike returned mileage figures of 55.47kmpl in the city and 47.38kmpl on the highway
- The streetfighter accelerated from 0-60kmph in 5.62 seconds during our real world tests
- Post 7,000rpm, vibrations can be felt at the footpegs and the handlebar
Handling

- The bike has very agile handling characteristics and tips into corners easily
- The light kerb weight of the bike also makes it easy to manoeuvre in the city or through twisty corners in the hills
- These factors make it easy to move in and out of traffic on the Xtreme 160R 2V
- The brakes offer really good stopping power and the feedback is good as well
- The bike’s straight line stability could’ve been better, and feels a bit shaky at high speeds
Ride Quality

- The suspension setup offers a plush ride quality on most surfaces
- It almost glides over smaller bumps and rough roads
- Over on really bad roads with large bumps and potholes, the shocks are transferred to the rider
Comfort & Storage

- The spaced out footpegs and upright handlebar make the bike comfortable for taller riders
- The not-so-tall seat height makes the bike accessible for shorter riders as well
- - The sharply curved rider’s seat translates to an uncomfortable experience during those long hours on the saddle
- The pillion seat is a bit tipped forward which can cause discomfort for some people
Features

- The all-LED lighting setup makes the bike feel premium
- The drag race timer on the instrument console is a nifty and unique feature
- The negatively-lid console doesn’t offer good visibility under harsh sunlight
- The absence of turn-by-turn navigation feels like a big miss
Verdict

- The Hero Xtreme 160R 2V offers a decent package of smooth performance, great handling capabilities, decent ride quality and an adequate list of features
- The bike is suitable for someone looking for a sporty 160cc bike with decent hardware and features at an affordable price range
- But by shelling out about Rs 27,000 more, one can opt for the 160R 4V, which offers superior performance, premium hardware and a much better features list
Xtreme 160R Pros and Cons
- Great ride and handling
- Sporty design
- Good and comfortable riding ergonomics
- Less mileage compared to other 160cc motorcycles
- Performance could have been better
- Offers nothing special to standout in the segment
The Xtreme 160R is one of the most exciting street fighters to come out of the company’s stables. It packs good styling, performance and dynamics to take on its competition. Although, there is the Xtreme 160R 4V that offers better performance and a more refined engine.
