Review About Power and Handling

The Hero Xtreme 250R feels fast on open roads. The 249 cc engine pulls strong and clean. The riding position feels sporty but still comfortable. The brakes feel sharp and the suspension holds well in turns. It is a nice choice for riders who want power with control.

Refined and Sporty

I bought the Hero Xtreme 250R for its power and comfort. The engine pulls strongly on highways, and the seating position is perfect for long rides. Mileage is not as high as a commuter, but it’s fair for a 250cc bike. Suspension of the bike is equipped with an upside-down front fork, and the rear comes with a gas-charged mono shock that is adjustable.

Reliable Ride, Sporty Feel

I bought the Hero Xtreme 250R for my cousin’s daily travel to work. The 249cc engine of the 250R delivers strong pick-up, and the bike stays steady in traffic. He says handling feels light, especially while taking turns or filtering through city roads. The fuel efficiency is decent too, giving close to 44-45 kmpl with regular use.
