      Hero Classic 350 Rival Launch, Media Drive Dates Revealed – Hurikan 440 Name Final?

      by

      X440 test mule that could be Hero’s Hurikan 440Given the VFM identity that Hero MotoCorp has, we can expect the new Hero Classic 350 rival to be priced around Rs. 2 lakh (ex-sh)Royal Enfield seems to have hit the ball out of the park with Classic 350. The motorcycle has proved to be a phenomenon among Indian buyers. In November 2023, RE sold 30K+ Classic 350 in India. That’s a sizeable chunk. A chunk that India’s biggest 2W manufacturer, Hero MotoCorp, is eyeing with a new 440cc bike.Hero Classic 350 Rival Launch Soon?Joining the long line of Classic 350 rivals is Hero MotoCorp. The line consists of Jawa and Yezdi motorcycles, Honda CB350 lineup, Harley-Davidson X440 and Triumph Speed 400. Hero’s new Classic 350 rival will share the same 440cc platform that was co-developed with Harley-Davidson and seen on X440.There may be a small difference in engine tuning to place Harley-Davidson X440 as the more premium and performant machine than Hero’s offering. This should allow Hero MotoCorp to undercut X440 and most of its rivals by a large margin. Hero’s production capacity is among the largest in the world and with that, the company might establish an aggressive price point.Considering X440 is already a retro-style motorcycle, we expect Hero to position its motorcycle slightly differently. We’re talking about slightly toned-down design attributes and fancy finishes for sheet metal. Probably cut down on a few features too. The name Hurikan 440 was recently trademarked by Hero MotoCorp and has a good chance of ending up on its Classic 350 rival.Hero Classic 350 Rival Media DriveHurikan 440 Name Final?In yesterday’s post, we covered upcoming Hero MotoCorp motorcycle based on Harley-Davidson X440 and how it can be a Classic 350 rival. In the post, we mentioned launch date as January 22nd. The recent media invites sent by the company suggest media drive events to be held between 15th and 16th February.Considering Karizma XMR 210 costs Rs. 1.8 lakh (ex-sh), we can speculate Hero Hurikan 440 (name not confirmed) to be priced at around Rs. 2 lakh (ex-sh). In comparison, Harley-Davidson X440 costs Rs. 2,39,500 (ex-sh) for base Denim variant and goes till Rs. 2,79,500 for S variant with alloy wheels and connectivity suite.Performance metrics of Hero Hurikan 440 might be slightly lower than that of Harley-Davidson X440. For context, X440 has 27 bhp of peak power and 38 Nm of peak torque. Hurikan 440 will continue to get a 6-speed transmission with different gearing than X440. Hero’s biggest motorcycle will feature dual-channel ABS.Other areas for (potential) cost-cutting for Hero Hurikan 440 are less sophisticated front suspension setup as opposed to X440’s 43mm KYB USD telescopic front forks. Wheels on Hurikan 440 might not feature any dual-tone effect and wear skinnier rubber too when compared to X440. Hero is expected to play VFM card and establish an attractive price point with its flagship product. More

      Hero Teased New 440cc Bike – Roadster? Bigger Xpulse 440?

      by

      X440 test mule that could be Hero’s Classic 350 rivalIf it is a RE Classic 350 rival, Hero’s new 440cc motorcycle might be priced aggressively and under rival’s pricing to significant extentIndia’s largest motorcycle manufacturer, Hero MotoCorp, is strengthening its position in premium motorcycle space in the Asian subcontinent. As of now, this 2W behemoth is Primarily known for its budget commuters. The company’s biggest 440cc motorcycle is launching on 22nd January 2024, as teased by the company.Hero Teased New 440cc Bike – Name starts with an R?Partnership with Harley-Davidson is spawning a 440cc motorcycle for Hero, as teased by the company recently. As per the teaser, we might be looking at the same 440cc platform jointly developed by Hero MotoCorp and Harley-Davidson. In the soundtrack of this teaser was a bassy exhaust note.In this teaser, Hero MotoCorp is highlighting the letter ‘R’. This could be a clear indication that the name of Hero’s upcoming 440cc motorcycle might start with R. The question, however, is what kind of a motorcycle is Hero MotoCorp cooking? There are a few possibilities.Is this a Classic 350 rivaling Retro motorcycle?If we look at test mules that revolve around Hero’s research centre in Jaipur, we can see a few Harley-Davidson X440 test mules that may be testing a new set of accessories for X440 like rear pillion backrest. Thst said, we have also reported surprising X440 test mules with heavy camouflage and without accessories after Harley-Davidson X440 launched it in India.Hero Teased New 440cc BikePrimary speculations point towards a badge-engineered X440 under Hero’s name to take a dig at ever-popular Royal Enfield Classic 350. Considering sales potential, this is among the logical possibilities too. Badge engineering is common practice and bike makers like BMW and TVS are at it too.Positioning as a power cruiser or power roadster with retro looks, Hero could cut down on a few premium finishes and features from X440 to create a Classic 350 rival under Hero brand and price it aggressively. We’re talking about Rs. 2 lakh (ex-sh) price point. It would be a tempting proposition.210cc Xpulse and Xtreme?Other possibilities include the launch of 210cc versions of current Xpulse 200 and Xtreme 160R, based on 210cc liquid-cooled DOHC 4V engine from Karizma XMR 210. The R name that Hero MotoCorp is highlighting might denote Xtreme 210R. There may be design inspirations from Hero 2.5R XTUNT Concept motorcycle recently unveiled at 2023 EICMA.Hero Xtreme 210 and Xpulse 210 spotted testingIs it Xpulse 440 with a new name?Other set of test mules spotted around Jaipur is Xpulse 440. This is Hero’s big-capacity ADV motorcycle that will take on the likes of Royal Enfield New Himalayan, Triumph Scrambler 400X, KTM 390 Adventure and the likes. The company has been testing this upcoming Xpulse in high-altitude areas around Ladakh and Himalayas since 2022.There might be a new motorcycle in its entirety. Whose test mules never caught any prying eyes of Indian automotive enthusiasts. Something like TVS pulled out with Raider 125 launch. More info revolving around this motorcycle might surface in the coming days.Source More

      Bajaj Pulsar 500 Twinner Cafe Racer Rendered – Name Trademarked

      by

      Bajaj Pulsar 500 Twinner RenderA close to 500cc twin-cylinder engine on Bajaj Pulsar 500 Twinner could develop around 60 bhp of peak power and 50 Nm of peak torqueBajaj Auto has been one of the leading forces in India’s commuter and street motorcycles segments. These single-cylinder engines range between 100cc and 373cc and are doing duties across multiple sub-brands. But what would a twin-cylinder from Bajaj be like? Does this relate to Bajaj’s Twinner registered trademark?Bajaj Twinner 500 Cafe Racer RenderedRendering artist Pratyush Rout has penned down his imagination and expressed what Bajaj’s first twin-cylinder motorcycle might look like. For obvious reasons, there is a high probability of it falling under the Pulsar umbrella for maximum appeal. So, he created a street naked neo-retro Cafe Racer style Bajaj Pulsar 500 Twinner.Bajaj Twinner Trademark FiledBajaj and Pulsar fans would expect a powertrain upgrade from their preferred OEM in the form of a twin-cylinder engine. Especially looking at how much commercial success Royal Enfield has seen with its parallel-twin 650 platform. Bajaj and KTM had intentions of jointly developing a 490cc parallel-twin platform in 2020.Bajaj’s trademarked Twinner name is a fitting choice for a product like this. Considering this is around 500cc in displacement, one could speculate that Bajaj-KTM has gone with joining two 250cc engines together and developing a sophisticated setup around it. That might be the case too as it is among the standard practices in the industry.Bajaj Pulsar 500 Twinner RenderThe wordmark Twinner that Bajaj has trademarked, is not associated with any prefix or suffixes. This could mean that Bajaj will use Twinner name along with existing sub-brands like Pulsar. In effect, the word Twinner would only denote its engine architecture. For example, Bajaj Pulsar 500 Twinner, might be a name in the future where Twinner is used to denote the new engine.Bajaj Pulsar 500 Twinner RenderUnique blend of design from multiple motorcycle genresFor design, Pratyush Rout has gone with an amalgamation of Pulsar’s muscular approach and blended it with classic motorcycle elements like round headlights. Something first-ever Pulsar had. There is a stepped rear seat like that of a super sport machine too, creating a unique blend of elements from multiple motorcycle genres.Fuel tank is all new, donning the Pulsar 3D badge and subtle changes compared to Dominar 400. The changes are in-keeping with Bajaj’s design trends. The perimeter frame is retained and it proudly displays the Twinner badge. Subframe is a lot sportier and the tail section is now much tidier. Wheels, braking setup and exhaust system are retained from the current Dominar 400.Bajaj Pulsar 500 Twinner RenderHeadlights are round and grab attention along with paying tribute to motorcycles of the past. Twin circular pods for the instrument cluster look classy as well. USD front telescopic forks are finished in gold and petal disc brakes at the front get Nissin calipers. If launched, Pulsar 500 Twinner will be the biggest Pulsar ever. Sidelining the soon-to-be-launched 400cc single-cylinder Pulsar.Powertrain is the key highlightFor Bajaj Pulsar 500 Twinner, the perimeter frame will be tweaked slightly to accommodate the wider engine. Considering around 500cc displacement, we may expect around 60 bhp of peak power and 50Nm of peak torque. This engine will get many modern hardware like 4V head, DOHC setup, liquid cooling, quick-shifter, throttle-by-wire, slipper clutch and more.Bajaj Pulsar 500 Twinner Render More

      by

      Aprilia RS 457Among the 28 of Aprilia RS 457 accessories listed, there are racing and touring oriented add-ons to establish sports-tourer characterThe Italian marque has made a grand entry in fully-faired multi-cylinder motorcycle segment in India with RS 457. This is a delicious baby supersports motorcycle with a design semblance to RS 660. Launched at Rs. 4.1 lakh (ex-sh), it is a tempting proposition as well for prospective buyers. Now, the company has revealed official accessories list too.Aprilia RS 457 Accessories List RevealedEarlier this month, Aprilia launched RS 457 in India at 10th anniversary of IBW held at Vagator, Goa.

These accessories include an electronic antitheft, front brake lever protection, assembly system for electronic anti-theft, internal bike cover, external bike cover, helmet lock, USB charging, high windscreen, heel guard and front axle protector.The list seen on official brochure feels slightly lighter than what Aprilia is offering. We say this because Aprilia had promised a bi-directional quick-shifter as an accessory too, which is missing in the brochure. Apriliaridersclubbengaluru Instagram page has posted a list of official accessories (claimed) containing quite a bit more than what Aprilia has listed on the brochure.Aprilia RS 457 Accessories listed by Apriliaridersclubbengaluru Instagram PageThis snippet may be a part of Aprilia’s blurb and contains 28 accessories, which is 18 more than the ones listed on Aprili RS 457 accessories list on brochure.

      PUC Certificates Now Require Video Verification – Full Details Here

      by

      PUC Certificates Video Verification Now Mandatory – Image for reference onlyAs opposed to a single number plate image requirement, the new regulations in PUC certificates issuance require video verification of testing procedureIn a commendable move, Indian Government has mandated video verification of emission testing process across the nation to ensure transparency in the process. This will keep fraudulent operations by PUC centres in check and ensure unfit vehicles show correct emissions value in their PUC certificates for further enforcement.PUC Certificates Now Require Video VerificationIncorrect emission data in PUC certificates is a common phenomenon in India. Owners of old and polluting vehicles often get PUC certificates that are galactically far from reality. This is achieved by malpractices of authorised PUC centres where the emission values tested, are of an entirely different vehicle altogether.This would give a pass for unfit vehicles to meet emission standards and be used on public roads. Now, Indian Government is dropping an anchor on this malpractice by mandating video verification of vehicles in said authorised PUC centres.All 2W and 4W vehicles should now undergo proper emission testing under a watchful eye. National Informatics Center (NIC), is tasked with implementation of these changes. This is a major reform in enforcing vehicular emission control measures by Indian Government.PUC certificate is only granted to vehicles that pass rigorous exhaust gas testing and comply with Motor Vehicles Act regulations. Authorised PUC centres now need to record the entire testing process and upload it to VAHAN portal (managed by Ministry of Road Transport and Highways).Before implementing these stricter regulations, PUC centres needed to only upload the number plate of said vehicle on the portal. This picture could have been provided by owner even though said vehicle was not physically present at testing centre or rightfully tested.New regulations applicable to both 2W and 4W vehiclesNecessary modifications will be made to VAHAN portal by NIC to allow PUC centre operators to upload video of testing process of vehicles. This will establish a significant increase in transparency and legitimacy for the whole process. Vehicles with significant emissions will not be issued with fraudulent PUCs from this new regulation.All the Governments of various States and UTs are expected to adopt and implement these new regulations ASAP. This measure would significantly benefit places like Delhi-NCR, where pollution levels are among the highest in the entire Asian subcontinent and rising by the day.There don’t seem to be any changes to the nominal price of a PUC certificate and associated testing. Also, validity of said PUC certificate is still 6 months, over which the vehicle has to be re-tested and issued with a fresh PUC. More
