Hero Xtreme 200S

Overview

The Xtreme 200S is Hero's only fully faired offering, borrowing most components from the Xtreme 200R naked street bike. While the motorcycle appears to be sporty, it provides a comfortable riding experience that is appropriate for daily commutes and short weekend rides.

Hero Xtreme 200S Design and Style

In the Indian market, the new Hero Xtreme 200S is essentially a faired version of the Xtreme 200R. The new Xtreme 200S completes the brand's X-lineup in the market, which includes the Xpulse 200, Xpulse 200T, and Xtreme 200R. The Xtreme 200S appears to be inspired by retro Japanese superbikes. It has a trapezoidal headlamp cluster with two triangular LED lights on either side of the central headlamp unit. The Xtreme 200S's side profile is simple in design. It has sharp lines. They have, however, been well integrated into the overall design of the motorcycle. A single 'Xtreme 200S' sticker is used to keep the look clean. Xtreme 200S has the same tail section as the 200R, as well as LED tail lights and split grab rails. The Xtreme 200S has a single seat and neutral handlebars and foot pegs. This allows the rider to maintain an upright posture while riding for long distances.

Hero Xtreme 200S Engine and Gearbox

The same 199.6cc air-cooled single-cylinder engine powers the new Hero Xtreme that debuted last year on the Xtreme 200R. It generates 17.83 HP at 8500 Revolutions per minute and 16.45 Nm at 6500 Revolutions per minute when coupled to a five-speed transmission. The engine on the Xtreme 200S remains smooth and refined, with linear power delivery. Even when the rev-meter is close to the red line, the engine vibrations are minimal. The gearbox is also smooth, with smooth gear shifts. The Xtreme 200S's 5-speed gearbox and gear ratios are better suited for city use than racing. It packs enough low-end and mid-range punch to get you through your daily commute. At higher speeds or revs, the engine seemed to work too hard, which means the bike will not impress you on long highway runs.
