Hero Honda CBZ Xtreme Ends In New

It 'been many days when we heard of Hero Honda, in terms of new launches. Now we finally got one. Comes the new CBZ Xtreme. This 150cc bike did not suffer serious facelift since its inception. Probably should have been September Hero Honda has chosen this particular bike handled immediately facelift.

I want to emphasize the point here is that these improvements have been integrated into all major updates only cosmetic and nothing in the shape of things mechanical. But I think for good research this bike really needs an update at this point that his appearance was rather boring and regular. So I consider it a right to go to the bike right at the right time.

Well, now you get a little 'more deeply into the subject. First, notice the gauge console. New CBZ Xtreme has got the sexy Digital Meter analog console. The layout is very neat and looks for all the correspondences between the wheels of today. Fuel makes a small console looks even more amazing. The digital speedometer is backed with blue backlight.

The ignition switch now comes with a shutter, very similar to the Honda Activa and Suzuki Access. This step increases the security of the bike to some degree, really smart. There is also a slight change in the design of the projectors. Hero Honda has appointed leading diamond chandelier.

A notable change in the Xtreme is the fuel tank. It is now known as fuel tank anti-Go. In literal terms, side panels added to the fuel tank. The new five spoke alloy front and rear wheels is certainly one of the most attractive. Also, get both front and rear wheels are equipped with hard for users to experience a very efficient and accurate braking.

Xtreme has always been known for all the LED tail lamps. There is a small change to cover, too. It's called Shell Prism LED tail lights. It is a thin white curve, as shown in the center of the subscription. But change is still very visible.

I will talk non-stop party seats. I noticed that many users get their seats CBZ made divide. Now you have to go for a change because the new CBZ Xtreme comes as such, housing a sporty look cool. A small shoe, so the motor is also added to enhance the look. Heat Shield guards are added to the exhaust pipes.

In terms of performance, the engine remains intact. This is the air-cooled, 149.2cc engine ATFT movement produces a maximum power of 10.6KW @ 8500rpm and maximum torque @ 6500rpm of 12.8Nm. The rear suspension is now supported by setting the step 5 GRS (gas tank suspension), as in the case of Hunk. The diameters of the front and rear discs are 240 mm and 220 mm respectively. I say this now - Hero Honda Xtreme says it only has 5 seconds to hit 60 mph makes a zero position.

This wheel is available in a set of 5 exciting colors - Sport Red, Metallic Panther Black, Flaming Orange, Digital Silver Metallic and Max Brown. All new Xtreme is now at a price of EUR 68,942 (IS = Road, New Delhi), 72 247 INR (IS = Road, Mumbai), INR 68,975 (IS = Road, Chennai) and INR 68,405 (IS = Street, Kolkata). Xtreme comes with a package of services performed years/40000 3 km.


"I live on the edge" is the new slogan for this bike. With features and performance, as mentioned above, you can really dare to live the motto that we really want. Of course, with "Bike". No wonder!

Hero Honda CBZ Xtreme Review




I was very excited today morning because I was going to test drive the legendary Hero Honda CBZ Xtreme. On the first look, I was really astonished! The bike looked really cool! It was in fiery red colour and not many bikes in India have this colour.

The bike has very little resemblance to the old CBZ, the headlights got a completely new design. However this is a small disappointment to CBZ lovers because the new ones do not look as good as the old one and also looks a little small for a bike of this size. The first thing that one would notice in this bike is the indicator lights.

Both the back and front indicators merge with the main lights and it looks really nice and unique. The side part of the bike also got a significant face lift. The coloured body part connects as a single line from the tank to the tail lights and is very nicely contoured. Another feature which adds to its cool looks is the grip handle bars for the pillion rider… standing out as two individual horn like bars, it adds to the uniqueness of CBZ. Also the silencer is new and improved.

How does it perform?

When I took the bike for a test drive, the first thought that came up in my mind was ‘wow! this bike feels just like the Hero Honda Hunk’, then after checking the specifications, I noticed that both Hunk and CBZ have the exact same 149.2 cc Engine. So you can see Hero Honda Hunk Review for more information about performace of CBZ because both hae the same engine! The old CBZ had a 156 cc engine, but did not have the pickup and mileage as that of the present engine. Definitely Hero Honda has made some improvement in the engine for this new CBZ Xtreme. It is also claimed that this new model gives a better mileage than the old one, but I cannot be sure of that unless I hear from a real user of CBZ.

Features: The dash board has 3 dials, one for the speedometer, one for the rpm indicator and another for the fuel indicator… all of them descend in the order of the size… looks nice doesn’t it? The shock absorbers do not have the Gas shock absorber unit as it is advertised in Hunk and other bikes, but I would confidently say that it does not make the slightest difference in ride quality.

How does it stand out?

One of the biggest advantages that this bike has is the CBZ brand name. CBZ has been one of most passionate bikes for a very long time… the name alone is worth a price tag. CBZ was adopted from CBR, which is a very famous 600cc bike in foreign countries. The indicator lights and rear grip bars also make it unique because no other bike in the country has such a feature.

Hero Honda CBZ Xtreme comes in 5 great colours: Sports Red, Candy Blazing Red, Boon Silver Metallic, Black and Vibrant Blue Metallic.
