Hero teases small adventure bike

Hero MotoCorp has released a teaser image of its upcoming small adventure bike. The bike is expected to be unveiled the 2017 EICMA motorcycle show in Milan, Italy.

The blurry teaser image shared by the bike maker doesn’t reveal much. However, the proportions of the new bike seem similar to those of the erstwhile Hero Impulse. The riding position appears to have been designed with off-road riding in mind with an off-road-spec front fender and raised ride height. The bike has a telescopic fork suspension at the front with a noticeably larger front wheel, a monoshock suspension setup at the rear and disc brakes at both ends. The suspensions appear to have a longer travel than those on road bikes.

Media speculations suggest that a 200cc engine is likely to be used to power the bike. However, there is no official word about the same from Hero MotoCorp yet.
