TheHX 250 R is easily among the most highly anticipated models in Indian two wheelers market today. The HX 250R launch could happen as soon as next month and this model is looking all set to become the most power production-spec Hero motorcycle ever. The upcoming Hero flagship, in all probability, will also become a logical upgrade from the Karizma. Powered by a single-cylinder, fuel injected engine displacing almost 250cc, the upcoming bike has a maximum power of around 31 bhp, which would make the HX 250R significantly more powerful than the Honda CBR250R.
