Bajaj Tackles CNG Tank Safety Issues in Freedom 125 CNG Bike
July 6, 2024

Bajaj has launched the Freedom 125 in India at a starting price of Rs 95,000. It is the world's first CNG bike, and many customers might worry about the safety of having a CNG tank on a bike. Every year, many CNG cars fail, and bikes are more exposed than cars. Bajaj assures that the bike has been thoroughly tested for safety. The manufacturer says the bike has passed 11 different crash and impact tests at their test facility.How Bajaj Tested the New Freedom 125 CNG Bike Bajaj tested the bike from different angles. In the Front Collision Test, the Freedom 125 CNG bike crashed into a 1.5-ton moving barrier at a speed of 60kmph. Moreover, the company also did a Truck Runover Test, where a 10-ton truck was driven over the CNG bike. This test simulates a situation where the rider falls off and the bike gets run over by a truck. In both the Front Collision Test and the Truck Runover Test, the bike handled the impacts well. The CNG tank stayed in place, kept its shape, and did not leak.Bajaj also performed nine other tests: a Frontal Pendulum Test, a Rear Impact Test, a Left Side Impact Test, a Right Side Impact Test, a Vertical Drop Test, a 50kg Filling Unit Strength Test, two types of CNG Valve Impact Tests (to see if the valve breaks on impact), and a 20G Pull Out Test. Impact tests involved hitting the bike with a moving barrier, while drop tests involved dropping the bike from a height.What is Bajaj Providing in Freedom 125 CNG Bike?Bajaj designed the trellis frame and subframe to keep the CNG cylinder safe. These frames act like cages to protect the cylinder from damage in a crash. The engine is also placed away from the CNG cylinder, so the heat from the engine doesn’t affect the CNG tank. This is important because the CNG tank holds pressurized gas, which can expand when it gets hot.When filling the CNG tank, you need to get off the bike and stand at least 5 feet away. This safety measure at CNG fuel stations helps prevent accidents in case the CNG cylinder explodes.Before you go, don’t forget to check out the June 2024 FADA two-wheeler sales report. Follow us for the Latest Bike Industry UpdatesFacebook - https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_offl_fb                 Instagram -  https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_ofl_insta                 Twitter - https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_ofl_twitter

Hero MotoCorp's Upcoming Lineup: 4 New Bikes Set to Launch in 2025
December 21, 2024

Over the next several months, Hero MotoCorp plans to launch four new bikes in the Indian market. At the EICMA 2024 last month in Italy, the domestic bike manufacturer debuted four new models. The Xpulse 210, Xtreme 250R, Karizma XMR 250, and the Mavrick 440 facelift.  4 Upcoming Hero Bikes in IndiaAs previously stated, all of these motorcycles are anticipated to make their Indian public debuts. This will take place during the Bharat Mobility Global Expo, which begins in New Delhi on January 17. Let's examine each of the four Hero motorcycles that will be available in India in 2025 in depth. Hero Mavrick  440At the EICMA 2024 in Milan, Hero MotoCorp unveiled the upgraded Mavrick 440. In January 2025, it is anticipated to debut at the Bharat Mobility Expo. Compared to the present model, the 2025 Mavrick 440 has a number of visual improvements. It has new paint options and USD front suspension in a golden tint, both of which are absent from the current model. Furthermore, a new TFT console that was taken from the Harley-Davidson X440 replaces the LCD instrument cluster of the current model. The entire kerb weight of the new bike has decreased by 2 kg, and it now weighs 189 kg. In terms of mechanics, the 2025 Hero Mavrick 440 will still be propelled by the same 440cc air-cooled petrol engine and 6-speed gearbox. Hero Xpulse 210To say that Hero's Xpulse 210 is the most anticipated motorcycle in India would appear to be an understatement. It is anticipated to take the place of the Xpulse 200. It has a 210cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that can produce up to 24.6 bhp and 20.7 Nm of torque and mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The Hero Xpulse 210 has tubed tyres and spoke wheels that are 21 inches in front and 18 inches in back. Among the Xpulse 210's noteworthy features are dual-channel ABS, a 4.2-inch TFT instrument panel, all-LED lighting, and smartphone Bluetooth connectivity. A mono-shock unit at the back and telescopic forks at the front will handle the suspension tasks. In the first quarter of 2025, it will be available for purchase in India. Hero Xtreme 250RThe brand-new naked streetfighter “Hero Xtreme 250R” will be Hero's first motorbike in the 250cc class. Firstly, it is displayed at EICMA 2024. At the core of the bike is a brand-new 250cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that can produce up to 30 bhp at 9,250 rpm and 25 Nm of torque at 7,250 rpm. The motorbike can go from 0 to 60 kmph in only 3.25 seconds due to its 6-speed gearbox and powerful engine. The Hero Xtreme 250R is built on a steel trellis frame and will include a number of features. Just like the dual-tone colour options, switchable ABS, disc brakes on both wheels and LED headlamps with DRL. In the Indian market, the KTM 250 Duke and the Husqvarna Vitpilen 250 will compete against the Xtreme 250R. Hero Karizma XMR 250Finally, last month at the EICMA 2024, the Hero Karizma XMR 250 made its premiere on a worldwide scale. When it debuts in India in the second half of 2025, the fully-faired bike will be a direct competitor of the Suzuki Gixxer 250. Along with a 6-speed transmission, it will use the same engine as the Xtreme 250R, which has the same power and torque numbers. The height-adjustable clip-on handlebar unit is the Karizma XMR 250's main attraction. Other noteworthy features include the integrated starting switch, dual-channel ABS, full-LED lighting, and TFT instrument dashboard. Before you go, check out the The All-New 2025 Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX Launched in IndiaFollow us for the Latest Bike Industry UpdatesFacebook - https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_offl_fbInstagram-  https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_ofl_instaTwitter - https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_ofl_twitter

December 21, 2024

With the expansion of the 650cc portfolio, Royal Enfield is expected to hit its full potential in 2025. If you felt that Royal Enfield had a busy year in 2024, be ready for a big change in the next year. There will be four 650cc bikes released by the famous two-wheeler manufacturer, including three new models and an upgraded version. All the information you want about the upcoming models is provided here. List of Soon To Be Launched Royal Enfield 650 cc BikesCurrently, Royal Enfield has five 650cc bikes in its lineup. It includes the Interceptor 650, Continental GT 650, Super Meteor 650, Shotgun 650, and Bear 650. All of these, old and new, will be powered by the same 648cc parallel-twin engine. Here’s a sneak peek at the upcoming models. Royal Enfield Classic 650By launching the Classic 650, the most powerful model, Royal Enfield will expand the Classic line. The Classic 650 will be offered as a single-seater with an extra pillion seat, keeping its vintage appearance. The Classic 650 was first introduced by Royal Enfield to the European market during EICMA 2024 in Milan. It was then displayed at Motoverse 2024 in Goa. January 2025 is anticipated to see the launch of the new 650cc motorbike. In addition to spoked wheels, dual exhausts, dual-channel ABS, a Tripper navigation pod, adjustable clutch and brake levers and LED lighting. Moreover, the motorbike may have 43 mm Showa front suspensions with twin coils at the back. There will be four colour options: Bruntingthrope Blue, Vallum Red, Black Chrome, and Teal. Royal Enfield Bullet 650When the Bullet 650 was being tested, it was seen on Indian roads several times. The Shotgun 650 and Super Meteor 650 have the same frame, and they will be introduced in India by the middle of 2025. The general design is influenced by the Bullet 350 and the Classic 650, which still need to be released.  Alloy wheels are not anticipated to be an option for the Royal Enfield Bullet 650; wire-spoke wheels will be used. With a 6-speed gearbox, the bike will be driven by the same reliable 648cc twin-cylinder engine. Royal Enfield Himalayan 650The Royal Enfield Himalayan 650, which is internally designated "R2G," is perhaps the brand's largest 2025 launch. It will premiere in India during the October–November holiday season of 2025. Furthermore, the will be based on the Interceptor's trellis frame. Several features were visible in the spy photos, including spoked wheels, a split seat, USD front forks, and a side-swept exhaust pipe. However, it will have the same 648cc parallel-twin engine. The stylistic inspirations are probably taken from the Himalayan 450. According to rumours, when the Himalayan 650 is introduced in the nation, it will be the priciest Royal Enfield motorcycle. Royal Enfield Interceptor 650The Interceptor 650, which was spied on during testing, is getting an upgrade from Royal Enfield. The motorbike needs a significant overhaul to remain competitive because it has been around for so long. A number of new features and stylistic adjustments will be included with the 2025 Interceptor. The 648cc engine will remain the same, but the spy photos also showed a new suspension system and braking units. Before you go, check out the Hero Destini 125 LX Variant Leaked Before Launch: What to Expect!Follow us for the Latest Bike Industry UpdatesFacebook - https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_offl_fbInstagram-  https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_ofl_instaTwitter - https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_ofl_twitter
