Author Message   2kx1 Posted on Thursday, January 23, 2014 - 04:55 pm:        Will EBR have something not 1190 powered by the end of the year? Anyone know,and will it be available before the Motus?   Hughlysses Posted on Thursday, January 23, 2014 - 07:51 pm:        According to the Indian press, Hero is coming out with a bike with an EBR-designed 250 cc engine shortly, and EBR will distribute Hero bikes in North America, so.... maybe.   2kx1 Posted on Saturday, January 25, 2014 - 04:13 am:        I am thinking it is going to be a middleweight.   Ourdee Posted on Saturday, January 25, 2014 - 07:33 pm:        Lars, You thinking 500 to 700?   Fast1075 Posted on Saturday, January 25, 2014 - 08:11 pm:        Supposedly the new Hero 250 will be shown mid February at the Dehli auto expo. For grins -n-giggles, I am thinking about going to what will be my "local" EBR dealer tomorrow and poke around some. Find out if the sales staff knows anything, or are clueless. I don't have a need for an RX. It, at my age would be a complete waste of equipment. BUT, I am highly interested in a shiny new sporty small displacement bike to supplement my EX-250. An EBR insider told me the new engine will have excellent power for the displacement.   Figorvonbuellingham Posted on Sunday, January 26, 2014 - 01:38 am:        It would be neat if they just made a single cylinder version of the 1190 and have 92.5 hp.   2kx1 Posted on Sunday, January 26, 2014 - 02:30 am:        I am thinking it is going to be the triple. 675-800cc.   Ourdee Posted on Sunday, January 26, 2014 - 11:50 pm:        I-3 or radial?   Hughlysses Posted on Monday, January 27, 2014 - 08:16 am:        ^ Lower-case "h" semi-opposed.   Court Posted on Monday, January 27, 2014 - 10:02 am:        Anyone recall how Paul Harvey used to open his program daily?   Ljm Posted on Monday, January 27, 2014 - 10:08 am:        Standing by.   Sparky Posted on Monday, January 27, 2014 - 03:44 pm:        Like this? quote: 'Hello, Americans,' he barked. 'This is Paul Harvey! Stand byyy for Newwws!'   2kx1 Posted on Monday, January 27, 2014 - 06:08 pm:        I don't know but there have been comments elsewhere that they aren't just working on twins.   Ourdee Posted on Monday, January 27, 2014 - 07:22 pm:        Erik has had a nice bit of time to sort out that 2 smoke racing bike he started. If anyone could get one past the EPA, it would be him. That would be sweet. OK, I'm standing by FOR NEWS.   Court Posted on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 - 10:02 am:        . . . . . .   Rde48 Posted on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 - 03:24 pm:        Someday Court may give use "The rest of the story" In times like these, it helps to recall that there have always been times like these. Paul Harvey   Bads1 Posted on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 - 03:31 pm:        Gooooood day!!   Ourdee Posted on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 - 04:31 pm:        I just found out that. The rotary engine uses plugs with different heat ranges depending on which hole they are in.   Hughlysses Posted on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 - 04:34 pm:        ^ Holy random post, Batman!   Ourdee Posted on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 - 06:55 pm:        Did you like that? ......   Firstbuell Posted on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 - 07:17 pm:        no   Ponti1 Posted on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 - 09:14 pm:        LOL   Doz Posted on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 - 09:30 pm:        I miss listening to Paul Harvey   Satori Posted on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 - 10:15 pm:        I'm betting that Courts count down ends on October 16th..   Hughlysses Posted on Wednesday, January 29, 2014 - 11:16 am:        Apparently, this is the new Hero 250 designed with EBR's help: Not bad! More info here: http://www.motorbeam.com/bikes/hero-motocorp/2014- hero-hx250r-specifications-price-pictures/   Fast1075 Posted on Wednesday, January 29, 2014 - 12:29 pm:        My 250 Ninja may have just become obsolete.   Hootowl Posted on Wednesday, January 29, 2014 - 02:20 pm:        ABS. Interesting.   Old_guy Posted on Wednesday, January 29, 2014 - 04:25 pm:        Expected price $2400. Probably without the optional ABS I can see my son all over that for his first bike.   Ourdee Posted on Thursday, January 30, 2014 - 04:33 pm:        2400 I may rock it.   Fast1075 Posted on Thursday, January 30, 2014 - 04:54 pm:        It even comes with decent tires. I have Sport Demons on the Mighty 250 Ninja. They work well.   Britchri10 Posted on Thursday, January 30, 2014 - 04:58 pm:        I'm 54 now. I see the ULY lasting until I'm 60 & then me having to give up on "big" bikes and move to something just like this. It certainly has an attraction IMHO. Chris C   Ourdee Posted on Friday, January 31, 2014 - 09:02 am:        I'm guessing the price to be $3000 to $4000. $2900 would be a crazy low price. I'm guessing that a complimentary range of motorcycles from HERO distributed through EBR dealers and an honest advertising (sustained media blitz) using all forms of media (mass marketing) with Hero's muscle to make it happen could be mind altering. I am imagining this with fully stocked showrooms and bikes in the pipeline. Now would be the time to be a dealer.   Ponti1 Posted on Friday, January 31, 2014 - 09:34 am:        REALLY nice looking 250, in my opinion! Perhaps it is just me, but reminds me of an Aprilia.   Fast1075 Posted on Friday, January 31, 2014 - 01:38 pm:        Unless someone beats me to it. I'll let you know how it runs.   Midknyte Posted on Friday, January 31, 2014 - 03:33 pm:        I'm wanting to see that in a Baracuda Yellow   Ezblast Posted on Friday, January 31, 2014 - 03:52 pm:        http://buellridersonline.com/forum/showthread.php? t=9197&p=67281#post67281 Speculation, because it is so over square is that a 350cc may also be in it's future. EZ   Figorvonbuellingham Posted on Friday, January 31, 2014 - 08:49 pm:        I've bought engines from India and the company I work for has started buying castings from there. The worst junk I have ever seen. They go for quantity not quality. I can see dealers selling these and so much being wrong with them that they just exchange a new bike everytime you take it in for warranty work. Hope EBR fairs well. I don't have any faith in India. Having said that, I have not purchased anything from hero. Just to be fair.
