Hero Xtreme 160R vs Honda Shine 125

Question 1

Q. Which bike is good, Xtreme 160R or Pulsar NS 160?

Answer

Both the bikes are good in their forte. The Xtreme 160R is the most exciting motorcycle to come out of the stables of Hero MotoCorp in the recent past. It has the styling, performance, and dynamics to take on the competition. However, its pricing will be crucial to make an impact on the segment. Whereas, while the Bajaj Pulsar NS160 BS6 might not have many tangible features to justify the price hike due to BS6 norms, it more than makes up for it with raw performance. In fact, it is the most powerful motorcycle in its segment, making it ideal for enthusiasts who prioritise performance over anything else.

Question 5

Q. What is the difference between air cooled and oil cooled engine?

Answer

Not to worry, all are good until that engine don't get heated up

Answer

Difference is negligible

Answer

In the process of chemical energy into mechanical energy by burning fuel and air, the engine tends to get heated and thus requires cooling in order to perform smoothly. An air-cooled engine is designed with fins on the outside which increase the surface area of the motor, thus improving airflow around it. In essence, these fins create channels around the engine and use passing air as a natural coolant which helps dissipate heat generated from the cylinder. Now, in case of oil-cooling, the circulating oil is cooled by pumping it through a radiator-like cooler which uses air flowing through it to cool down the engine oil. The cooled oil is then sent back to the engine and the process repeats itself to maintain its operating temperature and viscosity. While a mid-to-high-power air-cooled engine does benefit from oil cooling, since the oil is not directly used to cool engine parts directly, it doesn’t really qualify as a cooling system per se - even if manufacturers like to say otherwise.

Question 6

Q. Is hero xtreme 160R suitable for Ladakh ride?

Answer

Why not, torque is good so, YES

Answer

Hero Xtreme 160R is the most exciting motorcycle to come out of the stables of Hero MotoCorp in the recent past. It has the styling, performance, and dynamics to take on the competition. However, the bike is best suitable for your daily city commutes and occasional long distance ride. You may take the Xtreme 160R for a ride to Laddakh, however, the journey would be cumbersome and you'll end up with feeling exhausted. There is a hint of sportiness in the riding stance as you have to lean forward slightly to get to the bars. But the overall experience is quite comfortable, thanks to the neutral footpegs and the large and roomy seat. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision.
