Hero Centennial Edition Motorcycle Is An Invitation Only Purchase
This bike is in honour of Dr. Brijmohan Lall Munjal's 101st birth anniversary and deliveries will start in September 2024
The Centennial Edition motorcycle will now be available to buyers but is strictly a limited edition along with only 100 units being made. This bike is in honour of Dr. Brijmohan Lall Munjal's 101st birth anniversary and deliveries will start in September 2024.
The company will auction these bikes to its employees, associates, business partners, and stakeholders. This bike was earlier shown at the Hero World event and features an aggressive design largely made from carbon fibre while it appears to have some changes over the example shown earlier.
Some of the details include a lightweight aluminium swingarm, machined, and anodised, including handlebars, handlebar mounts, triple clamps, and rear-set foot pegs plus a gas-charged, fully adjustable mono-shock from Wilbers and a 43-mm upside-down front suspension with damping adjustment.
Even the exhaust is a carbon fibre and titanium unit by Akrapovic along with being lightweight as well. It weighs 158kg and has a single seat carbon fibre seat cowl and milled aluminium special edition numbered badging on the side covers.
There is also a badge on the fuel tank which has Dr Brijmohan Lall Munjal's image.
The Centennial is based on the Karizma XMR and it is in fact lighter than that motorcycle with the materials used being the talking point.
The engine is the same 210cc single cylinder unit and has a 6-speed gearbox with no changes being done there although performance no doubt has improved. It is quite an exotic looking motorcycle and that is also true for its construction due to the lightweight materials.
It is surely a collector edition motorcycle and prices for this have also not been revealed yet.
