The Rise of Streetfighters: Why the Xtreme 160R 4V is Built for the Bold

There is a reason why we ride. It is not just about getting somewhere—it is about the feeling. That first crack of the throttle in the morning, the way the city blurs past as you weave through traffic, the quiet thrill of an open road at night.

A motorcycle is a part of who we are. And if you are the kind of rider who thrives on agility, speed, and a raw, unfiltered connection with the road, you are already one of us.

At Hero MotoCorp, we built the Xtreme 160R 4V for riders who do not just blend into the background. It is aggressive, it is sharp, and it is designed to own the streets. Every detail—from its muscular stance to its lightning-quick acceleration—exists for one reason: to make every ride feel alive. This is not just a streetfighter. This is your statement.

The Evolution of Streetfighters

The term "streetfighter" originated in the late 1980s when riders began customising sportbikes that had been damaged in accidents.

By removing damaged fairings and opting for upright handlebars, they transformed these machines into aggressive, naked bikes optimised for urban environments. This trend quickly gained traction, leading manufacturers to design factory-built streetfighters that combined performance with minimalist styling.

The Xtreme 160R 4V is our answer from Hero MotoCorp to the modern rider's quest for a motorcycle that embodies boldness, performance, and efficiency. This machine is a statement of intent for those who navigate the urban jungle with confidence.

Design and Styling

From the moment you lay eyes on the Xtreme 160R 4V, its aggressive stance and sharp lines command attention. The new Kevlar Brown colour option adds a touch of sophistication, ensuring you stand out even before the ride begins. The LED headlamp with position lamp and the newly designed LED tail lamp not only increase visibility but also contribute to the bike's modern aesthetic.

Understanding the importance of rider and pillion comfort, the Xtreme 160R 4V boasts a newly designed, more comfortable pillion seat. The seat height of 795 mm ensures accessibility for riders of varying heights, and the upright riding posture reduces fatigue during longer rides. The wide radial rear tyre (130/70 R17) not only improves grip but also adds to the overall stability of the motorcycle.
