Latest Updates
Wednesday, 31 December 2008 04:58 PM In 2008, the Hero Honda CBZ Xtreme underwent significant cosmetic changes, including the addition of a lot of graphics and colored rear shockers. It also received a red colored alloy wheel at the rear, aiming to enhance its visual appeal. However, these changes did not significantly boost its sales. I think the excessive use of graphics might have been a turn-off for some buyers.
Monday, 15 October 2007 05:07 AM The CBZ Xtreme, launched in 2007, shared its engine with the Honda Unicorn, a 149cc unit, but it lacked the fun factor that the original CBZ was known for. Despite its refined engine, the bikes controversial styling did not resonate well with the masses. I believe the styling was a major misstep in trying to revive the CBZ legacy.
Saturday, 01 September 2007 01:50 AM After the launch of the CBZ Xtreme, Hero Honda updated the bike with clear lens indicators, a new tail lamp setup, and a part digital instrument cluster. These updates were aimed at modernizing the bike and complying with BS3 emission norms. I think these updates were necessary but not enough to regain the original CBZs popularity.
Friday, 01 June 2007 07:47 PM The CBZ Xtreme was introduced as a successor to the CBZ Star, which was discontinued due to poor sales. The new model had a completely new design and engine, differing significantly from the original CBZ. This change was an attempt to revamp the brand but ultimately failed to capture the same market enthusiasm. I think the brand name change confused many loyal CBZ fans.
Thursday, 15 March 2007 07:20 AM The CBZ Xtreme faced stiff competition from other 150cc bikes, particularly the Bajaj Pulsar twins, which offered better performance and fuel efficiency at a lower price. This competition significantly impacted the sales of the CBZ Xtreme. I believe the pricing strategy was a critical factor in its declining popularity.
Monday, 01 January 2007 01:00 AM Hero Honda emphasized the CBZ Xtremes advanced features, such as the Advanced Microprocessor Ignition System, which was first introduced in the Hero Honda Ambition 135. This technology was meant to enhance the bikes performance and efficiency. However, it did not translate into significant sales. I think the marketing could have been better to highlight these advancements.
Friday, 01 December 2006 09:11 AM The CBZ Xtreme was positioned as a commuter sports bike, targeting riders who wanted a balance between daily commuting and occasional spirited riding. Despite its capabilities, it failed to attract a large following. I believe the bikes identity crisis between being a commuter and a sports bike hurt its appeal.
Friday, 01 September 2006 08:37 AM The bike featured a 149cc engine, producing 12.8 HP and 12.4 Nm of torque, coupled with a 5-speed gearbox. This setup was similar to the Honda Unicorn and Hero Honda Achiever. The performance, though refined, was not as exciting as the original CBZ. I think the engine, while reliable, lacked the punch of its predecessor.
Thursday, 01 June 2006 06:50 PM The CBZ Xtreme had a tubular, single cradle frame and featured telescopic hydraulic forks at the front and a swing arm with dual hydraulic dampers at the rear. This suspension setup was designed for comfort and stability. However, it did not live up to the expectations of enthusiasts who missed the original CBZs handling. I believe the suspension could have been tuned better for sportier riding.
Wednesday, 01 March 2006 01:15 PM The launch of the CBZ Xtreme marked a significant departure from the original CBZ, both in terms of design and engine. The new bike had a more contemporary look but failed to evoke the same passion as its predecessor. I think the design changes alienated some of the loyal CBZ fan base.
