THE CAFE RACER CONCEPT BASED ON THE XPULSE 200T WAS AN ATTEMPT TO SHOW THE VERSATILITY OF THE PLATFORM THE CONCEPT OPENS NEW POSSIBILITIES TO HOW OEM’S CAN PROVIDE THEIR CUSTOMERS WITH CUSTOMIZED/PERSONALIZED MOTORCYCLES TO HIT THE RIGHT NERVES WITH MOTORCYCLING BEING CONSIDERED A HIGHLY PERSONAL AFFAIR IT SHOULD NOT COME AS A SURPRISE IF MORE OEM’S JUMP INTO THE CUSTOM-PRODUCTION RACE...
TRIKEMMXL PERSONAL PROJECT
THE WORLD IS MOVING TOWARDS ELECTRIC TRANSPORTATION
HOWEVER, THE SAME FOR PERSONAL MOBILITY GETS UNECONOMICAL BECAUSE OF EXPENSIVE EFFICIENT BATTERIES AND THEIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
UNTIL THESE EXPENSES GO DOWN TO BE AFFORDABLE FOR THE COMMON PERSON WE NEED OTHER ALTERNATE-FUEL PERSONAL TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS
THECONCEPT
PEOPLE IN CITIES HAVE MOVED TO VERTICAL GARDENING DUE TO LACK OF SPACE SOON THEY WILL USE THIS IDEA TO GROW THEIR OWN FOOD IN THE BALCONIES SO WHAT WOULD BE THE NEXT BIG CHANGE???
WHAT IF PEOPLE START GROWING THEIR OWN FUEL??? GROW CROPS IN THEIR VERTICAL GARDENS, FERMENT THEM IN IN-HOUSE FERMENTERS & USE THE ALCOHOL PRODUCED, AS FUEL FOR THEIR VEHICLES...
THIS CAN BE AN ALTERNATIVE FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES TILL THEY TURN ECONOMIC & EFFICIENT!!!

EXPLORER
BEING THE VERY FIRST NEO-CLASSIC ENDURO FROM THE HERO STABLE, A COMPLETELY NEW COLOR & GRAPHIC SCHEME- DIFFERENT FROM THE TRADITIONAL PALETTE WAS TO BE THOUGHT OF
EXPLORER THEME WAS THE MOST SUITABLE, PORTRAYING THE MACHINE’S ON & OFF CAPABILITY.
WITH A VIEW TO MAKE A BOLD STATEMENT WITH THE RE-LAUNCH OF A STAR & SO THE GRAPHIC THEME WAS AS WILD & FLAMBOYANT AS THE BRAND ITSELF. WITH XTREME WRITTEN IN BIG CHUNKY SOLID LETTERS, THE BIKE ANCHORED IT’S PUNCHLINE OF “FEAR NOTHING”
