Just the fact that it's targeting the KTM 390 Adventure and Himalayan 450 has me leaning right in. A bike where Hero steps beyond its usual small-displacement strength into middleweight ADV. Repeated test-run sightings are proof release is near. Exactly where it'll strike on price and specs — just imagining it is nothing but fun.

It's reached a position where it gets called out by name as a rival, but how polished it actually is you won't know till you ride it.

Which is more popular right now, the KTM 390 Adventure S or the Himalayan 450?

Hero muscling into this class makes sense given the Xpulse series' track record.

Naming both the KTM 390 Adventure S and Himalayan 450 as targets shows just how serious Hero is.

Hero making a serious entry into the crowded mid-size ADV battleground just means more options, which is exciting.
