By Ganesh

Hero MotorCorp is not done surprising us yet. Last week, the world's largest two wheeler manufacturer revealed the HX250R quarter liter sports bike and the RNT Concept diesel two wheeler. According to an ET report, the next big reveal that's being saved for the Expo is a 600cc naked motorcycle named Hastur.

Previewed only through this single image for now, Hastur clearly looks like a aggressive motorcycle that's influenced heavily by KTM Duke models. The sharp and edgy design, the bright yellow color, the underslung exhaust all resemble KTM's characteristics features.

"It has an aggressive street-fighter look. The big sporty tyres, performance suspension and the yellow coloured metal frame tubes make it look lean, nimble and powerful," one of the sources told ET.

At the same time, influences left by Hero's American technology partner Erik Buell Racing is also evident in the frame design and the dual front discs for instance.

ET says the Hero Hastur is intended for international markets, but could be made available in India as well.
