A couple of days ago, we told you that Mahindra is re-designing its flagship motorcycle Mojo 300. A semi camouflaged test mule of the updated bike has been spotted recently in Pune, with some drastic changes in design. The bike has got a bigger fuel tank, which is looking more masculine. Seat of the bike gets some minor changes in front to match with the new fuel tank design. The new seat also gets a dual tone fabric.
We also told you that Mahindra is developing a new 300cc engine for Mojo, which was confirmed by Mr. Viren Popli, Executive Vice President, Mahindra Two Wheelers. "The Mojo when it was unveiled was just a concept. The masses were taken aback by the design but ever since then we at Mahindra Two Wheelers have been making multiple changes to the motorcycle. Our Pune plant is developing a special 300cc motor that is being greatly influenced by the MotoGP Mahindra Racing Team. The Bike still has a lot of progress and development to go through. The bike is still under rigorous testing but there is no definite time scale as to when we can have the bike displayed for the public," he said in an interaction with us.
Engine of the test mule is also looking different from the model showcased at the 2012 Indian Auto Expo. Previous engine of the bike was claimed to deliver 26bhp of maximum power and 25Nm of peak torque. However, the power output of the new engine might vary from that.
The updated model of the Mojo 300 roadster is looking better than the previous model, due to the cosmetic changes. It is expected that the company will bring this new model along with its new automatic scooter at the 2014 Indian Auto Expo.
This is all we have for now, stay tuned with us to get more updates on the upcoming Mahindra Two Wheelers.
