Recently Asked User Questions

Q. I am planning to buy the XPulse 200. I am confused between carburetor and FI- which one would be easier to maintain in the long run? Also, I have read reports of the rust issue of the wheel and rim, has this been resolved?
  • Xpulse carb is more better than fi.but you want more refinement and mileage go for xpulse fi.both segment make for long riding distance. after a long time rust issues but it's can be resolved.
  • For better mileage go for Fi, for less maintenance go for carb edition, rusting issue is not seen on every bike, even though if you face the issue the hero moto corp is replacing the rusted parts with new one......
  • Is there any sound comming from engine side in BS6 model
Q. What is the different between Hero Moto Corp XPulse 200 BS4 and BS6
  • There are few differences which all together make the motorcycle feel slightly different while riding. Addition of cat-conThe exhaust pipe placement has been changed to accommodate the cat-con, addition of cat con also results in a slight power drop, this has drastically changed the way the engine performs. Reduced vibes, linear power delivery and better mileage I suppose.Addition of oil cooler.For now this is all that has changed in the bs6 xpulse. If you have ridden the bs4 motorcycle you’ll definitely feel the difference in the engine performance.
  • The major change your n BS6 variant is now this bike comes with oil cooled engine at place of air cool engine is BS4. I have BS4 variant and I feel the hot engine without oil cool engine. Can Hero add oil cooler to my BS4 xpulse 200.
  • Difference between BS-IV and BS-VI fuel and vehicles primarily is the significant lower content of sulphur. The sulphur content on both petrol and diesel will come down to 10ppm in BS-VI fuel as compared to 50 ppm in BS-IV fuel

    Hero XPulse 200 4V Adventure Commuter 

    The Hero XPulse 200 4V is my top pick for a enterprising diurnal commute. The tough looks and strong best experience of my bike make me love it. Owing to its strong machine and sharp running, riding it on off- road rows and through city Streets is a veritably thrilling experience. Off- road features and an adventure- inspired performance guarantee a head- turning presence on the road. Its useful features, such the LED construction and long- trip suspense, give the ride more luxury and confidence, and I like that. My love for my bike only deepens as a result of its higher rigidity and go- anywhere station. hero XPulse 200 4V is an audacious accompaniment that lets my explore new places with confidence and faculty. It's More than exclusively a ride.

    my top most suggestion 

    I love exploring, so this bike is made for me .This is an adventure bike, so it's built for exploring. Its mileage is decent, providing good fuel efficiency for long rides. In the city, you can get around 37 kmpl, and on the highway, expect 36 kmpl or more. In terms of performance, the engine delivers ample power and torque, giving riders a thrilling experience both on and off-road. The engine vibes a bit at higher speeds, and wind protection is minimal.

    End torque 

    Here are my thoughts on the upcoming royal enfield himalayan 450 motorcycle: overall features and stylingfrom what i've seen so far, The himalayan 450 retains the rugged, Adventurous styling of the current himalayan 411 but with some nice upgrades.The exposed frame and off-road oriented design are still there, But the 450 adds some sharper lines and a more muscular fuel tank for a modern look.Some key features include switchable abs, A tripper navigation pod, And an lcd display with turn-by-turn navigation.These are great features for an adventure touring bike.The styling strikes a good balance between rugged and refined.Expectationsi'm expecting the 450cc engine to provide a noticeable power bump over the 411cc motor in the current himalayan - perhaps around 30hp.This should make cruising at highway speeds more relaxed while still delivering excellent low-end torque for off-road riding.The weight is also reportedly lower, Which should improve handling.Overall, The 450 looks like a nicely improved evolution of the proven himalayan platform.My expectations are high for a more powerful, Lighter and feature-rich middleweight adventure tourer.Likelihood of purchasei'd say there's a good chance i'll seriously consider purchasing the himalayan 450 when it becomes available.It hits a real sweet spot in terms of power, Capability and price.The addition of navigation, Abs and other features make it an even more well-rounded package.As an experienced adventure rider currently without a middleweight tourer in my garage, The royal enfield ticks a lot of boxes for my needs and budget.Unless reviews reveal any major flaws, I could see myself purchasing a himalayan 450 in the future as my main adventure touring motorcycle.It looks like an excellent value proposition in the segment.

    Awesome Bike 

    The Enfield Himalayan is an outstanding bike, known for its light and easy-to-ride nature. The convenience of the self-starter eliminates the need for kick-starting, and the effective side stand makes parking effortless. The digital central console is user-friendly and easy to read. While designed primarily for off-road applications, its ride handling on city roads is commendable. The bike's rugged and distinctive appearance adds to its appeal, and the engine springs to life effortlessly with the self-start button. Smooth and easy gear shifts enhance the overall riding experience. The Himalayan is not only easy to handle but also versatile, suitable for both city commuting and off-road adventures. Although yet to be taken on the highway for off-road travel, it stands out as a great bike that excels in both urban and adventurous settings.Royal Enfield has successfully delivered a winner in this segment, offering an affordable option that is truly impressive. A potential owner myself, I am drawn to its overall greatness.

    Fantastic machine 

    Its a fantastic machine from royal enfield.I had a re himalayan 411cc and its one of the most affordable adventure bike in india.The servicing cost is merely around 1.5k to 3k which is value of money and even spares are less costly compared to other adv motorcycles available of other brands.Eagerly looking for the launch of this much anticipated and eagerly awaited adv from re with all new engine and loads of new equipment's like inverted forks, Liquid cooled engine, Round and fully digital instrumentation console / odometer, Cruise control just a few to name.I am sure this adv will be a superb machine from re stable which will take adventure junkies to a new and next level for sure.As soon as its launched, Have the plan to get one at the earliest.Thank you.Regards, Shivraj - 911****717.
