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

    Very great managable bike 

    The suspension of this bike is very well tuned and the mileage got easily 30 to 35 kmpl depending upon the ride. The suspension is adjustable with the soft, comfortable and stiffer side which is incredible and for off roading it is very nice and comfortable. This bike is so damn manageable and so the initial pickup is very nice and there and you can take this bike to whenever you want and so its very easy to use. If you want to go off roading and any others so it is a very enjoyable bike.

    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.

    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.

    Love for the design and different look 

    I love the bike just because of look and mileage and people mostly buy for this bike for the design and look and is also affordable but is not very powerful bike. This bike is great for the middle class boy for the regular use and the gearbox is very good and the seating position is very comfortable and comes with the lot more space but is not a value for money bike. Comfort is totally enhance in this bike and can go for a long rides with this bike and comes with the single channel ABS.

    The bike's lightweight frame and responsive handli 

    I had my KTM 125 Duke for about a year now and it has been quite the nimble companion on city streets. With its 125 cc engine that puts out 14.5 HP, it makes zipping through traffic a breeze. The bike's lightweight frame and responsive handling make it a joy to ride in the urban jungle. I also love the sharp, aggressive styling that turns heads wherever I go.However, it's not all smooth riding. The KTM 125 Duke struggles on highways. The engine feels strained above 80 km/h and long rides can become tiring due to the lack of power.
