Q. Is CB200X better than X Pulse 200?
  • The Honda CB200X certainly doesn’t have a lot to offer over the Hero XPulse 200. The latter not just comes with equipment suited for any terrain, but also boasts of features like a Bluetooth-enabled console with turn-by-turn navigation. The Honda CB200X is better suited if you intend to stick to the city limits and the occasional weekend jaunts. But if you are looking for something more, why not save the extra moolah and get the XPulse 200. The Hero XPulse 200 makes a tad more power and torque than the Honda CB200X. Though the Xpulse packs more performance than Honda’s ADV, it also has 10kg more to lug around than the CB. So, picking out a clear winner is a tough task. Honda CB200X and the Hero XPulse use a similar chassis and even have the same braking setup. However, it is the choice of suspension and tyres. While the Honda rides on the same USD fork and mono-shock as on the Hornet 2.0, Hero has equipped the XPulse with long-travel suspension at both ends. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership..Read more: Should You Pick Up Honda’s Most Affordable ADV?.
  • No, this two bikes are totally different, if you need tention free bike than go for Honda, or you need to proper offroader than go for hero.. Please visit IRONY WHEELS, for details
  • And if you need all this in one.. the go for Ronin
Q. CB 200X or Hornet 2.0?
  • Selecting between the Honda CB200X and the Hornet 2.0 would depend on your budget, preference of the segment and usage of the bike. The Honda CB200X looks properly buff, compared to the Hornet 2.0, thanks to its ADV-like fairing with a fairing-mounted LED headlamp, tinted windshield, and knuckle guards with integrated LED indicators. Apart from the bodywork, ergonomics, and tyres, the rest of the motorcycle is pretty much the same as the Hornet 2.0. This includes the powertrain, suspension, brakes, and alloy wheels. All in all, asking for a Rs 13,000-odd premium over the Hornet 2.0 feels a little too much considering you don’t get a lot for the extra money. You’re better off buying the Hornet, or if you’re looking for a proper motorcycle to tackle the terrain, the Hero XPulse 200 is a much better, capable, feature-packed option, that too at a considerably lower price point. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

    Honda CB200X: Adventure on the Horizon 

    Just a few months ago, I treated myself to the Honda CB200X, seeking a little adventure on the road. This bike has been a mostly thrilling companion on various terrains. Powered by a 184 cc engine, it dishes out 17 PS of power which is sufficient for light trails and highway speeds alike. The upright seating position and the overall ergonomics make it a comfortable ride, even on longer journeys.Fuel efficiency stands at around 40 kmpl which is reasonably good for this segment.

    high performance, best features 

    My uncles owned Honda CB200X and i got the opportunity to ride it . It is is an entry-level adventure touring motorcycle positioned for both city riding and light off-road adventures. This offers enough power for navigating city traffic and some highway riding . Talking about the features offers a comfortable riding posture with an upright handlebar, a well-cushioned seat which provides a comfortable riding experience to my family . It is not made for off road rides .

    Very comfortable, reliable 

    Very comfortable, Reliable and plenty of power to cruise at highway speeds.I've put 5000miles on mine in the first year just chain maintenance and oil changes and the bike will run forever.It has lots of low end torque so off the line this bike moves but if you cruising at 70 mph mostly any other parallel twin naked bike will leave you in the dust.But that fine with me this bake checks all the boxes and it looks good as well for the price.

    Reliable cruiser 

    Most reliable cruiser.Solid, High quality frame and parts as expected from kawasaki.Having a forward placed parallel twin engine, There is minimum heat felt around the thighs giving it more advantage over the popular v twin engine cruisers.Also parallel twin reduces the vibration of the vehicle, Elongating the life of all the parts.Engine mapping could have been improved as it is still sporty like the other models of kawasaki fitting with the same 650cc engine.The bike always seems to be in an accelerated mode and never seems to settle down at cruising speeds between 100 to 125 kmps.Having listed the pros here are few cons too: poor ground clearance due to bulky catalytic converter and long wheel base.Uninteresting exhaust note.Expensive spare parts.In my opinion: the most practical and reliable cruiser that is available in india at the moment if it is within the buyer's budget.

    Best Bike 

    It's an incredible cruiser machine with a design and engineering that connects with your soul. The precision and ease of riding bring sheer joy, whether in the city or on the highway. The switchgear is top-notch, offering a great feel and rider's delight. The proven 650cc twin engine is constantly updated for performance.

    Exhaust sound 

    After a 2000 km ride and much more experience with Vulcan S bike. I am surprised by its performance. It is quick and fast for a cruiser. It is a sportbike with a cruiser body. Because it is an expensive bike. I just wish it has more features like riding modes etc. Builds quality is awesome. I can't feel the vibration at all. It's heavy, but again because of the low seat height. You cannot feel the weight. The con side of the bike is that I hate the exhaust sound, and there are very limited accessories in India. The maintenance is high.
