Q. What is the difference between XBlade Single and Double disk? Is there CBS available?
  • Well, both the variants are the same in performance and looks it's just the difference in braking. Out of choice, you can either opt for a 220mm disc or a 130mm drum unit at the rear. A 276mm disc brake is common on both trims and so is single-channel ABS.
Q. I am a beginner upgrading from a scooter (Roughly 12kms).Daily commute of 40 kms and monthly touring around 400 kms. I am having a hard time choosing b/w the Xblade 160 and new Hornet 2.0. Is the new Hornet really worth 20k extra we are paying for? Is there any alternate machine in the sub 1.5 lakh segment that would suit me.
  • As per your requirements, Hornet 23.0 would be a better pick between these two. If delivers a better power performance, smooth ride quality and fit and finish. Also, it offers better handling. However, at its price and in its segment it is not that powerful. With a similar price, you may have a look at Bajaj Pulsar NS200. It is fun to ride deliver great power performance and capable enough city commutes as well as highways long rides. You may compare both bikes accordingly. Do take a test ride in order to get better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.
