- A head-to-head between a 450cc liquid-cooled 40 BHP adventure motorcycle and a modest 18 BHP air-cooled trail specialist. The outcome is predictable, but still gives a glimpse into the capability of both the Himalayan 450 and the XPulse 200.
Let me know what you think of this video in the comments section below.
Thanks
Thanks for showing us this side of Himalayan 450, probably no one is gonna upload this kind of video on TH-cam.
Obviously he'd make the best content
Abhi means....
best technical creator
No bakwaas
Only stupid can compare 451 vs 200 cc bike and moron would appreciate such videos
@joyroy7284 check the OG sagar sheldekar
Superb
Xpulse is such a capable trail machine but in the right hands
just waiting for the 210cc LC engine version of Xpulse and the game will change
That xpulse right there is not the new 4v model its the 2v old model.
@@Craftylifestyle2.0 It's the 4V variant brother. The badge can be seen on it's tank if you zoom in a little.
just imagine Xpulse getting a 400 cc engine, goosebumps already
I believe that it's actually in the testing phase but we'll have to wait just a little longer. It would be fun to see both the bikes with close power figures but before that we may actually see another xpulse probably around same cc but more improvements...
Karizma Xtreme and Xpulse 400 are already in testing phase✌❤
@@shubhampandey9497 no its xpulse 210 cc 😞
440
It will be a heavy bike.
Comparing 400 cc with 200 cc .From this anyone can understand how terror xpulse is. Happy & proud to be the owner of xpulse.
Me 2
Terror - bhai tera budget kam tha isliye himalayan nahi kharid paya, munn behlane ke liye galib khayaal accha hain😂
Holy moly , too good ❤❤❤
I'm feeling proud seeing indian motorcycles, indian riders and indian youtuber in this kind of video 😅
You spoke my heart ❤️❤️❤️
Pretty evident that the weight and size of the machine plays a part. RE is significantly more powerful and obviously it's faster on a straight line. Still with it's agility the Xpulse close the gap time to time. Xpulse have that dirt bike DNA which is unmatched by it's current rivals. But considering Himalayan is so much better for touring i feel like the small compromise in off road capability is justified. It's a really capable tourer which can do off road stuff when it's needed. Shed some weight is the only thing you've to do. As it's an RE reliability is always a question mark until it's proven. But seriously impressive machine at first glance 🙃
These guys were Not pushing it. If the himalayan would have been at full throttle, there wouldn't have been a video for us to watch. That specific section where these guys are, is in favour of the himalayan. The xpulse can leave it behind but in a different scenario, not here. I own an xpulse and would prefer one any day considering my usage. But a fact is a fact, my personal preference doesn't matter.
@@dhruvdhiman2398 Can't disagree mate. Because it was kind of a flat track rather than a technical trail. They could've pushed the Himalayan a bit harder. But then the weight comes into account as well where most people in the real world with their limited skill set won't be able to push a top heavy machine like himalayan that hard. But Xpulse is much more manageable for a wider audience. Unbelievably nimble. On a rocky technical trail Xpulse would smoke the himalayan. It's just for different purposes we can say rather than going for a direct comparison.
the entire thing about re is reliability. Idk what you are on @@ഭിത്തിയിലിടിച്ച്വികലാംഗനായതു
yup exactly. this was not even off roading. the riders were obviously good but the road was meh... re was always going to be the winner here. xpulse will shine in a proper offroad, where only the torque will be the key but the weight and pickup will be disadvantageous for himalayan which was just the opposite here.@@dhruvdhiman2398
I wish new xpulse comes soon with a bigger engine
The xpulse suspension took the last jump very well
On the point...👍👍👍
Dude! I'm loving what you're doing with the Himalayan. It's mad! Loving the contents. Thanks man.
Been waiting for this Camera Angle, Thanks
Excelente vídeo , Saludos desde Colombia ... Estamos a la espera de la llegada de la himalayan
A ameture on Himalayan and a pro on xpluse. For the price and CC xpluse did a great job to keep up with 450cc machine
Now, this is a Himalayan worth waiting for.
While watching this Who else were blowing on to their mobile screen to clear away the dust coming at you 😅 kudos to the team for this amazing content 😁
The Himalayan guy doesn’t seem like amateur to me 😂
If there were more twists and turns then race would be more neck to neck, but still thanks for the video and if possible use drone next time outcome will be spectacular .
I don't have a drone.
@@abhinavbhatt 👍
This is very new to watch. I have seen several reviews and races, but only on the road. This is very different and comparatively intersting.
Xpulse would shine with a more technical course or at least the race will be more fair.
Outrightly evident that X Pulse is simply as good and infact, much lighter to ride, and with rally kit options too👍👍
It's exciting to witness the competition between two Indian brands, especially with the Himalayan leading the charge on both road and off-road terrains. Just got mine delivered yesterday, and its performance has left me utterly speechless. Even navigating through city streets, it impresses. Delighted to find it exceeding expectations, despite some negative reviews from certain bloggers.
In the slow sections the Xpulse is Great
i'm actually impress of Xpulse 200 performance . it can keep-up with RE 450 liquid cooled engine .
Its not the bike its the rider, put the Xpulse rider on RE H450 and its game over
In this kind of terrain u can't go past 100 and hold the speed that is the reason
@@kailashsingh7169not stock xpluse tho
This is also not a stock Himalayan@@tangetaier1783
@@shree397Xpulse can best himalyan easily at hardcore off roading.is race me surface is nit that worst so himalyan is having benifit.Give me the xpulse i can pass at himalyan .
I had two crazy trail sessions with the stock Himmy 450 this week, totally awestruck by its ability to handle any road so easily. Can't wait to do some weight reduction and add the knobbies on it. The only thing I am concerned is the tappet noise. Hats off to you man for showing us this kind of transformation with this machine.
Crazy. The skills of both the riders is commendable.
💯
Great stuff Abhinav, this was a brilliant video!
Increíble!! Viva la India !
It's all about weight. Xpulse 400 could be something amazing but there's a lot of weight that can be chopped off current offering itself. I'm loving my xpulse, really believe it's gonna be one of those models that's gonna age really well. We'll be looking at the good old times of xpulse few decades down the line
Tagda video hai bhai, maza aa gya dekh ke
Interesting take would when xpulse 400 and himalyan is pitted against each other..
Damn... It's super awesome.
Ab kaam me dimag nhi lagega bhai
We need content like this. Not the same old sh*t talking about chassis, spects, engine, modes, ABS and all, the company tells them on their webpage. We need to know the capabilities of a bike, and I am quite surprised at what the Himi can do :)
great video, love to hear more of your thoughts about the 2 bikes, Ride Free my friend
Just curious about one thing.
The Himalayan proves out to be superior but why it was not able to increase the gap.
The expulse rider was a pro who has won rallies. Also the bike is lighter and so can go braking late and catch up in the corners. If you watch closely every time the Himalayan was sliding the expulse was getting closer without braking. Then coming out of the slides the Himalayan was tearing away from the expulse. A good rider can make use of the lightweight of the expulse well.
Coz it's footage video where both bikes had to be kept in frame. Not a race
as good as this upgraded 452 is the little x-pulse holds its weight just fine, proof that off road things are equalled somewhat
the cam shaft is done, by the sound of the engine. great stuff!
Hole shot to the Himi every time! These guys are great riders!
It's too bad its release was delayed here in the US.
That's almost full commitment 🔥
@abhinavbhatt this video is like a small action movie. What footage !!! You only need to add some awesome music to this.
Leave the Bike aside for a while..and focus on the FUN they are having
If an Xpulse with 200 cc can do this, imagine what 421cc Xpulse would do. I watched this video more to estimate future Xpulse 421 bike.😍🤩
Ohhhh loved the entire video!!!!
crazy content bro, i love it 💪
Xpulse doing great job with half of the price against 450
Xpulse 40 kmpl on average
125 top speed ( not bad for dirtbike )
Best suspension
Strong build quality
Easy to repair
Spare parts reasonable ( except monoshock )
Amateur my s. If he’s amateur then i m newborn baby.
Amateur doesn't mean someone isn't good, it just means they aren't professional.
Thats something, loved it thoroughly.
Both, amazing riders..
Any race between Triumph scrambler 400 x and Himalayan 450 ?
THat was a seriously cool vid guys!
Fantastic bro !!!
I heard somewhere that hero has started testing of xpulse 400 which will probably based on Dakar rally model. If it's true then hero is going to be a neck pain for other ADV manufacturers. Proud of you Hero motocorp.
Both bike are doing great job and riders too
Sheer size of the engine and power pushes the RE, let the track get a bit more technical, we'll easily see the Xpulse shining. RE bikes are not ready to take a beating that happens in a dirt track.
Incredible footage and Comparison, The Himalayan is a more powerful of the two for obvious reasons, but the fact that a 200cc machine is able to compete on a level of this machine and a lot more economical in terms of service cost makes me happy about owning an Xpulse 4v. Cool stuff Happy and Safe Riding 🏜
what tyres used in that xpulse?
Bro can you do it in Himalayan 411
Can you please upload a picture of both of these standing side by side to see which one visually looks bigger or taller.
where did you alter the wheels for himalayan 450
Underrated video
WOW!
who are these riders Abhinav Sir. Please share their social media handles. These guys are crazy!
One extra data needed to conclude the comparison, the Himalayan ride was mind blowing, can he explain how much effort he made to maneuver the bike vs the xpulse, was it hard or easy for him!? Compared to the xpulse
Just asking this because of the longer wheelbase of the Himalayan and less initial torque
Heavier adv bikes are ridden by throttle & brakes with my past GSA experiences, I don't have much issues adaptinf to heavier bike. Xpulse to Himalayan I say 15% more effort. 10% more only coz off the extra wide tank blocking agressive cornering.
where is this location
Can we tune the Xpluse 200 for performance any hack , chip or something valve hck ?
This is footage video, not a race btwn Me & Abhishek Deka. Hence the gap isn't increasing btwn bikes. Notice me (Himalayan rider checking behind few times). Also Himalayan was being ridden by 100+ kgs on 25psi tyre pressure. While Abhishek on Xpulse is 65kgs top on off roading tyre pressure. Also we weren't suppose push the Himalayan fully or take chances to of a crash.
Xpulse the real king of offroad great guys love u.
Mind blowing.... No one make this type of videos❤️❤️ . only paper work specifications...😅
Waiting for xpulse 400
Ktm Adventure 390
Tvs Rtx 310
Maja aane wala hai 😊😊
Whenever i see your videos in this area, i am jealous. We only have a lot of hills around Bangalore, and finding such vast expanse of flat dirt area is almost non existent, at least close to Bangalore.
I'd take the hills any day.
The skills of these riders😰🔥
I hope we had such trails in goa
What was the speed on odometer?
Upload a video of hardcore off roading that is where Xpulse is going to show upper hand.in these sprint races himalyan is having clear advantage of Xtra power furthermore surface is not worst enough.plus nice racing lines taken by both riders
Rider was not switched right??
We need them to do some talking after the ride bro
Great video. Is there a chance that you'd compare this with the KTM Adv 390. The power figures would make this a more fair comparison in my opinion. I understand the thought behind putting it against the Xpulse, but KTM adv would be a proper match.
Don't know people with KTM 390 Adv. And I don't feel comfortable with asking people to come ride with me for videos. Too risky. Will figure something out.
@@abhinavbhatt Understood, I hope something works out. Best wishes!
Location?
So good to watch
Quality content ❤
Where is this trail Abhinav ? Looks like Faridabad.
Around the Gurgaon Faridabad border.
Is the xpulse engine modified
Where was this shot ? Xpulse is having KA registration. Is it in Karnataka?
I don't believe this is a fair comparison. The larger engine is the only thing keeping the Himalayan in front. For off-road a lighter weight machine and a lesser cc like the XPulse is much more fun and more importantly relaxing. The moment the heavier bike falls is when one knows the burden of picking it. Most people won't have the experience these riders have and the bike would probably fall several times. Take the Himalayan on off roads where there are rocks water etc and see how the XPulse shows it some serious capabilities.
Yeah,the weight plays crucial role,but himalayan can give good vibes then xpulse
Despite that much sand thing still the xpulse rider rode well damn♥️🙌
Would be fun if the riders were swapped can we do that in next video?
Let's wait for xpulse 400
please do a Yezdi Adv vs Himalayan 450 lap on this same track, maybe switch the riders after a lap.
Hi brother your videos are awesome...... Mine height is 171 cm without shoe.....can i ride rally edition comfortably?
why you put the tank bars back on
Himalayan was torqui. But in these kind of trail xpulse is more balance because of weight.
Hi Abhinav, could you share the helmet brand and model you were using in this video? Thanks!
I heard that u are not doing a hot lap
What if the Hero had a 450?
I can see ka and tn reg! Where is this place please tell me?
I want to learn some rally riding!
I have himalayan.
Gurgaon.
Excellent setup! Do you think the Himalayan could do better with an adjustable suspension setup?
Absolutely
Location of the place
There trail is an example of "No Replacement for Displacement".
Correct me if I am wrong, but it looks like the Himalayan rider was sitting and riding 80% of the time, any potential issues with the standing up position or the massive tank maybe? The weight definitely shows! Awesome video and comparison though
I think that's how Rajan rides mostly. There are no issues with standing up and riding on this bike. For reference, I'm always standing up while riding this bike.
Xpulse is like the rx100 of Indian dirt bike fraternity
Where is this location?
Get a drone next time ... awesome video
