Hello.... I own Xpulse 200 4V from past 8 months and driven around 7,000Kms. I thought of doing offroading, long tours etc before purchasing Xpulse. But now am just using it as a simple city bike. My requirement is daily 30 Kms city ride, good suspension and comfort, Mileage is priority, Pillion Sitting comfort for my mother/wife. My friend is having Hornet 2.0 so we thought of exchanging the bike. What's your suggestion on this..? Hornet 2.0 is worthy to exchange with Xpulse 200 4V...?? Hardly i will go highway or long-tours and in the i will never cross 100 KMPH. I need your suggestion about hornet 2.0 performance,comfort, suspension and overall comparison with xpulse 4V. Or should i use Xpulse 200 4V only..???
I am owning xpulse 4v from 2month and clocked 3500km so far. In December i was on uttrakhand trip for 2566 km. On highway i cruised at 70-75 kmph. Everywhere it performed so well. In 60% highway and rest city traffic + hills, it took 64.2 ltr petrol that means average is 40 kmpl. Smoothness is amazing. Only one issue daily every place you will stop people will ask same questions konsi bike hai, kitna deti hai, kitni ki hai. Man this is so much eye catching. The servicing cost is Rs.1100 as hero is now giving new engine oil for xpulse 4v specially i have completed 2 service so far. And no i am not facing engine cut off issue.
@@saurabhchandra6267 it may go down to 37-38kmpl. Frankly speaking i never cruised on that speed so can't say accurately. In city milage is above 45kmpl and at 70kmph on highway it returns 42kmpl aprox.
"If you are considering this motorcycle for city use, absolutely brilliant motorcycle. Nowadays cities have a lot of potholes, and you don't have to dedicatedly go for off roads. In that manner, it's a nice city bike" You made me laugh like hell when you said that. and as usual great review. Was waiting for this very long and thanks for it.
Bro final drive ratio has been increased 38 to 44 as said by you , that will result in less top speed and better pull, thats why net increase in bhp is not resulting in more top speed, increase in power they have compensated with high gear ratio, however it will have a better pull in speeds 👍
I purchased 4v. I compared it to a friend's adv bike. They copied the Honda Africa twin starter and exhaust, the wheel from Himalayan, and the headlight from Volkswagen, with the high beam touching the sky rather than the road and only the low beam focused on the ground. Apart from that, it's a good dirt commute adventure bike with an average fuel efficiency of 37kmpl, sometimes less.
I have been using xpulse since one year. This is the worst bike u can buy in the market today. Please don't waste your hard earned money by buying this bike. The engine is very poor, often gets too hot that u can't keep ur leg on the footrest and I have been complaining this from 3rd service and they don't have solutuon for this. They use hero Engine oil which won't even last till atleast 1200 kms. The Hero service station mechanics are so used to splendor that they are poorly qualified to service xpulse .
I am owner of xpulse 200 2v white color. And I'm proud to be xpulian my job is to daily commute for marketing medical representative, I daily ride 50 kms Nonstop. It's unbelievable Confident bike...
@@sukritsharma1934 hm... Body structure is different for different people... Some have long leg other may have more upper body .. (my friend is 5.7 and he can't do flat foot (
Let me talk about suspension, it is the best thing about this bike. As the bike is at a good height than normal bikes, I do not feel any bumps just go at ith correct ano😃
Very honest video.. nicely covered every aspect about the bike.. I just wanted to ask will it perform decently on highways in terms of overtaking at 85 km as u mentioned it to be it's optimum highway cruise speeds
The change is not about performance on this, it is actually for the engine to be more refined. Other point is that the accesories you have added may have resulted in a slight increase in overall weight hence the top speed has reduced. Just my logic. Good video.
Usually increasing rear sprocket reduces top speed. Since, hero has changed gearing as well, sprocket change is not significant. But , since sprocket size has increased, top speed is limited. Glad to hear the engine refinement has improved. Hero - seems to have gone for polishing the experience of motorcycle, rather than completely changing it. Well played 👌
Nice review bro as always , honest and to the point. Maybe you are the first to tell the difference between 2v and 4v is just marginal.. thanks for the valuable information ... But, above all , the skills you showed are just awesome and the ending was Killer 👏👏👍😎 Thank you so much and keep us informed and entertain 😊🙏
Is pillon seat's comfort same for everyone? I believe that won't be the case. Me and my wife falls into lean category.. we wont eat up much space on that seat..i'm planning to buy this bike and do some mods like 1. Raised handle bar 2. Crash guard 3. Fog lamps 4. Headlight grill 5. Tail tidy Current waiting period in Thane, Maharashtra is 2 months. (Putting all my thoughts 😁. Few might not connect at all)
Hero can build an Scrambler, Cafe racer & ADV on thier Dirt bike Xpulse 200, also an cruiser with same 200 4v engine as xpulse yet they have lazy attitude towards it & their dealers don't keep xpulse more.
It's got to do with the O2 sensor. It tends to run lean sometimes with bad fuel. That's what I have learnt from owning my bike for 1.5 years. It is sensitive to bad fuel.
Himalayan is an all out sports tourer. It's barely usable on trails or pure off road. Excellent for touring and soft road. Xpulse is a beast off road. Especially if you're light weight. Can tour between 80-100 kmph. Only thing you have to take care of is going for a hard break in when you buy it. Hard break in on this bike really smooths it out after 2nd service. Rev the crap the out of it till then.
Hey strell,Please reply I am here for a help.I am looking for classic 350 gunmetal grey and hness black anniversary edition. Both are available in my city.I am 6.3ft suggest me among these one....I am having sporty feel in honda and relaxed front heavy feel in RE...
Am really confused if i need to buy this. Am from Bangalore and planning a road trip from Bangalore to leh which is been a dream from long time. This going to be a first bike if iam buying this. Please advise if it is worth buying. My budget is within 2lakh

Hi guys I bought 4v bike one week ago I am facing jerk while releasing clutch in 1st gear and I feel jerk in crusing at 3000 rpm, can someone say what will be the issue.
Meteor is a completely different motorcycle because of its long stroke engine. Visibly there wont be any vibration on both the motorcycle at 100kmph. But the Meteor will be a bit more refined because of its engine capacity advantage.

@@nikhiljadhav9060 mechanically the bike is amazing.. I was facing issues with battery though. It went completely dead after a year I've made a video on that.. it is now resolved under warranty though
I'm kinda new to this channel, could you please review fz25 bs6? There's almost no trust worthy review on TH-cam- I'm planning on buying it next month, gonna test drive it first anyway (I hope it'll be available)
@@jyotiprakashnanda5653 go for it eyes closed. I own one and it has been a wonderful machine. Gixxer 250 is the best 250 but fz25 is matched very close if budget is an issue. Also fz25 is a much better commute bike and Gixxer 250 is more of an enthusiast bike.
Wow I'm actually considering gixxer 250, it's like fz25 but better- I think I can wait another month for another gear, thanks guys. Anyway I'll be taking a test ride before making the purchase.

Engine cut-off issue at low speeds is somewhat solved by increasing the idling RPM.
Can I adjust the seat height and how much comfortable is this for an 5.6-5.7 ft guy?

Usually increasing rear sprocket reduces top speed.

Hero can build an Scrambler, Cafe racer & ADV on thier Dirt bike Xpulse 200, also an cruiser with same 200 4v engine as xpulse yet they have lazy attitude towards it & their dealers don't keep xpulse more.
If bike doesn't start in gear then definitely there is clutch switch problem, i also faced this in my pulsar after switch change its resolved
It's got to do with the O2 sensor. It tends to run lean sometimes with bad fuel. That's what I have learnt from owning my bike for 1.5 years. It is sensitive to bad fuel.
