Honda cb200x is appearing more agile easy to maneuver in city traffic. It is not designed to do off-roading. More of a touring kind. Hero xpulse 200 is an overall allrounder and give the rider more confidence on off roading tracks. Also after sales services, parts, availability of mods will also play a major role to choose between the two advs.

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Given the Hornet hasn’t been selling too well, I don’t think the 200X will do great numbers either. Not that the Xpulse is selling like hot cakes either. And that means spares availability might be a bit of an issue. More in terms of quick availability rather then availability availability.

As for speed I often cruise between 75-85 kmph whenever the roads and traffic permit me.

As you said, CB200x is a road based adv bike. Then why compare it with an off-roader? X 200 is worst when it comes to open highways. But u can do a fair comparison with X 200T, a road based touring vehicle. That would be a perfect match. Hope u note it 😊

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Thanks for you input. We compared the 200X with the Xpulse to give the viewers a perspective and idea about the 200X ADV roots. Just so viewers understand what’s the focus area of the Honda, and how it is different from the Xpulse. As for a comparison with the 200T, I don’t think the 200X is competition to it in terms of product definition. The 200T is a street naked, with road bias tyres - much like the Hornet 2.0. And less like the 200X.

[@h_m_bhat]

@@vikrantsingh6916 Agreed. I don't understand why people who go touring also considers X200, and then complains it isn't go on highways. 🙄 It was not designed as highway purpose vehicle. It's a pure off-roader. And then they start to compare it every other bike out there. Honda knew there's no use in building pure off-roader. The hardcore off-road people are lot lot less in our country. Like 1%, less than 1%?. Then the sales margin will also be less. That's why they gave touring model which can handle mild amount off-road or trails (which most of the Indians think as off-road). Even KTM did the same thing with ADVs. By that perspective, Honda & ktm have given good tourers. It's just they're overpriced 🙄

I think Honda is missing a huge number of potential buyers, by not allowing the smaller authorized dealers and service centers to sell their CB200X, or their CB350, etc. I live in Ganeshpur, just above Uttarkashi, and when I checked with my local dealer in Uttarkashi, he said only "BigWing" dealers will be allowed to sell and/or service them. This make no sense, as the place you really need a bike like this is up in the Himalayas, where the altitude has a serious impact on performance. What good is a touring bike that you can't take on yatra? RE service centers are all over the Himalayas. Honda needs to wake up!

Basically Honda gave the Hornet 2.0 to autologue and said do your thing fam.

[@troublingdogg5561]

Yes it's based on Hornet 2.0 but why no one is talking about CB500X? Well Both CB500X and CB200X are not proper ADVs, what i believe is they are crossovers street ADVs.

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Yes they are. And we will talk more about the 500X as and when we get our hands on it!

[@prakashchalke1661]

I m here to listen and see vikrant sirs amazing presentation and as for the bike my svartpillen 250 is better than this sh...

[@vikrantsingh6916]

[@santhoshs5413]

Thank u sir

[@vikrantsingh6916]

You are welcome Santhosh! :-)

[@kamalthapa6245]

Ground clearance and suspension had to be changed ..

[@vikrantsingh6916]

I would agree Kamal. It would have gotten more - or at least different set of people interested in it.

[@kumarmanik15]

For commuting i think there is hero xpulse 200T . So hows honda 200x has a big big plus?? Why are these people biased towards honda. Puncture ni hoga aisa ni hoga vaisa ni hoga...we Indians must understand that these japanese brands keep making us fools... they rarely launch their best products in India.

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Yes, there are better commute machines than the 200X. No question. What we meant here is that between the Xpulse and the 200X, the latter is the better commute machine. You are free to disagree of course.

[@kumarmanik15]

@@vikrantsingh6916 basically Honda are not showcasing it as a commuter. It has "X" attached to its name

[@da12v]

Vikrant.. u took the beard off!!!! nooooooo 😭😭😭😭

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Hahaha. Ghar ki khati… wapas uga lenge!

[@arbazseebuboy2550]

Waiting for bajaj pulsar 250 series 😍😍

[@vikrantsingh6916]

We are as well. A lot is riding on that bike!

[@bmjadeja12]

Any good bike with the price of 1.5 lakh to 2.5 lakh, should not be more than 160 cc , But must have heel and toe gear shifter

[@kumarobservations4824]

Honda unicorn pulsar cb350

[@debasissikder6534]

I think this bike should be compared with fzs25 .

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Sure Debasis. We will bring you a comparo with the FZ25 as well.

[@debasissikder6534]

Thank you...!!!!

Missed opportunity, missing CBR 250r

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Missed opportunity it most certainly is.

[@argeliog5172]

No entiendo nada, pero me gustaría que esta moto llegara a Colombia.

[@himalayanytrekkerstrekkers7244]

xpulse is beast i ride in Himalayan s

[@sohelshaikh6165]

So just hornet with an adv body kit 👍

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Yes. And ADV rider ergonomics.

[@mutturaj2983]

Hornet's suspension is too hard.. With the same suspensions it makes no sense

[@sheikhubhaisamajsevi792]

Bajaj gives 17 hp in there 160cc motorcycle completely jokes from Honda with lack of power, that's why Honda, Yamaha and suzuki doesn't do well in price bracket like HAMARA BAJAJ

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Honda hasn’t had too many successes in motorcycles in india. The shine and the unicorn part, nothing really has done well. Maybe this is the reason. Maybe it needs to offer something sportier, something with better headlining figures.

[@tubumohanty4385]

Look Like African twins small Brother

[@vikrantsingh6916]

So that - I am guessing - is a good thing in your book?

[@ijs_automotive]

They have plenty of unsold stock of Hornet 2.0 so decided to add pseudo adv kit without any functional enhancements . Now they have perfect recipy to fool Indians 😂 Not as easy as they thought of , honda is only focused on activa G in India 😂😂.

[@vikrantsingh6916]

That’s funny! But as a matter of fact both these bikes would have been conceived for India at the same time. So even though the Hornet isn’t selling well, I agree, this is not an after thought. Could Honda made its mechanicals more ADV like? Absolutely.

[@ijs_automotive]

@@vikrantsingh6916 they are focused on selling activas only that too without giving test rides actually the concept of test rides doesn't exist for honda unless you are influential, famous youtuber, media house etc. Just enter any busy honda dealership in delhi as a common man, ask for test ride and observe how they stare you back. Less said about the service at big wing world for cb350 series many owners are suffering parts shortage and poor workmanship at bww service for cb350. They seriously have to rise above activa.

[@Ashik-xx8du]

Dominor 250 much better than cb200x

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Much better, I don’t know. But maybe we will ride them back to back soon and see which works better in the city!

[@TheWanderingSoul7]

Pricing is too high , Honda is charging a premium for a mediocre bike . 1.4 to 1.5 Lakh should be the maximum on road price for Honda CB200X even Honda Hornet is overpriced

[@vikrantsingh6916]

It is expensive fir what it is, no doubt. Especially when it comes to the competition. Maybe, we will see a revision n positioning of the bike doesn’t do well.
