Hero Xpulse 200T 4V Review | Pros and Cons Explained | BikeWale

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

What do you think about the new Hero Xpulse 200T 4V? Will you buy it over its rivals? Do let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

[@haridharshan4616]

Hero must give dual channel ABS as an optional atleast because XPulse 200T 4V is a road oriented bike

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

We agree with you.

[@CampTlangram]

Ideal bike for several reasons. This is among the few bikes which still has kick starter that makes it more retro feeling and practical.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Yes. But it adds to the cost now.

[@shaileshdahariya9589]

Pros- 1) Engine sounds amazing 2) Engine has enough torque 3) Mileage is decent Cons- 1) Seats definitely needs to be wider. 2) Footpegs needs to be placed to have more sportier stance 3) Headlamps are better with halogen, because led lights visibility sucks big time. More over, round halogen headlamps might look more vintage style. 3) Handlebars are a bit off designed. I feel pain on my wrist. 4) Clutch needs to more softer. 5) Aesthetic changes are not so pleasing against the older version. 6) Bring back the grab rails from previous version.

[@vsm3331]

agreed the new model looks ugly, especially with the tiny visor and ridiculous color options

[@srinathiyengar.mudgal]

I never understood what is this bike made for, I thought the T stands for TOURING. Dissapointing, indians can't buy a bike each for different purpose / segment.

[@mohanrajr6466]

What's your height and why did you feel pain in the wrists?

[@ijs_automotive]

As a owner of Xpluse 200 2v bs6 I can say that this is a very capable machine and very nimble. Not very refined but it is not anything concerning. And easy manageable with single channel abs.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Ok 👍🏼

[@sayantabanerjee7954]

Mileage?

[@ijs_automotive]

[@sirwarlordx2192]

should make it dual channal abs as safety

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

We second that.

[@rss8400]

Small correction, it's a valve cover and not the engine head that is painted red.

[@Avtr3]

I think this class of motorcycle is perfect... both for City & Highway with both On-road and bit of Off-road.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

This is a road focused motorcycle only.

[@simpleman1546]

A 400 is better. These go out of breath on highways with pillion or extra load

[@anirudhmallikarjun7067]

this by far the most vfm 2-wheeler in its class.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Yes, but others are better in terms of performance, refinement and features.

[@ravikantpandey3612]

What about the pillion comfort in hero xpulse 200t 4v, is it comfortable for pillion rider?

[@CampTlangram]

I have 200T, the latest E20 variant and i've completed 4000 plus kms. This is one of the best all rounder bike.Good for mountain road and trail riding as well.

[@Dushyant933]

I think hero moto is the only company left to offer kick start compared to its competition.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Yes

[@joyarjun3578]

Funny... In the year 2011 hero made a mistake for cbz xtream... Results failure model

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

@@joyarjun3578 ok

[@ramanchawla5081]

Hero should've given dual sport tyres and 19 inch front wheel instead of 17...this would've given this bike a nice scrambler look. Plus the handlebar finished in silver doesn't look good. Black finish would've provided better looks and would've enhance the appeal of the bike.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Ok

[@shaileshdahariya9589]

Agree on 19 inch wheels. Imagine having spoke wheels from its sibling, it would look such a cool scrambler.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

@@shaileshdahariya9589 👍🏼

[@madhubabu-oh3xm]

Looking good, Footpegs not in relaxed position, gear shift should be up&dowm, head light visor should be big enough for wind blast

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Ok

[@sreeharsha1828]

Few decent colour schemes must be provided. Current ones are too hotch potch.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Ok

[@2020soumya]

I agree on that...

[@lvvenky9973]

Thank you Long term reliability of the engine? Will it clock 75000 kms without any failure ?

[@RahulSahu-co9vu]

How much mileage it gives ?

[@abhijeetpatil7653]

It's bit match for those who don't wann 350cc bikes, seat stands out major flaw it can be dual seat model like Highness

[@bismayashankardash]

Any ideas on the suspension travel for the Xpulse 200T on both front and rear?

[@muthulakshmimuthiah4804]

no one speaks about durable metal body, why

[@sattobong6077]

I owe Xpulse 4v ( 5 months now ) and the main problem is mileage problem it’s given me no more then 28 in city . 😢

Why do you think it doesn't come at par with its competitors?

[@ananthakrishnan8484]

The seat can be changed and the seating position will improve a lot.

[@ch7ramesh]

Can we go for occasionally off road with this like xpulse Pro and standard

[@fellowuseless227]

Seat length is too short for those who would like some fun but also practicality to ride with a pillion.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Ok

[@atsonaga5520]

Hero should give a separate engine oil filter, maintenance becomes much easier

[@subashchettri1365]

can i change another higher front tyre

[@s.venkateswarpatnaik2484]

Xpulse 200T4V front design should be changed similar to Pulsar 200/ Honda 200x to get more stylish than initial version of Xpulse 200T

[@Manu-yy3jy]

Dual channel abs required in this bike

[@jogatbharali857]

Waiting for the. Bigger version 450cc

@@KingBriju yes the hornet is the better bike overall despite being a 180cc motorcycle.

[@ritwikroy4135]

This is the most affordable 200cc bike in India. I Love the design. Only the missing 6th cog is a downer for long ride. Seat is more comfortable than xpulse 200.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

It's the same seat.

[@abdurrehaman6116]

I'm planning for one. Can it be possible to do a 1100 km ride in this bike ?

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Yes, you can definitely do it on this bike.

[@Haji.ishere]

Sure but you can’t ride beyond 1100 km after purchasing it

[@gamersama6095]

The performance and reliability of Hero is good but the aesthetics and designs are not good enough. Xpulse 200 4v is definitely good but again the colors are not very eye pleasing, however white is good. But since we are talking about Xpulse 200T both the designs and colors are simply not good.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Even the long term reliability is questionable with the newer engines.

[@rajesh1989sri]

Can rallykit been fitted on this bike ???🤔🤔

[@abhisheknigam80]

It's a road bike. You would rather buy an xpulse 4v if u want the rally kit

Nope.

@@BikeWaleOfficial tq so much it's a just funny doubt 😁

[@balajiiyengar4]

Xpulse T is much better than the xpulse off roader as it is not tubless and having disc in the rear makes it even difficult to do the puncture repair, side stand is hopeless, especially fpr short riders. I am experincing this for the last 8 months, please avoid the off road bike and go for the xpulse T

[@drrdmohile]

I own this bike. Using it for a month. I can add two more negatives which you missed. No mileage shown , the gear indicator is useless. As soon as you press the clutch, gear reading disappears and a dash is shown. This is irritating, especially in traffic. I wonder how Hero has provided this thoughtless feature.

[@abhisheknigam80]

Real time mileage isn't available in most bikes in this category. Yes the gear indicator is a little laggy and only shows the gear once it's slotted into and ridden for a bit.

[@drrdmohile]

@@abhisheknigam80 real time mileage is available in Ronin, which is same category.

[@RaghavCh]

Its never going to see light of the day, it's near extinct. Little rearset or centre set foot pegs should be norm in this class. Seat is lengthy but narrow for a tourer. Design wise, didn't look macho. Once a failure, very hard to recover. No spares, because of very low sales.
