bought the bike 2 weeks ago and really enjoying it 😍😍🙌 glad I made this decision 🙌 and in India, even normal roads are for off roading 😂😂 and its works great on it

[@TheZenith790]

hey any discounts on offer ???

[@WirelessElectricity]

Hero making cheap quality products ,They are not capable to make any bigger CC Engine Successfully.

[@romanticbasha]

@@WirelessElectricity coming with 400cc bike. They are making bikes as per Indian roads.Everyone can buy it in this pricing.

[@gurusekhar1843]

Mileage?

[@hitarthchaudhari]

​@@WirelessElectricity I use the BS6 for 2 year and I can say it has zero complaint. Much more durable than chutiya overpriced RE Himalayan. Never broke down during rough off roading in farms and long rides.

[@rahulsakunde9431]

The 4v engine still has refinement issues. The engine gets too noisy after 7000 rpm (@ 95 kph). Still lacks power there. There are always vibrations on Foot pegs after 5000 rpm. Many owners are complaining about tappet noise. Gear position indicator is extremely slow. Very poor Head Lamp. Service center people are not competent. I own an Xpulse 200 4v. Not happy :(

[@danishromir]

I’m not getting mileage above 25 😓 lot of problems , not smooth ride , vibrations , hard gearing , clutch not smooth at the same time , i wish I’ll put one lac more and chosed Himalayan ☹️

[@rahulsakunde9431]

@@danishromir That's sad. Please show it to the Service Center. Himalayan has more issues.

[@bishnucharanbarik8835]

Absolutely correct, found those issues during long test ride

[@romeoridermr.p.b1475]

Tapped noise is the biggest problem in this bike, service centre had changed the head to rectify the problem. But still tapped noise is present.

[@scramjet7466]

@@romeoridermr.p.b1475 what is tapped noise?

[@pradeeprvs5718]

I own one, and I have clocked around 1000km within one month..! The service costed me around 2500, 1400 for oil, 900 for center stand, 200 for polishing works etc.. The actual cost can be 1400(depends on your need). Performance wise, I come from a 100 cc motorcycle(Hero passion) when compared to that my riding experience has been so good. I can cruise around 80-90 speed with small vibes on pegs. The acceleration is smooth. Vibrations climb to handle bar when you are going more than 100+(But they are not that much, say old re classic.. I felt fine). Fuel economy for me is 40-42 kmpl. (I do ride gentle.. most of the time) It depends on mindset, if you are coming from big bike.. I don't know how would you feel, probably less. But if you are coming from other side, then you would enjoy it. It can go anywhere, light and confidence inspiring. I had an issue! The bike stops the ignition whenever you start your first ride of the day. I started idling my bike(like 5-10min)then I didn't face this issue.

[@BharathKumar-iq7ku]

Thanks for writing this

[@ducatimultistradav4850]

Xpulse is good for daily commute and weekend off road 🔥

[@Whatreally123]

I own a 4v. Lovely to go on absolutely any surface. However, I have a few niggles. The engine just doesn't have enough power and torque. If it had the Pulsar 200 NS power levels, this would've been absolutely great. There are vibes beyond 90kmph. Nothing like an older RE (I own a classic 500 as well) but still present. And the footpegs I feel should have been a couple of inches more towards the rear. Also lot many times the engine shuts off, many times mid corner which is quite irritating. And the gear indicator just doesn't work well (I really don't care about it) But I absolutely love it. A lot of fun to ride. I plan to put a NMW bore kit and change to aluminium rims. Increase in power and reduction in weight should make this a lot more fun. Hopefully Hero makes a 350-400cc bike based on this and if it has a cruising speed of 110kmph and weight under 170 kgs, I'll but it in a heartbeat.

[@aaronvarghese6955]

How many months

[@psumanta10]

That stalling issue is because of faulty fuel pump. Get it checked.

[@adityalende2872]

what's the city mileage

[@gavinperry8433]

Only negative is its not a tourer, which makes long journeys less comfortable But other than that it's amazing

[@hitarthchaudhari]

Well I rode 360km/day on my last trip. Nevert felt discomfort.

[@rameezahmad5853]

Sir i can give you a honest review i purchased hero Xpulse 200 4v back in May and total i have driven 2500kms. Best bike under this price segment but quality of the product should be more good. I faced the same milege issue 30-32.. max. But comfort is superb. My suspension rear soccor acembly broke in 1800kms then It got replaced with a new one in 20days... Late hero service as usual. Lastly iwould say good one in this price segment and also good for new Bess like me ❣️

[@rameezahmad5853]

And also all the thing u mentioned in the vdio is exact true. 👍🏻

[@DineshMishra-bn4eh]

Proud to be x plus owner....🌹🌹🌹🌹....one of the finest bike by hero..

[@tajdistributors8777]

After your review,and comments given by others,I have to wait for Himalayan 450, if mojo comes with high ground clearance atlest 200mm, It will be good for touring/city and little offroad(bcoz engine and built quality is excellent in mojo)

[@hitarthchaudhari]

I ride it at 110 kmph on NH8's branch road Palanpur-Ahmedabad regularly. Ride smoothness depends of the quality of the road but I thoroughly enjoy it there.

[@walkwithlenin3798]

I'm proud of Indian manufacturers. ❤️Hero ❤️tvs

[@Ezjairb]

On the other hand.. Cb350 gets 30-36 in city and upto 43 in highway

[@krishnamahatre8605]

Four valves are fine, it needs a better, bigger, Engine now. I hope you are allowed to put a big bore kit and then present your review again.

[@AkshaySingh-jk2uf]

please check the pricing of service on 4v, hero is recommending fully scenthetic engine oil for 4v which costs Rs 1250.

[@harshvardhanhenecha8293]

For 2v also. And in MP it costs 1100₹

[@waxanlohit]

Got my Xpulse 4v a few days back... I expected more from the suspension.. like the ditches and speed breakers...can I expect more response from the suspension after first servicing.

[@asmitakrupal4479]

get adjustable front &rear suspension from rally kit from hero, then fine tune it to your weight especially routing that will definitely help

[@1980ify]

Love you Jehan for bringing this series 🤘

[@thorfinn2180]

The engine is getting hot like nuclear core and mileage is around 30😕

[@abhibkp]

I've traveled on X Pulse 2V from Noida to Sonprayag (kedarnath) and back with pillion (my wife) who traveled for 1st time for so long distance in her life and believe me she hasn't complained once of any discomfort. Even I hadn't felt any pain on my butt as well. The concept of seat and pillion discomfort is all a myth. But yes with pillion it was 105 kh/hr speed which I could hardly achieve, but its an old X Pulse 2V after 18k+ kms travel and for me with pillion it was 85-90km/hr the sweet spot.

[@asmitakrupal4479]

Have you heard for ergonomics triangle, I have ridden as pillion on xpulse 2v, its painful, yup shorter height will feel good, but taller won't. So what worked in your scenario might not work for others.

[@santhoshm1705]

Hey sir . I have sent my 4v to first service after that my bike mileage and pick up was down. It was stop unusually in traffic and having many issues in trotelling as they done something in the chain 😪 how to repair that in to before state ? Pls suggest some way

I am telling again, Hero has to bring back the Karizma engine in this adventure, touring, sports variant. Then only Hero will give a tough competition to his competitors and rivals. "Hero" Stop playing around. It is high time to unleashed the ultimate beast the upgraded Xtreme Xpulse.

I'm confused in my buying dececion of Xpulse 200.........It's in between 2V & 4V............

[@anirudhhhh]

Bhai go for 4V. Problem with Xpulse is that it feels underpowered. 4V solves that problem to a small extent. 4V can cruise at 107-110 . The headlight is also brighter on 4V. It also gets a bigger oil cooler. Hero has done good improvements and launched the 4V. Why buy older model. The price difference is not that large.

[@ananddarnal6702]

It's not even a choice 4v is a clear better option
