Modifications on my Xpulse 200 (BS6) | Touring | Seat, Handlebar Risers, etc.

#ModifiedBikes #Xpulse #TollFreeTraveller
I've had this Hero Xpulse 200 BS6 motorcycle for a few months and I've been making some small changes and modifications to the bike to make it more comfortable for mixed use - city riding, touring and some amount of off-road riding. I've made some modifications to the Xpulse and I've also added a few accessories that are practical and useful on the bike. In this video, I've explained what accessories and modifications I've added to the Xpulse 200 BS6.

[@pritamhaobam2949]

Bro, you have made an absolutely valid point which I haven't thought about. Having a main stand is necessary when there is a puncture. Of course, this is not that valid with tubeless tyres as they can be repaired without removing the tyre ...

[@LeRiderOP]

Got to say, production quality & presentation of the video is top notch 👌💯

[@wonderingartist]

Clear cut information, the bike looks slick and purposeful with these changes.

[@rajevs369]

@Toll Free Traveller finally after scrolling and reading most of the comments, got the answer I was looking for and without troubling you and asking your height. I am surely going to take a test ride and definitely will not take your words for granted unless I experience it myself. I have dropped the plans for the VSTROM 650XT, CB500X and now narrowed down to XPULSE 200 where I found your vlogs. Your experiences are so profound and I am afraid that someday I would bump into you. Have a beautiful experience called "LIFE" So Long !

Thank you!

[@VM-1964]

Most beautifully covered... Each of your well thought out mods... All except one, as per me... And that's the getting rid of mudguards, just for looks!!! It feels like the oddball in the thought process, where an adventurer fell for looks, over functionality🤷🤷... That said, more power to you... And when you feel its worthwhile, to get the original muduards back again, do think of me🤗🤗👍

[@TollFreeTraveller]

Hahaha. Thank you. I'm conscious of the limitation that comes with the tail tidy which is why I mentioned it in the video. I'm not often in a situation where I'm riding in. city traffic on a wet day. If I were to ever be there i would be careful to not spray the crowd. So, for the most part, this has been okay for me.

I like the modifications of the seat it makes riding much more comfortable especially for long motor bike trips balance of the modifications depends on individual choice but overall you have done a great job. Thanks

After using risers if you need longer brake lines use Himalayan brake lines. Also if you need longer clutch cables try Hero Honda Ambition cables. You'll get 3rd party one from a manufacturer called 'Jaggi Gold' for 121 rs. Alternatively you can try Hero Ignitor/ Honda Stunner cables. :)

Reportedly, the headlights of the Xpulse if very weak. Do you not feel the need for front aux lights for highway/offroad?

[@amitkrupal1234]

Low beam is good high beam is little less powerful, watch this video of aux light xpulse. The rider has later changed the orientation of aux light in recent video. Nowadays Hero bikes like passion pro, xpulse are having good light throw in low beam. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnyZmYGvasloa68

[@thewildpitbull2120]

yes... I own a Xpulse the headlight is not good. just serve the purpose. You must add aux lights if you want to tour on it.

[@TollFreeTraveller]

It's better than what I've had on the TB. Not phenomenal but enough for someone like me who doesn't ride after dark unless unavoidable. Might do aux lamps later, but not a pressing urgency for me, personally.

This tail rack is practical for the bike but it can prove to be very fatal in case someone hits you from back. Even a very small or negligible touch (may be in a redlight bumper to bumper jam) can be fatal to the hands of the rider behind your bike.

Do you feel the tyres are fine and don't need any customization? For me, it felt like because they are regular tyres and not tubeless, so a flat tyre on a trip is cumbersome on a bike with dual discs and ABS no? I'm planning to buy this bike soon for myself, but 90% of the time I'm gonna be in a city doing house hold chores or going to office, so maybe it's not that critical for me anyways. Great video BTW. 👍

Hello Rohit, all said and done, I installed the ROX handle bar raiser's, I am not sure if you have highlighted that the bolts used is insufficient to grip the main handle bar with raiser's, hence appreciate if you could share the remedy too to fix this issue. Not sure if you have had issues with this and have fixed it already. Awaiting your response as the handle bar with the ROX raisers are easily moveable while riding and is of high risk. I am also planning a trip on 30th Nov 2021. Thank you
