The bike of my dreams
I had bought my bike back in Jan 2017, and till now whenever I ride it feels like new, this bike has low cost maintainance for a normal service it costs around 1200-1500, and the mileage is awesome, I got a mileage of 48-50, and in long range ride once I got a mileage of 58, this bike is decent for daily use, because nowadays many big fats bike are here but still my beast doesn't feel old or less stylish, plus it is pocket friendly, I would suggest this is the best bike for a normal person.

Over all good at performance
It's good bike with good efficiency and mileage. You can use this for long time use. Proper air cooling. Best bike for long drive. It makes you feel so comfortable. You will enjoy the throttling. Feels smooth. Premium category and very under rated one.I suggest everyone to buy this bases on my experience

Apache rtr 180 review
Overall experience good but city mileage very low only 35 in chennai. 80k run in native salem i achieved 46 mileage but in chennai it is very low. Plastic bodies get dull after 50k.Overall looks and bike looking good. Small size bike and riding feels vibration after 50 speed. Double disc feels good compare to drum.

Nice bike for trip
If you're just getting into adventure biking or need a capable dual-sport on a budget, the Hero XPulse 200 4V hits a sweet spot. It may not have massive horsepower, but it makes up for that with heart, agility, and sheer fun. Engine & Performance: The 200cc oil-cooled, 4-valve engine is a noticeable upgrade over the older 2-valve version. It feels more refined, revs smoother, and delivers around 19 bhp — not mind-blowing, but enough to get you confidently through city traffic and light trails. On highways, it’ll cruise comfortably around 90-100 km/h, but don’t expect to chase sportbikes.

Great package deal at this price point.
I loved riding the bike. At this price point, it's a great package deal well suited for a more urban setting although I've seen people satisfied with its offroad performance. My height being 5 ft7, the seat height could be bit more low which would suit my riding style and preference better. Overall, go for it if you're looking for a reliable urban commuter

Best Performance
Suspension of this bike is extremely good and the performance of this bike is just amazing, this bike's comfort so good that you'll not be having back pain and even there will not be any issue in off roading, mileage is also much better of this bike and even due to wider wheels, safety is also good.
