Commands a rather small price premium over its predecessor
For quite some time now, we've known pretty much everything there is to know about the Hero XPulse 200 BS6, and that's because all the details were up on the manufacturer's official website. Everything except the price, that is. The final piece of the puzzle has now fallen into place because Hero has launched the XPulse BS6 by updating its website with the official prices. The bike is now available in just one variant priced at Rs 1,11,790, making it just a little over Rs 5,000 more expensive than its BS4 predecessor.
The XPulse continues to be powered by the same 199.6cc fuel-injected motor but as a result of the stricter emission norms, output has fallen by 0.3PS and 0.65Nm to 18.08PS at 8500rpm and 16.45Nm at 6500rpm. This is due to revised ECU mapping and an extra catalytic converter in the exhaust system, the latter of which is largely responsible for the price hike.
The rest of the bike remains pretty muc unchanged, so it still packs in capable off-road hardware like wire-spoke wheels in a 21-inch/18-inch size combo, ample suspension travel thanks to its 37mm telescopic fork and preload-adjustable monoshock, and a significant 220mm of ground clearance. Braking is handled by 276mm/220mm disc brake combo, and single-channel ABS is standard. The XPulse 200 is the most affordable adventure bike offering in the country, with the next most expensive bike being the Royal Enfield Himalayan starting at Rs Rs 1.89 lakh.

- Great, But if you add on a bit extra to stock bikeBike is really good, if you choose to ride a stock vehicle, you might feel a bit comfortable, but if you get some accessories on it, it will be your friend for life. Just like i have added accessories like, seat modification with extra foam, handle bar riser, Fog light(for sure), Center stand, Top rack with back rest.Read More2
- Hero x pulse 200 4V review after 22000 kmsI am five eleven and it suits me for my height. Comfort of a rider not a pillion and mileage is a plus for this bike. Maintenance cost is also very good and cheap you can get service done from any of the authorised hero service centres. I have been driving since almost twenty two thousand kilometres so far and im fully satisfied with the performance of this bike. I just changed chain socket and fuel motor in the fuel tank. Ride comfort is very good for rider not for pillion thats only negative. Yes I would definitely recommend this bike to those who have height above five eight. I am driving this bike since two thousand twenty two and no major faults or damages done to bike. I am fully satisfied with this bike.Read More5 3
- Best choice for Bad Roads and Daily Use.I chose Hero Xpulse 200 4V for its comfort on bad roads while still being easy to ride daily. The suspension works great on potholes, the engine is smooth for city rides, and maintenance stays affordable. Ride quality has been comfortable so far, especially on rough roads. Mileage is decent for daily use, handling feels light and confident, and while top speed isn't aggressive it's stable and relaxed at cruising speeds. Yess -- I'd recommend it for daily riders who want comfort on rough roads, easy handling in traffic, good mileage and reliable performance. Not ideal if you want high speed or aggressive sport riding.Read More3 2
- Perfect offroad machineIt's a perfect bike for beginners who want to learn more into offroading and motocross. Along with that you can use it for your day to day life and even long tours . Perfect for solo riding. Low maintenance, good mileage. I have ridden it for more then 30000km . From plain to hills to high altitude area. It's good for offroading, even rode it in off road track it performs pretty good. Not good if you want to go for long tour with pillion. If you want to learn motocross or rally or offroad trails you can definitely go for it. Even looking into the Indian road conditions it perfect. You can do long high way ride with decent speed of 80-90kmph.Read More1
- NATURE OF XPULSE 200 4vBest for off-roading as it consists of great tyres with a large height of seat. Great suspension over and may be less chance of occurrence of pains like body and leg pain and back. Highly recommended for adventurous. It so good. kinda ride mostly enjoyable and give an mileage of approximately 30 to 40 kilometres per litre(good as compared to other adventurous bikes) best for both good and bad condition roads and it can be controlled easily. Yes I will recommend this bike and safety should also be looked over only a person with a good height can ride it. Very easily rest should be aware while riding this and should not limit the capacity of fuel in it.Read More1 1
