Expert Reviews on Hero Impulse

This isn’t our typical BikeWale comparison test wherein we go into the nitty-gritty of design, appeal, technology, riding pleasure, pricing or value even, to come to a conclusion on which is a better product. How can it be; the Hero Impulse isn’t even in production anymore. Plus, there’s absolutely no parity or pricing or performance between the Hero and the Himalayan.

This is the age of machines and gadgets and smart devices. What if you could find one that could iron out all the ups and downs on the road into a smooth running freeway that leads to your never-so-far destination? Well, Hero Motorcorp has given us a tool – something that can make a mockery of the pothole-free roads in and around Mumbai (no pun intended) – the Impulse. This tall lanky motorcycle has made me smile every time, commuting from the remote suburb of Dombivli to our head office in Navi Mumbai.

Two of a kind. The Impulse and the FZ-S are more than just daily commute machines; these also double up as fun toys. But which is the better commuter?
