Hero Xpulse 200 4V review

4 months ago by Shiva Patro2,422 views

It gives good feel while it is on traffic roads or also in off roading . Suspensions are pretty good, Seat comfortable is increased, but they have work on the headlight focus. It gives good mileage compare to other adventure bikes . Low maintenance and eco friendly to middle class families. In just a word xpulse is so awesome.

I'm a true lover of adv and adventure tourer bikes all time.
One of my friends brought a xpulse 2v last year, I took some rides on it and I really got impressed with the way it looks, its refinement, ergonomics etc...
But I was a little upset with its 2v engine because its performance was not that much great when compared with other 200cc engines. Then hero introduced xpulse 200 4v, I took a test drive on it too....
Surprisingly the 4v engine was a lot more fun to drive, still, its engine can't compare with other 200cc but it gives absolute fun to drive like experience for us, it's a great offroader machine ( jr triumph tiger ).
Xpulse 200 4v is the most affordable in the market and segment too. With a pocket-friendly servicing and maintenance cost + better fuel consumption (40+kmpl)
Sometimes I think that may xpulse 4v could be a 250cc or higher (mainly when cruising on highways)
And the headlight.... Hero claims that there is a 21percentage better illumination on the new 4v, unfortunately, the headlight still needs a lot of improvement and could give led turn indicators too.
Take test drives before whatever motorcycle you are buying.

I bought this bike on 23rd March. I sold classic 350 and bought this machine. I liked each and everything about the bike except the headlight. Headlight illumination is not good. You barely see anything on the road. Apart from this as of now everything seems to be perfect. Power and ergonomics are fine for rider. Not so good for pillion for long rides.

5An eye-candy that does all stuff while being pocket friendly. The 2 months ago by Adarsh M S

Someone who's totally into sports tourers and power cruisers has chosen an off-roader to be his ride mate.
I just got my xpulse 200 4v registered and delivered to me on my my birthday. I badly wanted this birthday to be damn special.
Just like any common enthusiast I totally spent hours on youtube and forums like bikewale to see if xpulse would make me regret and all the doubts got kicked on its bottom when I twisted the throttle today.
The initial pull is impressive! I got admit that, I have ridden my fazer 2012 - midnight special for about 15,000 kms and was looking for an upgrade over 250cc. I happened to choose the xpulse totally because of its practicality and price point. I didn't get disappointed with my first rev on this bike, brakes are adequate, power bank is enough for the city and occasional tours. I got say it out loud, everyone of us enter the bike hunt with things in mind like we're gonna hit ladakh in a week and race the laguna seca/ nürburgring in the next. But 99.9% of us ride the city and roads filled with gutters. For that I consider hero xpulse 200 4v to be a gem, although the seats are on the shorter side, it may take a toll on your rear if you're full figured like I am.
The lights are claimed to be puny and useless, but surprisingly it is wonderful and more than adequate to me in the streets with no lights.
The heat from the engine is there in a considerable amount, but yeah, the first service will make it manageable.
The ride posture is very commanding and upright that you feel like a boss while riding it, the stance alone will steal a lotta glance from the people. I personally loved the aggressive updation on the stickers they've done with the 4v. Mine is a raid red and my baby cousin loves it.
So, if you're in a budget, looking for a motorcycle that can go anywhere; if you wanna get a one that won't burn a hole in your pocket ; if you wanna make the heads turn, go for the xpulse 200 4v, i just rode 45 kms inside the city and the streets with a pillion and we both are going to sleep peacefully with nothing but the bare minimum of the body soreness that's gifted by the pollution and traffic.
Lemme list out the pros and cons quickly so that, the someone who always want to cut to the chase can be helped with my review.
Pros:
1. The posture.
2. Adequate power.
3. Mileage.
4. Looks.
5. Maintenance cost.
6. Vocal for the local
7. Exhaust note (the screeching noise is loveable, mimics the latest duke 250 somewhere by a bit, but it's totally my personal opinion)
8. Side stand engine cut off option (my friend's brand new apache 200 4v, just tell and broke its tank fairing - it showed neutral but when my niece pressed on the self start button, it moved and voila, bonk!!!)
Let's get into the cons right away and please note that there's absolutely zero bias and no 'cutting some slack's' gonna happen here
Cons:
1. Gear position indicator (it irritates the living devil out of me)
2. Seats (could have been better.
3. Navigation is sloppy sometimes, as if it was my phone with bad network that caused it, but yeah again, it is not so great.
4. Horn. (sounds sharp and sufficient but not upto my likeness. I'm a lover of the dual horn setups of pulsars, apaches and r15s. My fazer's horn is the same as the r15s and it is really good)
And that is it guys, a review of my brand new hero xpulse 200 4v for your reference and i have totally answered my own questions up there as I have just got my bike, hence it is tested, experienced and written down neatly for all.
For all's notice, I named my xpulse as x23. and it is the best ever gift I have gifted myself so far. 3 years ago, it was my used fazer - midnight special that still stands next to x23.

I just bought the bike a week ago. Since then am riding this bike for every purpose
I will give 4.5 out of 5 rating to the looks and 9 out of 10 to the performance
People do ask me for the pricing of bike. This machine seeks public attention
Thus this bike is a low maintenance bike.
Pros :- 1. Braking
2. Mileage
3. Budget friendly
4. Power is good
5. Instrument clusters are easy to use
6. Sound of the machine
7. Seat height is good enough for 5.6" people
And many more etc.
Cons :- 1. Company should given 6th gear
2. Performance is on the Top
3. Headlight is not that much powerful
That's my point of view
Beginners should go for the xpulse 200 4v

Pretty reasonable price. Seat is more comfortable than most of the other bikes. Suspension is superb, very less bump you will feel. Handling is also great. Best for long tours, you won't get tired. And the last but not the least it's look, my personal experience while riding people will definitely look at your bike and ask about it. It Feels so good.

Bike is good according to prize.
If dual brakes are provided with ABS then it would have been good for safety purpose.
Overall it's a good bike. If little more power would have been there then we would enjoy more.
Personally I love hero just because of comfort. I have glamour bike and have great experience with this.
Now hero understands indian roads better.
Everything is good and main attraction is it's prize.

Hero XPulse 200 4V Long Term Review: Introduction

16 May 2022

Suvil Susvirkar

We will try to live with it as the motorcycle has entered the BikeWale garage as a long-term vehicle. It is here to stay for three months and during this period, we plan to test it in the city and take it out touring.

Hero Xpulse 200 4V: 2021 BikeWale Off-Road Day Review

12 March 2022

Anuj Mishra

With off-road-centric components like large spoke wheels and long-travel suspension, it was bound to feel at home in our tests. And, the improvement in performance due to the four-valve hear was just a cherry on top.

Hero XPulse 200 4V: Road Test Review

06 December 2021

Suvil Susvirkar

This new variant of the XPulse range, which is currently sold alongside the standard XPulse 200, features a four-valve setup instead of the two-valve unit on the original iteration of the motorcycle. How well does the Hero XPulse 200 4V work? We rode the motorcycle in and...
