समीक्षक के बारे में

This bike is not suitable for long rides,
Performance is not up to the mark, love the look, servicing cost is less, xblade has a digital meter problem and chain socket problem
The Digital meter goes blank so needs either replace once a year or repair
Chain socket-need replace on every 15k-20k kms
Maintenance - here little high because of the digital display and chain sprockets.

समीक्षक के बारे में

bought my xblade in December 2020, rode it around 5000 km on highways and in the city with low to high traffic. It is my daily commute which covers 32 km every day. At the end of the day, I am pretty satisfied and happy with my bike and its performance.
Should you buy it or not.?
Yes, absolutely if you are looking for the following:
A 150-160 cc bike that you can rely on, every day. Honda's engines are reliable, I previously owned activa, for 6 years, used day-in-day-out without any single issue, apart from regular maintenance.
Excellent mileage. I got 73 km/l a couple of times, believe me. I'm getting 50-57 km/l in the city with moderate to high traffic - of course, it depends on your driving style. I don't know any other bike like this in this segment that can even comes close to these figures, I also have a TVS Apache 200 4v bs4 that hardly gives me 39 km/l for my riding style.
These are my fueling time stamps with odometer reading, see for yourself:
Great suspension, you can easily ride through a decent-sized pothole without even recognizing it. Comfortable for pillion too. Ride quality is great.
Smooth engine and gearbox. Very refined and smooth engine, no vibrations generally, very little vibrations even at 102 km/h (that's the maximum that i have gone). The gearbox is also smooth for quick shifting in the city. The clutch is very light, i am really impressed with the clutch. Breaks are also great, i had some close calls where single-channel abs was helpful. (it would be great if Honda had given dual-channel abs or at least combi-braking)
Now, no bike is perfect and it is the same with honda xblade as well.
The most significant con is its price, 1.13 lakhs ex-showroom price for a dual disc is a little high compared to the competition, but I decided to pay that price for its mileage, comfort, and reliability. Dual-channel abs or combi-braking might have justified the price.
Looks: xblade is a sharp-looking bike, you will like it or not, simple. It doesn't sit on a balance like a pulsar 150 (which is neither sporty nor conventional - it's a balance)
Power: every other bike in this segment offers more power than xblade which is 13.9 ps (except fzs-v3, i think). So if you go by the specs and are one of the people who think that power matters, xblade might not appeal to you (I rarely used 17 ps of power on my apache 200 4v bs4). But it offers more torque 14.8 nm, which is important than power for daily use in the city for the commute.
Service and spares: I will be straight, Honda's service is good, I didn't face any issues with the sale or service till now. But you might have to wait a long time for spare parts which are not immediately available (because of the low sales figure)
For those who are confused between unicorn bs6 and xblade bs6:
Both the bikes use the same engine. But power and torque have been tuned differently. Xblade offers more power and torque than unicorn bs6.
xblade comes with a rear-wheel of 130/70 profile so that you can be more confident in the corners.
Unicorn bs6 comes with a more conventional look and design (even the dash is in analog), xblade comes with a fully digital dashboard. Unicorn bs6 offers a longer seat and a negligible step-up.
My final take is, xblade might not be as good as other bikes (with more power) in the segment when you are looking for sheer power. But for an average rider who wants a daily commuter that doesn't hurt his pocket (i'm talking about fuel) and looks sharp, xblade might be the choice. I will take my xblade rather than my apache on any regular day without any second thought.
This review might be lengthy, i tried to cover most of the aspects. I do love riding bikes, not fast though, when you are fast you are in an adrenaline rush (most of the time), when you are slow you are yourself by all senses, that's the way i like it.
Thank you.
