  • Acceleration and speed problem when riding

    4 years ago


    Prakash Puree

    I have a purchase a honda xblade since 11 month ago now i have facing a serious problem in my bike, when i am accelerating my x blade in 3rd and mainly 4th or 5th gear starting from 40 km/hour and upto 55 km/hour speed, my bike is not taking acceleration smoothly and the speed is fluctuating to a remarkable extent. And when i drive my x blade above 55km/hour (for example like 60 or 65 km/hour speed) steadily then also the speed is fluctuating, i am very much worried about this problem. Surprisingly honda service center unable to solve this problem.

    I bought honda xblade abs in " the noble honda-erode" and i am having "pearl spartan red" colour. Riding:1. Riding is too smooth, so comfortable 2. My top speed 1353. Igot mileage of about 50+ in city and in highways *60/60+kmpl at 60-70kmph *50kmpl at 90kmph *35-40kmpl at 100-110kmph4. Very good in both onroad an offroad riding5. No pain seen in long trips and really i want to say no tiredness during long trips.6. Sound is too low7. The monoshock suspension does its great work.Looks and performance:1. I think this is the best looking in 160cc segment bike comparing to all other 160cc bikes 2. Performance is very good and more than new model hornets3. The led headlight is more bright in night rides 4. Braking really awesome... may the rear brake is drum, but it's braking performance really up to the mark.5. The back light t-shape lamp is attractive even when i see at other xblade bike riders 6. Looking too sharp edges giving more attractive appearance. Extra fitting are good.7. Digital metre is very clear in day light and it shows gear indicator, rpm, time ,and also they had given 3 trip metres 8. Seeing petal disc too good9. Dual splitted outlet looking great and the sound created in the outlet is different and i liked that sound.10. Rider can notice that near your thigh there is a noticeable fitting in bike. That is very helpful.11. The front wheel may look small 80/100 but it's not a matter, performing good and it is acceptable look Service and maintenance: 1. I had finished 2 services and centres are very respectful and too responsible.2. As i am having pearl colour, the dust will be seen after every ride. I just clean in within minutes. And please clean your xblade everyday so that it looks more eye catchy in front of other bikes.3. Don't let your bike in sunlight.4. Air cooling system superb: first up to 5 or 6 km engine heat will seen after air cooling system does its job well.5. Just leave a small gap during long trips in each 60km interval. Pros:1. Mileage2. Pickup3. Best for trips n commuting4. Abs (compared with other bikes and i am giving 5/5)5.Turnings and u-turns is very easy6. Presence of hazard switchCons: 1. No kill switch2. No rear disc ( for those who are seeing disc, but drum is nearly performing well)3. During rainy season everyday for the first back wheel produce screeching sound(1st time only).

  • Day 1 Ownership review

    6 years ago


    P Banerjee

    Just a Day old. Buying experience was nice. Rode it for around 50 Kms, and total experience rating is 4/5. Lights are bright, draws instant attention from the onlookers. suspensions are great, clutch is light, gearbox gives a few false gears sometimes, manageable. The sitting posture is not so good. May give a slight back and foot ache after a 40mins ride. Overall powerful bike. You won't feel a lack of power in daily runs. Response to throttle is good. Front disk brakes work as intended. Good road grip. Good balance. It has a great presence on road. Style indeed. I got the matte blue colour, good to look at. The colour schemes are well designed too. The engine sound is also distinct, and not very aggressive, which is a good thing. Nice machine. You can go for it, but take a test ride first.

  • Cant be any better!

    5 years ago


    Kritin Dayal

    To sum up, this is my first bike as a b'day gift from my dad. He researched a lot (without me knowing) and manage to filter some bikes for me. They were Suzuki's gixxer, Yamaha's fzs, honda cb hornet, and this(the xblade) .
    Long things short in the month of April i was surprised with this bike!
    Coming to the bike this is my first bike (but have rode some before) . I am totally satisfied with this . The looks are total head-turner and never left you unnoticed! performance wise , i don't know why, on paper its sounds utter disappointment , bit to the surprise, it is just as smooth as any other 160 cc bike. It manages to launch faster than gixxer (compared personally) though it is under-powered! But i never mind those numbers. one should always pick a test ride and then decide! The seats are comfortable. gear shifts are smooth (sometimes i get false neutrals though) and have great maneuverability
    and never feels as heavy as it is on paper (140kg).
    I am totally satisfied with the kind of performance coupled with mileage( i am up for 150 kms on this bike and i am getting around 40 before 1st service) and Honda's unmatched service!

  • Faulty Bike

    5 years ago


    Callwin

    Buying experience was good... Dealer was good, Service guys was good.. My bike is just 2 weeks old and i had an issue with my bike. Engine Fluctuating(like there is no petrol) while am driving around 45-50km..i took to service centre and the guys over there said they have to look in to it as it is new bike and they weren't aware of this complaint as it's new to them.. So they said they need some time around 3 days.. After 3 days they called me and said that they have rectified the problem by cleaning Carburetor.. I test drive it.. But it is not fully rectified.. Still am facing the problem.. I said to that service manager and they said they will look in to it and said me to drive for one week and come if you still facing the issue.. So my request for new buyers is to check the vehicle that you select.. Drive it and see.. because Buying a faulty bike hurts a lot.. Bike is super smooth.. Pick up lags little, Strong mid range, Gear problem, but it can rectified.. Comfortable for Tall riders..

Engine Fluctuating(like there is no petrol) while am driving around 45-50km..i took to service centre and the guys over there said they have to look in to it as it is new bike and they weren't aware of this complaint as it's new to them.. So they said they need some time around 3 days.. After 3 days they called me and said that they have rectified the problem by cleaning Carburetor.. I test drive it.. But it is not fully rectified.. Still am facing the problem.. I said to that service manager and they said they will look in to it and said me to drive for one week and come if you still facing the issue.. So my request for new buyers is to check the vehicle that you select.. Drive it and see.. because Buying a faulty bike hurts a lot.. Bike is super smooth.. Pick up lags little, Strong mid range, Gear problem, but it can rectified.. Comfortable for Tall riders..

  • Acceleration and speed problem when riding

    4 years ago


    Prakash Puree

    I have a purchase a honda xblade since 11 month ago now i have facing a serious problem in my bike, when i am accelerating my x blade in 3rd and mainly 4th or 5th gear starting from 40 km/hour and upto 55 km/hour speed, my bike is not taking acceleration smoothly and the speed is fluctuating to a remarkable extent. And when i drive my x blade above 55km/hour (for example like 60 or 65 km/hour speed) steadily then also the speed is fluctuating, i am very much worried about this problem. Surprisingly honda service center unable to solve this problem.

    I bought honda xblade abs in " the noble honda-erode" and i am having "pearl spartan red" colour. Riding:1. Riding is too smooth, so comfortable 2. My top speed 1353. Igot mileage of about 50+ in city and in highways *60/60+kmpl at 60-70kmph *50kmpl at 90kmph *35-40kmpl at 100-110kmph4. Very good in both onroad an offroad riding5. No pain seen in long trips and really i want to say no tiredness during long trips.6. Sound is too low7. The monoshock suspension does its great work.Looks and performance:1. I think this is the best looking in 160cc segment bike comparing to all other 160cc bikes 2. Performance is very good and more than new model hornets3. The led headlight is more bright in night rides 4. Braking really awesome... may the rear brake is drum, but it's braking performance really up to the mark.5. The back light t-shape lamp is attractive even when i see at other xblade bike riders 6. Looking too sharp edges giving more attractive appearance. Extra fitting are good.7. Digital metre is very clear in day light and it shows gear indicator, rpm, time ,and also they had given 3 trip metres 8. Seeing petal disc too good9. Dual splitted outlet looking great and the sound created in the outlet is different and i liked that sound.10. Rider can notice that near your thigh there is a noticeable fitting in bike. That is very helpful.11. The front wheel may look small 80/100 but it's not a matter, performing good and it is acceptable look Service and maintenance: 1. I had finished 2 services and centres are very respectful and too responsible.2. As i am having pearl colour, the dust will be seen after every ride. I just clean in within minutes. And please clean your xblade everyday so that it looks more eye catchy in front of other bikes.3. Don't let your bike in sunlight.4. Air cooling system superb: first up to 5 or 6 km engine heat will seen after air cooling system does its job well.5. Just leave a small gap during long trips in each 60km interval. Pros:1. Mileage2. Pickup3. Best for trips n commuting4. Abs (compared with other bikes and i am giving 5/5)5.Turnings and u-turns is very easy6. Presence of hazard switchCons: 1. No kill switch2. No rear disc ( for those who are seeing disc, but drum is nearly performing well)3. During rainy season everyday for the first back wheel produce screeching sound(1st time only).

  • Day 1 Ownership review

    6 years ago


    P Banerjee

    Just a Day old. Buying experience was nice. Rode it for around 50 Kms, and total experience rating is 4/5. Lights are bright, draws instant attention from the onlookers. suspensions are great, clutch is light, gearbox gives a few false gears sometimes, manageable. The sitting posture is not so good. May give a slight back and foot ache after a 40mins ride. Overall powerful bike. You won't feel a lack of power in daily runs. Response to throttle is good. Front disk brakes work as intended. Good road grip. Good balance. It has a great presence on road. Style indeed. I got the matte blue colour, good to look at. The colour schemes are well designed too. The engine sound is also distinct, and not very aggressive, which is a good thing. Nice machine. You can go for it, but take a test ride first.

  • Cant be any better!

    5 years ago


    Kritin Dayal

    To sum up, this is my first bike as a b'day gift from my dad. He researched a lot (without me knowing) and manage to filter some bikes for me. They were Suzuki's gixxer, Yamaha's fzs, honda cb hornet, and this(the xblade) .
    Long things short in the month of April i was surprised with this bike!
    Coming to the bike this is my first bike (but have rode some before) . I am totally satisfied with this . The looks are total head-turner and never left you unnoticed! performance wise , i don't know why, on paper its sounds utter disappointment , bit to the surprise, it is just as smooth as any other 160 cc bike. It manages to launch faster than gixxer (compared personally) though it is under-powered! But i never mind those numbers. one should always pick a test ride and then decide! The seats are comfortable. gear shifts are smooth (sometimes i get false neutrals though) and have great maneuverability
    and never feels as heavy as it is on paper (140kg).
    I am totally satisfied with the kind of performance coupled with mileage( i am up for 150 kms on this bike and i am getting around 40 before 1st service) and Honda's unmatched service!

    Buying experience was good... Dealer was good, Service guys was good.. My bike is just 2 weeks old and i had an issue with my bike. Engine Fluctuating(like there is no petrol) while am driving around 45-50km..i took to service centre and the guys over there said they have to look in to it as it is new bike and they weren't aware of this complaint as it's new to them.. So they said they need some time around 3 days.. After 3 days they called me and said that they have rectified the problem by cleaning Carburetor.. I test drive it.. But it is not fully rectified.. Still am facing the problem.. I said to that service manager and they said they will look in to it and said me to drive for one week and come if you still facing the issue.. So my request for new buyers is to check the vehicle that you select.. Drive it and see.. because Buying a faulty bike hurts a lot.. Bike is super smooth.. Pick up lags little, Strong mid range, Gear problem, but it can rectified.. Comfortable for Tall riders..
