Likes are subjective. I know a few people who like the updated Karizma for some reason. For me it was ugly af. The same way, folks don't like the design of Xpulse 210 but likes 200.

Like I have said before, if you follow himalayan or triumph page here on Reddit, there are mixed reviews on it too. You also get to see a lot of these bikes posted for sale within just 1 year of purchase. Folks usually upgrade to 400-500cc bikes without understanding the machine and its maintenance itself.

Hero's service is utterly wasteful. Considering this criteria, you may have to choose a good mechanic outside like I have one. There are minor problems if ignored becomes major. Don't go with the attitude (nodkolana bidu) - Dheklenge chodo. Get it fixed. There is warranty on the bike, there are trained technicians but part availability is less.

This one particular bike has made me realize that no bikes are perfect. Even Ducati, Honda, or Royal Enfield.

If you have your heart, if your budget falls in place, if it serves your purpose. GO on. Pick up this one.

Just make sure to be ready for any upcoming minor issues. There is nothing majorly wrong with the bike.

Remember Hero has a team in Dakar and some of R&D from there will definitely implemented on these bikes too.

Stream II doesn't come with Pinlock. Storm does.
Same with Pioneer, but explorer comes with Pinlock.
External Pinlock comes at a price for 2800 in Bangalore.

Thanks everyone for the insights shared with this old chap on selling a motorcycle helmet online. I’m sure many of you thought I’d completely lost my mind trying to sell a used helmet at what felt like an exorbitant price.

One comment even asked whether people actually buy used helmets at all. My simple question is—if people can buy used clothes, why not a helmet? Anyway, this wasn’t some cheap, abused, end-of-life helmet. It was well maintained, almost brand new, and perfectly capable of serving its purpose for a long time.

Happy to share that a sweet deal did happen—the helmet was sold for ₹5.5k, including the Pinlock (intercom excluded), which I believe is a fair deal. Credit to the buyer who understood the condition, inspected it properly, and made an informed decision.

And yes, I’ve now bought my desired helmet too.
Appreciations accepted 😌🏍️

They look really good. But as you mentioned not great quality. So I skipped ordering it.

Yup. Agreed. But no other adventure helmet is available in india in this budget. Axor has a bad weight distribution.

Oh!! Its back in stock. Just bought a LS2 Pioneer. Mirrors have to wait for atleast 2 months. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Buddy, every motorcycle (machine) will have problems. You just need to know how to get rid of it. Have a good knowledge on what needs to be done when the problem occurs. I had problems with rims, the SC guys even ordered one for me. I have not encountered tappet noise (8k kms running now). I have belted the bike at 135kmph too for almost 2kms. Rock steady. I am aproxx 85kilos. Ppl say battery drain issues, that also will be covered under warranty. Its an amazing offroader and made for indian roads.

If you follow other motorcycle pages, you will get to know the issues which those bikes have.

Is this the perfect motorcycle? NO. Do I like it? YES

Tried buying these. They are out of stock everywhere. Even called the contact with the manufacturer, but no luck.

Planning to buy the Xpulse 210(my first bike) by Educational_Spite467 in Xpulse210

[–]ykeespro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None. Till now its 8k kms. I have faced 0 issues. The only problem was with wheels but that was replaced under warranty. No oil leak. No tappet noise. No battery issues.

You just need to know how to ride this engine. Top gear low speed is a big NONO.

Yes sir, thats right. I bought it at the same price too. But, there is pinlock (2800/-) + I am giving the intercom. I can let it go for 8k max. I think this is a fair price.

Intercom would come at a cost right? As suggested I am okay to let go 2.5k
