Trending Questions on Hero MotoCorp Bikes - Answered by Autocar Experts
I am planning to upgrade from a Classic 350 and am looking for something priced between Rs 1.5 lakh and Rs 3 lakh. The bike should look and feel different from the Classic 350. I am currently considering the Strom SX 250 and the NX200.
I want to buy a scooter. Between Honda Activa, Hero Destiny, and TVS Jupitor 125, which one is the better option ?
I'm 6ft tall and have been riding FZ-S and RE Classic 350 for 13 years. I'm thinking about getting an ADV, and I've narrowed it down to the Hero Xpulse 210 (Top), Honda NX 200, and TVS RTS 300 (Top). I'm looking for a comfy ride, good mileage, and decent service. I commute 30-40 km daily and plan one long trip of about 700 km a year. Which bike should I pick, or suggest a bike apart from the one listed? Thank you!
I have to ride from Ghaziabad to South Delhi every day, which is about 80 km, and a large portion of it is in traffic. I might also take solo trips on long weekends. I used to love the Gixxer 250, but due to pillion comfort concerns, Iโve shifted my preference toward cruiser or neo-retro bikes. I like the Hunter 350 and the CB350, and I also love the look of the GT650 but donโt have the money to buy it. My current decision is leaning toward the Hunter, but Iโm afraid of making the wrong choice, especially given its touring and high-speed performance limitations. Please suggest which bike would be most suitable.
Both bikes that you have shortlisted will be excellent companions for your long daily run. Both the Honda CB350 and Royal Enfield Hunter 350 have smooth, torquey engines, upright seating ergonomics and a plush suspension setup. If you are a taller person, you may feel a little more comfortable on the CB350 because it is a larger machine than the Hunter, although the RE isn't exactly cramped.
In a similar price range, you should also take a look at the Hero Xpulse 210. With its long-travel suspension, peppy engine and commanding ergonomics, this could possibly be the most comfortable bike to tackle long distances every day. Its seat height - at 830mm - is on the taller side, but if that's not a dealbreaker, we'd strongly recommend taking a look at it.
A test ride of these three will help you decide which is the best option for you.
I am 21 years old and 6 feet tall. I am looking to buy a bike under โน3 lakh. I have considered the Classic 350 and Meteor 350. Could you please give me more suggestions based on my height?
Between the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and Meteor 350, the former would be our recommendation. The Meteor's feet forward position will transmit more jolts to your back over bad patches of road. Therefore, it won't be comfortable over long stints in the saddle. The Classic's upright and neutral rider's triangle will be easier to live with on a day-to-day basis.
You should also take a good look at the Honda CB350 models because they have a similar riding experience to the RE 350s. But are much lighter and come with alloy wheels and tubeless tyres. They also have a slip/assist clutch, resulting in little effort when operating the clutch.
Since you are a taller person, looking at an ADV like the Hero Xpulse 210 and TVS Apache RTX 300 is also a good idea. Of the two, the RTX is the better all-rounder, but the Xpulse is lighter.

I currently ride a first-generation CB Hornet 160 and am planning to shift to an automatic scooter. I mainly use it for commuting to the office and short trips within Bangalore, with weekly usage of around 70 km. I do not want an Activa or anything in that category. I am looking for something with larger wheels and more power, such as the Aerox, Aprilia 175, or Hero Xoom 160. Are these good options to buy now, or should I wait for the Honda ADV 160 (if it comes to India) or anything new that might be launching? Please suggest.
Hey there, I am confused between the Hero Extreme 160R 4V (with cruise control) and the Yamaha XSR 155. Iโm a college student and want a bike for daily commuting, with enough power for hill rides, affordable service costs, and good fuel economy. Right now Iโm leaning more toward the Extreme 160R 4V but Iโm still unsure. Can you help clarify which one I should choose?
The Hero Xtreme 160R 4V is a sporty commuter which has a feature no other competitor in the segment does - cruise control. It has a reasonably peppy and smooth engine, good suspension and is quite a comfortable machine overall, even for taller people. It will also return good fuel economy, and Hero machines are generally known to be affordable to own and maintain. It is also quite a bit more affordable than the XSR155, so if your budget is tight, then it makes for a good option to consider.
Coming to the Yamaha XSR155, this is a far more modern machine in terms of its engine architecture and its chassis design, using proven fundamentals from the R15 in a neo-retro package. The XSR is sure to be the quicker, better-handling machine while also returning comparable fuel economy to the Xtreme. Yamaha's aren't known to be expensive to live with either, but since the XSR has a more complex powertrain, its running costs could be a little higher than the simpler Hero.
Both are different machines from distinct segments, so we would urge you to go get a test ride of them so you can make an informed decision.
I am 33 years old and currently own a TVS Jupiter 125 (2023) and a Yamaha FZ-Fi (2017). I travel around 80 km round trip every day to work on uncomfortable and patchy roads. Iโm looking for a bike that can handle long daily rides comfortably and reliably. I want a sporty-looking 150โ250 cc bike with acceptable real-world mileage, low maintenance, and a durable body. Which bike would you recommend for my daily commutes?
Since you have a long commute and you want a sporty-looking bike, the options you should be looking at are the TVS Apache RTR 200 4V, Bajaj Pulsar N250 and Honda CB300F. These are machines that will return respectable fuel economy, have enough performance and comfort to tackle your long daily commutes and also be reliable in the long run.
However, since you have mentioned that your route has a lot of bad sections, we would strongly recommend you take a look at the Hero Xpulse 210. With its upright ergonomics, long-travel suspension and smooth, tractable engine, this will be the most accomplished bike to handle your daily runs.
Take a test ride of these bikes to see which one suits you best.
I need a bike mainly for office commuting in city areas. My budget is โน2.5 lakh. I want a bike with great suspension for bad city roads, easy and nimble handling for bumper-to-bumper traffic, good ergonomics, a cushioned seat, and strong reliability so it can be used for the next 12 years with no major part failures. Thanks.
Considering your requirements, the options we would recommend you take a look at are the Bajaj Pulsar N250, TVS Apache RTR 200 4V, TVS Ronin, Honda CB350 and Royal Enfield Hunter 350. Of these, the lighter 200s and 250s will feel more agile and have better fuel economy, while the heavier 350s won't feel as agile but will be a little more comfortable.
Another option worth taking a look at is the Hero Xpulse 210, which will be the most comfortable of all the bikes listed here. However, it won't be as agile owing to its large 21-inch front wheel, soft long-travel suspension and long wheelbase.
There are also some instances of engine issues being reported online, so it would be advisable to wait for some time before purchasing the Xpulse.
A test ride of these bikes should help you figure out which is the best option for you.
I am a 62-year-old man. I owned a CD100 SS (around 25 years ago) and have not ridden a motorcycle since then. I now want to go on an all-India motorcycle tour, including the Himalayan regions. Please suggest a suitable bike considering that I am a novice rider, want easy drivability (62 years), low maintenance and enough power for exploring the Himalayan regions.
