Trending Questions on Hero MotoCorp Bikes - Answered by Autocar Experts
I am looking for a good-looking, rough and tough bike, mostly with an adventure look, that offers the best mileage, good torque, and a long seat for family usage too, mainly for city riding, under โน2 lakh.
I am considering buying a bike mainly for city usage of around 16 km a day. I rarely ride on the highway, and this will be my first bike. I am 6 feet tall, and comfort and performance are my priorities. My budget is โน2.5-2.8 lakh on-road (Hyderabad). I am considering the RTX 300, but since it is a new bike and my usage is mostly in the city, I am confused.
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 have a 20 km one-way commute, and I wish to get a bike instead of a car for two reasons: first, the Mumbai traffic, and second, because a bike gives better mileage. My travel time takes approximately 1-1.5 hours. Which bike do you suggest that offers great ride comfort and decent mileage?
Since you have a pretty long commute and fuel efficiency is your priority, you should be looking at either a 125cc or a 150/160cc commuter motorcycle.
In the former category, options like the TVS Raider, Hero Super Splendor / Glamour / Xtreme 125R and Honda Shine / SP125 / CB125 Hornet are bikes you should be considering. Do bear in mind that some of these are simple, no-nonsense commuters with more traditional seating positions, and some are feature-rich, snazzy-looking options - pick the one you think will suit you better.
In the latter category, you should be considering Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Suzuki Gixxer, Yamaha FZ models and Honda Unicorn / SP160. Over here, the Yamaha and Honda bikes are slightly less powerful and have better fuel economy, while the other three are slightly sportier.
In general, the 125cc bikes will be more fuel efficient and more affordable to purchase, while the 150/160s will be less so in both regards. However, if you spend a lot of time at fast highway speeds, then going for a larger machine will make sense because it will feel more relaxed at higher speeds.
A test ride will help you decide which bike is the best fit 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.
Take a test ride of these bikes so you can decide which is a better fit for you.
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.
