no one use bluetooth on motorcycle as of now. Just a useless tech

Bluetooth & CONNECT Tech are two different things. Bluetooth enabled Meter Console is available as standard feature across the variants, for Call & Message alerts. CONNECT tech is something which enables push alerts to users related to Theft, Towing, Battery Removal, Accident, Topple, SOS etc. along with some GPS related features like Live location, Geo Fencing & some other features like Remote Immobilization, Rider Score, Ride History etc. For all these features, there is a separate Telematics Control Unit and a dedicated Hero App.

We still think it's a gimmick that majority of the audience will never actually use and if Hero thought it was that important it could have been available with the pro model.

I totally agree with you about the rear section, especially the pilloin riders seat, reminds me of th yamaha v2, curved upwards and not comfortable at all

However the styling from the front is quite attractive.

His views are bit harsh on Hero and overall the work they've put. Is it colonial impact of reviewer reg Indian OEM? I feel so {Do note Top Gear India is child of Top Gear which is again BBC owned} If it could've been Honda or even European OEM the reviewer would have bragging about everything every time

@TopGearMagIndia Жыл бұрын

On the contrary Gavin is a Hero fanboy and absolutely loves his Xpulse 200 4V. That being said his reviews are unbiased. Also we're all proud Indians here at TopGear India and call a spade a spade.

@adityandesh Жыл бұрын

@@TopGearMagIndia Well, there are so many points to put fingers on- and the very big one being the tone of video overall. Is it unbiased? Ofcourse not! Look at other channels and their review of same bike. Also look at engagement you are getting for this in terms of view count and many such metrics. Indians now understand how some people use such propoganda of not giving full credit for Indian made products. So request not to mix up things of product vs any prefixed intention from your side

If they want to beat Pulsar N160 they should go with Dual Channel ABS but they did one thing good that is USD froks. I hope they will add Dual channel ABS. But afterall it looks very good.

@TopGearMagIndia Жыл бұрын

Although dual channel ABS is a good safety net...we don't think the Hero Xtreme 160R 4V needs dual channel ABS as the gripy tires do a good job.

Apologies. The event concluded by 11 PM and we woke up at 4 am and had been shooting all day in the heat. That's probably why I look as exhausted. Plus if you notice the sun is right in my face and I can barely keep my eyes open. 😂
