Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience
I have run around 300km with k&n, but 9350 on the odo, I'm happy to plonk back the stock filter, feels smooth and relaxed like before, when i had k&n installed i used to get starting problems, hiccup while full throttle, engine overheating, low mileage, black smoke in exhaust, and rpm would shutter at 7-8k felling like fuel about to run out. And worst of all i was unable to climb Nandhi hills where mopeds used to over take me.😂

Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience
Last thing i would plonk in my bike would be a K&N. These cotton gauge type filters are nice in air flow & free but poor in terms of air filtration thus letting in tiny debris damaging valves and liners. Neither good is the stock paper type and so foam has been the best of the two worlds for me. Stock paper type is restrictive choking the breath of the stock mill.Originally posted by sancreation View Post
As per rpms 10k is just enough. How much on the ODO btw?
Do mention the ODO reading it speaks a lot. [emoji16]Leave a comment:

You can try Rehan bhai's workshop, its in front of Select City. He is himself a motocrosser and he owns Impulse, and have done many mod jobs out there.
Here is the address:
Rehan Racing Plaza

He is good.Leave a comment:

Hi Sanket,Originally posted by Sanket_R15 View Post
I am quite keen to understand how this mod was done. Also, since you are in Delhi, would it be too much to ask for the details of mechanic who did this job for you (unless you did it yourself !).
If it was indeed a mechanic who did the job, did he procure the parts or did you do it yourself?
also,
1) How much did the entire job cost you (Cost and Labor) ?
2) Any issues since the mod ?
Cheers,

Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience

Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience
I doubt if new Impulse with a bigger mill (usually talked of that of Zma) will be around anytime soon. Our likings don't shape our reality and thus not our heartily desires will shape the market. I think these are rumours fuelled by some auto firms just to get the news rolling around. I'd love it to come too but it won't anytime soon.Originally posted by Pique242 View Post
Anyways.... as for karizma engined Impulse you're thinking of buying of, go for it if the condition is good. And no such thing as frame cracking or bending happens.Leave a comment:

[MENTION=17979]Ankit[/MENTION]ville
there are reports Hero if going to launch 200 or 250cc version of impulse. What's your view on this?
My 2nd question- I'm thinking of buying 1 impulse fitted with 250cc karizma engine. It's costing me 47k. Some of my experts friends suggested that not to go for it coz it can make chassis crack after sometime leading to risky situations. I really loved the feel and power of the bike on the highway. What's your view on this.
P.S. I really love impulse. Please help. Your opinion matters to me.Leave a comment:
