Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience
Hey guys...
Have been following this thread since I thought of buying an Impulse in last October. Rich in information related to the bike. Also the experiences shared by the riders are very helpful in understanding the machine more.
Have been using my Impulse since Nov 2015 with lots of ups and downs.
One of them being the Carb Slide Jamming issue. Has anyone found any permanent solution for that..???
Also my tyres have started showing minor cracks all over yet the bike was bought in Nov 2015. Contacted Ceat Customer care and they ruled out the replacement option as they say the tyres were manufactured in Apr 2011 and hence out of their warranty period of 3 years.
Contacted the dealer and he is just giving fake commitments that he will help me in getting the tyres replaced at no cost. This is going on since more than a month. Complained on Hero Customer Care but in vain.
Any suggestion from you guys will be of great help.
Thanks,
Nishit

Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience
you will have to look for it from the left side of the vehicle.Originally posted by sancreation View PostGuys can anyone tell me where is the afr screw located on carburettor.
I would go for reboring rather than transplant.Originally posted by Dhruva Krishna View PostHey guys zma transplant vs reboring on the impulse. Which is more preferable and logical ?
Any thoughts highly appreciated

Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience
That's really good to hear sanketOriginally posted by Sanket_R15 View PostHi Dhruva,
I have got it supersized to accomodate zma piston, and few other parts have also been replaced, like rockers, cam, crank, carb etc. accordingly. Technically my bike has become 200cc. Cant really explain in detail. There is a proper methamatical formula that is followed while this process. Perhaps I can get a written explainaton fromy mechanic and share some time later.
I havent really cared about the FE even when I had apache rtr piston installed (technically 180cc). So even now I hardly notice. But using rough observation i guess i am easily getting over 35kmpl.
and more details would be appreciated.

Hey sanket , I know I'm quite late to join this thread but could you please elaborate on the mods you have done on your bike , I am eager to try out the rebore and how did it hurt the fuel efficiency ? Please do reply. Thanks in advance

ZMA engine swap is an option but I am not really bug fan as it adds on some weight to the bike. Rather I am using the zma piston and carb with supersized block currently. Delivers good amount of torque and the bike is swift, equivalent to zma.

In my opinion the hassle is not worth the benefit. If you really want FI, try sticking a ZMA engine on impulse, but I am not sure if the latest ZMA engine mounting will match impulse, earlier (carb version) was simple AFAIK.
