Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience

hi everybody.
having an issue with my impulse lately.
apart from the tick-tick noise that most of us hear on rough roads, there is some other noise (khat-khat) coming from the front, whenever i bump into some potholes. any ideas?

Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience

Dear friends,

This is vijay from Bangalore i was planing to buy a new bike for myself and was searching online and visited many showrooms looking for a good bike because currently i am have Honda Unicorn so was looking for a similar good bike. after reading some reviews online about Hero Impulse i came across xBHP and started reading all the posts and your experiences i started reading everyday and i kept coming back till the last page and finally decided to buy the Hero Impulse and thanks to some of the friends here who suggested Sai Motors Bangalore where they are giving 10,000 rs discount compared to other Hero showrooms in Bangalore, i will be getting the bike by this weekend and again i would like to thank all the members here for sharing there experiences, posting some great pictures and videos.

Wish you all a safe riding,

Regards,
Vijay.

remove the ropes.......... plz use nut and bolt and also add an extra nut n jamm ( chuk nut) it so dat it doesnt get loose.

if dat stil doesn work u can put 2 holes on either side in dat wheel hugger like how i have done n add more 2 small bolts so dat it fits firm.

(i have used a very thin bolt n nut in the top section where u can see a washer also, so stil shaking. need to put a little bit biger one so dat it fits tight.)

Happy Riding...

Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience

I too hav done the same mod. The ropes used are killing the looks of the bike. Drill in a extra hole and add an additional nut and bolt. The bolt need to be thin. I did it with three bolts only and its still very stable.

Incase u dont have a drill, heat up a thin bolt and pierce it through the mudguard to make the hole

Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience

Sure, lets meet this saturday at sai motors at around 2pm. I'll probably be going to JC road for my lid and then on to sai motors (where I dream that I will get same day delivery!!).

So how will I recognize you? Will you be wearing a rose on your lapel? Lets make the code word: Kala gulab!! No but seriously speaking, PM me your number so we can sync later.

Thanks.
