    nice points brother but your friend's bike isn't India's first Impulse..here in Delhi i know at least two Impulse which already got delivered before festive week of Diwali.

    Are u sure those 2 bikes were handed over to the owners? My friend's Impulse is not even registered yet as Hero honda has still not given out the final price to dealers.

    Any idea about the sizes of sprockets used?

    EDIT: Any information on real offroad skills?...will the bike handle the thrashing?
    Srry, no idea about the sprockets. I

    We will take it off-roads nxt weekend. We can check the off-road performance then. For now, looking at the amazing ground clearance and the solid build, it looks like a good off-roader.

The impulse is almost the same in terms of weight may be 5 kgs lesser (overdrive has mentioned in their review in mag that the weight is 130kgs). Hence I felt the bike not to be light when I sat on it or was trying to move it. May be riding the same could prove to be a different experience in terms of weight.

    @riot - which color did your friend pick up?

          Well, I don't think they were really attracted. It happens with all new different looking bikes until they become a common sight on roads. I remember when I was taking delivery of my Pulsar 200, everybody was staring at my bike too (at that time, P150/180 didn't look similar to P200) but now, nobody cares

            here are the pics, i couldnt shoot much pics as my phone ran out of charge (all thanks to playing NOVA 2 all night ).

            We will be taking her for a small off-road trip out of Delhi (place still not decided) and later this year she will be going to spiti valley. Currently she is in her run-in period.

            • @riot Do give a first impression sort of a ride report on this.
              Imperfect human knowledge may be a bumpy, pot-holed street but its the only road to wisdom worth taking . . .

              • @riot...thanks for the pics and awaiting a review on your experience both on/off roading. Also with a open & higher front mud guard does water splash inward on to the engine and may be dirty your pants when riding on water / slush? If possible test that as well.

                        • First look on this bike, I though Hero is out of its mind,

                          the main reason was,

                          Where and when will a common Indian biker do off-roading?

                          But I got my answer after the recent rain showers at Chennai,

                          Every road has transformed itself to OFF-ROAD, we need something like the Impulse to survive.

                              • This is my next bike before I hit Ladakh. A simple question tho, I did not get time to read the specs, but is this bike:

                                1. PGMFi?
                                2. Tubeless tires (I know spokes are there)
                                3. Max speed

                                Anyone there who can help me in this query?
