      • With Raid and Sjoba months away, Desert Storm is the next immediate rally.

        A team of top riders from various auto mag's should talk to Hero MotoCorp, to sponsor the team to race on Impulse.

        This will be the best real world test of the machine and its on and off road capabilities.

          • Loving a Hero MotoCorp commercial after ages! Lovely little video without going over the board!
            PS: A Karizma engine based Impulse would have still been better!

              • Finally , this is my chance to sell my Fiero Mx bike....

                this may be a fresh new 150cc alternative for a biker trying to stand out from the countless hordes of 150-180cc bikes, but now the Honda engine employed in the bike has become the most overused engine (after the 100cc sloper in various Hero Honda bikes)

                The same engine has done its duty in the frames of-
                Unicorn
                Achiever
                CBZ Extreme
                Hunk
                Unicorn Dazzler

                aaand now the Impulse,

                Hero should have atleast upped the displacement, or increased the torque ratings by some stretch.

                My fiero Mx

                I gun the throttle, the motorbike wails, the forks heave up, the revs climb, my view blurs, air gushes in my lid, muscles tighten, street lights streak. Just another day at work...

                  • Thank God finally some positiveness in the thread.

                    This looks like an honest bike ready to take on any terrain .The chassis ,suspension , rims , tires ,exhaust - everything seems to be built on purpose albeit if it had some more torque ( not bhp).

                    • ^^^ Quite surprising how people can go about bashing something without half knowing what its capable of. Though I can understand if its a pulsar. :P

                      You cant please them all.

                        Why don't you suggest your friend to sell the Fiero and buy this instead? A friend suggested me to do this instead of going for more cc on Fiero.

                          I wish we have a proper trail riding/off roading review on this bike and a comparison with rtr160/180 , p220 trying to do the same thing

                            Hi Nikhil,
                            I strongly believe this motorcycle will stand out from the group in the offroading arena...now searching for a place to test ride this in Pune

                              I hope it does. The TR given by the showrooms cannot establish whether this will be far better than regular bikes on trails.
