Colour options
The design may be subjective, but one thing is not. However, the brand new XPulse 200T 4V looks sportier than ever, thanks to a two-tone paint scheme. The motorcycle features a small fly screen on the prominent LED headlamp.
It will be available in three colour options – Sports Red, Matt Funk Lime Yellow, and Matt Shield Gold. The rear trail rack gets substituted by a tubular grab rail. At the same time, the side panels, alloy design and seat similar to the stepped seat are retained.
Competitors
As far as competition goes, the new Hero XPulse 200T 4V will go head-on against the Keeway SR125, Honda CB 200X, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V and the Honda XBlade.
