1. Design & Features
The new Hero XPulse 200 4 Valve retains the same dimenstions, but gets new dual-tone colours, and graphics. Kerb weight has increased by 1 kg, and seat height by 2 mm. The LED headlight now offers 20 per cent better illumination, an area where the two-valve XPulse 200 lacked in.
