Affordable ADV tourer

-

The XPulse carries forward the legacy of the popular 150cc Impulse which, at its time, was the only option for an affordable off-road focused motorcycle­s. The XPulse builds upon that concept and integrates changes that bring it up-to-date with modern trends like LED headlamps and a digital dash that integrates smartphone connectivi­ty via Bluetooth for navigation display. The XPulse borrows the 200cc air-cooled motor from the recently unveiled Xtreme 200R and produces an identical 18.4bhp and 17.1Nm of torque. The front wheel is a 21-inch unit to tackle the biggest of potholes in the city and challengin­g terrain on trails. Together with the 18-inch rear wheel shod with dual purpose tyres, long-travel suspension and 220mm ground clearance, the XPulse will easily handle offroad touring duties while the low seat height will also make it easy to commute on.
