I've completed my 4th free service at 11721km
Main issue is pick-up at 1st and 2nd gear while giving acceleration vehicle is not responding , I thought it was air filter issue or Spark plug issue but it was Relay
Anyway I'll attach the 4th service bill
I've been on the fence about buying an Xpulse 210. I had already booked a brand-new one for ₹2,14,700 and waited around 10 days. I already own a Himalayan 450, so this would be my second bike.
What kept bothering me were all the reports about the early Xpulse 210 issues—engine tappet noise, stalling, and a few other reliability complaints. I spent a lot of time reading forums, watching YouTube videos, and checking owner feedback.
At the same time, I was browsing OLX and came across a used Xpulse 210. It's a 2025 model (October manufactured) with 11,500 km on the odometer.
I spoke to the owner in detail and asked specifically about any engine or reliability issues. He showed me the complete service history. The bike had completed all four scheduled services, and there were no major engine repairs or warranty claims—just regular maintenance.
The asking price on OLX was ₹1.65 lakh. After negotiating, I brought it down to ₹1.51 lakh and finally bought it.
I'll attach the photos below. What do you guys think? Was ₹1.51 lakh for a 2025 Xpulse 210 with 11.5k km a good deal, a fair deal, or should I have negotiated further?
Need a quick suggestion:
I've found a 2026 March Hero Xpulse 210 in Alpine Silver, ridden 2,656 km, and the owner is asking ₹1,70,000.
Is this a good price, or should I skip it? Looking for quick advice from those with experience.
I've been double-minded for the past 6 months while owning a Himalayan 450. After a lot of thinking, I've finally booked an Xpulse 210.
The main reason is that I struggle with the H450's weight and maneuverability in city traffic. I'm hoping the lighter Xpulse 210 will be much easier to handle in traffic and more enjoyable on off-road trails as well.
For those who already own an Xpulse 210, I need some suggestions:
What all should I inspect during delivery?
What are the common issues I should check before taking the bike home?
Any PDI (Pre-Delivery Inspection) checklist recommendations?
What is the ideal break-in/running-in procedure for the first 500 km?
Any dos and don'ts for engine longevity and reliability?
Looking forward to hearing from experienced Xpulse owners. Thanks in advance! 👍🏍️

Kudremukh trip from Coimbatore
I am seeking information on the 2026 Xp210 model. Despite reported issues in previous production batches, there are claims that upcoming batches will address these concerns. I would greatly appreciate honest suggestions and feedback from anyone who has recently acquired an Xp210.
Had XP100 fuel ⛽ and rode to munnar totally 360km
Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 Tyre Valve Change Experience
Recently got the tyre valves changed on my Himalayan 450, and honestly, sourcing the parts was the hardest part of the process. 🛠️
Living in Coimbatore, these specific tyre valves are extremely hard to find locally. I had to travel all the way to Tiruppur just to get them. The valves themselves cost around ₹500 for both front and rear, but the travel expense alone came to ₹800, and fitting charges were another ₹600.
Total damage: around ₹1400 just for changing both tyre valves. 😅
I've installed new updated side stand for my Qaswalayan the price is 3300₹
I went for 4th service of my H450 but I saw this bike , can anyone say what had happened to this...?
They added new accessible tyre valve to get tyre air easily
Did a few mods on my H450 to bring out its true potential.
Pros:
-Throttle response is way sharper
-Low-end torque is insane in city traffic
-Hardly need to downshift anymore
-Fan almost never kicks in, even in traffic
Cons:
-Mileage dropped by ~1–2 km/l
Feels more refined than faster — but definitely more fun to ride.
