Hero Xpulse sem representação em PT

Como podem verificar, a marca HERO não tem qualquer representação em Portugal... e não consigo perceber porquê pois este modelo é um sucesso de vendas em todos os países representados. E a mota está muito bem construida, pois é proveniente de uma parceria com a Honda.

Newest 250 Dual bike, is it good?

Any rider that has this bike and can give a small review about the bike?

Is it good compared to other bikes like the vogue 300 rally or crf300l? Thanks

450MT Exhaust Valve Issue on Pre-June 2024 Models – Any EU Owners Affected?

Hi everyone!

I've seen several references to chronic issues related to the exhaust valves, which reportedly start making a ticking or tapping noise on models produced up to June 2024. Has anyone here experienced this issue or knows of any cases?

As far as I understand, there was a recall in Mexico that involved replacing the cylinder head. Since I can hear a noticeable "tick-tick" noise on my bike, which was manufactured in April 2024, I'm a bit concerned.

I'm not sure whether the units sold here in Europe are affected by the same issue, especially since, to the best of my knowledge, there hasn't been any recall here.

I'm wondering whether I should make a warranty claim and ask the dealer to investigate it, or if this noise is considered normal for this model.

I'd really appreciate any feedback or experiences you can share.

Thanks in advance!

Almost Lost My Neo 2 on Day One – Need Recovery Tips

So, I have a couple of questions regarding the Neo 2's safety and recovery features.

I've been a DJI user since the Phantom days and already own several higher-end DJI drones. I decided to get this little gem because of its simplicity and portability, mainly to use on some motorcycle rides.

I got it yesterday and took it out for its first flight. Well... first flight, first crash! 😅

To be honest, I almost gave up trying to find the drone because I simply couldn't locate it.

While I was using the "Find My Drone" feature in the app, I was getting a weak signal, even when I was 5 meters away froim it but I wasn't able to reconnect to the drone. Why would that happen? My goal was to reconnect and make the drone beep, which would have made it much easier to locate by sound. Instead, it was really frustrating.

In situations like this, is there a better or more reliable way to recover the drone? Relying solely on the app seems to make finding it quite difficult, especially if it lands in bushes or tall grass.

Luckily, I managed to spot it just before giving up. It had crashed into some bushes. After reviewing the footage, I could see exactly what had happened, but before finding it, I was honestly starting to think it had flown away.

Any tips from more experienced Neo 2 users would be greatly appreciated.

CFMOTO 450MT Missing Bluetooth/GPS Module – What Do I Need to Restore It?

I've been looking for a used CFMOTO 450MT and found one locally at a good price. However, it appears to be missing the Bluetooth/GPS module, so the bike doesn't have CarPlay functionality or the ability to receive certain firmware updates.

If I decide to buy this bike, does anyone know which module(s) I would need to purchase to restore these Bluetooth/GPS features to factory spec? Also, roughly how much would it cost here in Europe?

Thanks in advance!

XR650L Windscreen on a NX650? It fits!!

So I’ve been looking for an original NX650 windscreen, but they’re so crazy expensive that I refused to buy one. Then I found this windscreen on AliExpress for the XR650 for 30 euros and decided to take my chances.

Guess what? It fits!!!

It actually works really well. The only minor issue is that it produces a small high-pitched noise while riding, so I need to see what I can do to solve that 😉

Just wanted to share my experience with this mod. Hope it will be useful for anyone who has the same problem I had.

Thanks!

Sym HD300 valor?

Tenho esta Sym para venda, mas ainda não estou totalmente certo do valor mais justo para ela. Gostaria de a vender por pelo menos 2500€, pois a mota está realmente muito estimada e praticamente como nova.

Sei que não tem o mesmo valor de mercado de uma japonesa, mas a verdade é que estas Sym têm demonstrado uma fiabilidade incrível e uma qualidade de construção bastante acima da média, muito próxima das japonesas.

Na vossa opinião, qual acham que seria um valor justo para ela?

Obrigado desde já pela atenção.

Honda Jazz catalizador roubado, sensor O2 em falta…

Depois de roubarem o catalizador, mandei reparar com um catalizador aftermarket não original. Porém o totó do mecânico não fez uma boa reparação e agora tenho a luz EML acessa. Espreitei por baixo e reparei que um dos sensores falta, sei que existem dois, um antes e outro depois do catalizador.

Alguma possibilidade de abrir o buraco para instalar o que falta? O que fariam nesta situação?

Obrigado desde já.

My dual sport 🐎🙏

This is my latest dual-sport motorcycle. I’ve had several different bikes over the past few years, including both modern and older motorcycles. I’ve owned a CRF300, a Honda Transalp 600, a Royal Enfield Himalayan, Vespas, a Honda SLR 650, a 1992 Honda NX250, a Honda Monkey, and many others.

Now, this Honda NX650 has always been one of the bikes I wanted to own. And I can honestly say that it offers incredible value for money. The engine feels like a tractor — full of torque and strength — comfortable, and overall a great machine.

The only slightly negative aspect is that it’s very touchy and a bit nervous on the throttle. As soon as I twist the throttle, it takes off immediately, and as soon as I roll off, it decelerates almost as if it had brakes applied. It’s difficult to maintain a certain smoothness while riding.

However, it’s something you get used to. It may also be related to running slightly richer in the combustion setup, and I’m still trying to fine-tune it so the combustion becomes a bit more balanced. The spark plug currently appears darker rather than tan, which suggests it may indeed be running rich.

Still, this is a bike I found with very low mileage and in excellent condition, and I hope to keep preserving it for many years to come.

I’ve also left a few pictures here.

Does anyone knows why my carb is loosing some gas?

Does anyone knows why am I losing some gas from this part of the carb time to time? It’s not always… it’s just sometimes some drops. Thanks

Just got it, love it! It’s a beast of a motorcycle. Coming from the NX250, this beauty is a powerhouse, a truly wonderful machine. It runs amazing, with only 30K on the clock. No engine noises, no knocking, nothing. Smooth like it’s brand new.
