Competiton:
Hero Xtreme 200R competes with the likeness of Pulsar NS 200, Apache RTR 200 and Yamaha FZ 25. Amongst all, the toughest competitor is Apache RTR 200. As Apache offers a similar styling and a little more features, it is dominating the 200 CC market. The Pulsar NS 200 offers great value for money and performance for its asking price. On the other hand, Yamaha FZ 25 is a beast that is a good buy for traffic rides as well as touring bikes. However, it is expensive than the other three competitors which makes it a tough choice. The Xtreme 200R, despite offering fewer features than its competitor, might turn out to be a good success.
