Hero Super Splendor Review: First Ride

With a new design, better features and added power, the new Hero Super Splendor looks set to continue its reign as the number one selling motorcycle in India.

It’s been quite some time since the world’s largest two-wheeler manufacturer updated its 100-125cc model segment. But, now, they have just launched three new models. The newest addition to their lineup is the updated 125cc Super Splendor.

The engine also feels a lot more refined and it also performs well under the tension of high revs. There are no vibrations felt at all, which is quite impressive.

I got to ride the Splendor on some urban roads and some very bad broken roads around Delhi. I have to admit though that the suspension setup on the bike is very good and I was very impressed with it.
