The 2023 Hero Splendor Plus continues its reign as one of India’s most reliable and best-selling commuter motorcycles. With over 25 years in the market, the Splendor has garnered a massive following, known for its affordability, reliability, and exceptional fuel efficiency. The introduction of the XTEC variant, priced at ₹83,461 (ex-showroom), brings in modern features like front disc brakes and Bluetooth connectivity, ensuring that the Splendor keeps up with the times​.

 

The Splendor Plus has maintained its classic, no-nonsense design over the years, with minor tweaks to keep it relevant. The XTEC variant brings a more premium feel with alloy wheels, a digital instrument cluster, and i3S technology for start-stop functionality. It is offered in multiple color options such as Black Sparkling Blue, Black Tornado Grey, and Red Black.

    Kick Start Drum Brake Alloy Wheel(Petrol)
    Comming to splendor it's a bike which requires the very least maintenance. I hardly even change its oil for months or even service it. It's engines hardly ever breaks down and the mileage is around 80kmpl/hour. The service parts are easily available in any bike shops and tyres are also easily serviceable. This bike can go through any kind of traffic and also poth holes without damages. In winter it's a little difficult to start but you can always use the choke or try several times. The handle design is perfect for mobile holders and the rod at back of the seat is perfect for helmet locks. If you are delivery boy or office personal who needs to use GPS and lock helmet frequently this bike is having good structure and compatibility with latest mobile holders and helmet locks. You can also add anti fuel thieft lock below the fuel tank or add extra horns and usb connection with the battery for charging mobile. The fuel tank height is perfect for comfortable riding and you can add a leather puch to hold documents like bike puc and papers in it. The only drawback of owning this bike is it's a bad choice for intercity travel. Otherwise inside city use it's good. Perfect bike for Engineering students who want to save a lot of pocket money in repairs as it hardly needs maintenance compared to new generation bikes.

    Kick Start Drum Brake Alloy Wheel(Petrol)
    This is for all who are not happy with the high speed or getting low mileage at high speed. Please mind that the bike delivers a very good mileage at speed in between 40 to 50km/hr. And sometimes it delivers around 90 km /lt. Don't ride the bike or race the bike like power bike. You have to compromise one for other. If you want mileage then you have to drive at 40 or other wise you will loose the mileage. And if someone says that the bike sound increase above 65 then my dear you have chosen the wrong product. If your driving habit is like this then you go for higher segment.otherwise it is value for money. Very descent, good looking,high mileage, low maintenance bike is splendour. Mind it. The bike is there in the market from last 25 years. And still it will stay like this. The build in quality is very good. I had used the bike for 17years and sell it for 16000 . It has done 85k KMS and still no problem with any part of the bike.Even the new buyer is also happy.
