      City ride with Hf deluxe
      I chose the HF Deluxe because it is known for reliability, low maintenance cost, and excellent fuel efficiency, which suits daily commuting needs. Being a product from Hero MotoCorp, it also gives confidence in terms of service network and resale value. The ride so far has been quite smooth and comfortable for city use. The seat is well cushioned and the suspension handles rough roads decently. Mileage is a strong point easily giving around 65 to 70 km per litre which makes it very economical. The bike is lightweight so handling is easy especially in traffic, However speed and power are limited it is not built for aggressive riding On highways it performs okay at moderate speeds 50 to 70 km per hour but feels slightly underpowered if you try to push beyond that. Yes I would definitely recommend this bike to anyone looking for a budget friendly low maintenance daily commuter especially for city rides rather than long highway touring and for office use daily updow

      Basic Features
      I have been riding my Hero HF Deluxe (2012 Model) for over 13 years now. Even after so much time, the engine is still very reliable and the maintenance cost is extremely low. It is the best bike for daily rough use and still provides great fuel efficiency. Pros:Excellent Mileage: Even after 13 years, it gives amazing mileage on the road. Low Maintenance: Spare parts are cheap and easily available everywhere. Durability: The build quality is very strong; it handles rough roads easily.Engine: Hero's 100cc engine is still smooth and starts in one kick. Cons:Basic Features: It lacks modern features like a digital meter or disc brakes. High Speed: The bike vibrates a bit when crossing 60-70 kmph.

      Perfect bike for daily commuters
      I had to ride daily 50 kms, so I needed a bike with good mileage, The Hero HF deluxe provided me that feature. Also, the price range of the vehicle was very affordable compared to other motorcycles in the same group. Perfect bike for daily commuters. The ride is very comfortable, It can easily reach a speed of 100 km/hr. on highways and have no vibrations at that speed. The handling is very easy. The seats are comfortable and can easily seat two people. Very comfortable ride. I would recommend this bike for its mileage, comfort, handling, safety and affordability. Perfect bike for middle income group for daily commuting. Also its i3S feature helps to save oil during traffic.

      Honest review without lies. Tried and tested 15yrs
      It was a good experience, purchased from bajaj showroom. Wonderful riding experience. Still in a condition to ride more. Has never made me push the bike mid highway. No accident just one person riding with care. Current average is around 22-25. Service is been local, however parts update has been original.

      Bajaj Pulsar 180 cc (2017 Model)
      Good balanced bike for a First purchase. It has the required power and quick manoeuvres for a city ride. Mileage is around 38-45, depending on the traffic and road condition. Headlight was a little weak, so replaced with a stronger power headlight. The overall experience has been good with this bike.

      mileage and speed
      This bike gives an average mileage of 32-33. The reason for the low mileage is due to the double ignition system, but very good performance. The pickup and speed are also too good. The looks are also good.
