                Pros & Cons

                • Pros
                • Cons
                • Bajaj Pulsar N125

                  • Looks: The N125’s design language is a fresh one and doesn’t look like any other Pulsar
                  • Lightness: 125kg kerb means the N125 feels super light, especially when riding through heavy traffic
                  • Smoothness: its engine is smooth, even at highway speeds
                  • Suspension: it’s very comfortable on bad roads too
                  • Price: undercuts both its chief rivals: the TVS Raider and the Hero Xtreme 125R

                  Hero Splendor Plus XTEC

                  • Exceptionally lively and fuel-efficient within urban areas
                  • The motorcycle remains stable while still being agile
                  • Feature-rich for a 100cc commuter
                • Bajaj Pulsar N125

                  • The front brake could’ve been a bit sharper
                  • It misses out on ABS, something even the Bajaj Platina 110 gets
                  • The finish levels and panel gaps could’ve been a bit better

                  Hero Splendor Plus XTEC

                  • The vibrations start creeping into the seat very early on
                  • There is room for improvement in the suspension tuning, especially when encountering sharp bumps
                  • The initial response from the front lever lacks the desired level of feedback

                  Nice owing
                  Nice and balanced overall. Bike weight is very good. Its never goes disbalanced. Mileage is 55 around, no matter where you drive and which kind of conditions are you driving on. Seats are a bit conjusted but driving experience is overall good. Suspensions works well on road. Perfect bike for daily commuting also.

                  THE BAJAJ PULSAR N 125
                  At the time of selection I was curious in selecting one I already had a 150 in my home. bajaj is so reliable. the model is so cunning with heavy fuel economy with just a standard price offering many specification. If you are a new rider the n125 can be the best for you. The seat is not so comfort whereas the steering balance is buttery smooth. easily managed, smooth clutch and a refined engine ..with the Bluetooth connectivity it is always as easy to ride never before Best version of the 125 segment even competitor for the ns125 with my experience it is best to buy the n125 with all these features with a standard pricing leaving some of the features like tachometer, abs, gear indicator,switch lights..rest is worth for money

                  Rider experience.
                  The bike is just unique feels different outstands the other boring similar designed bikes really proud 💪👌. The seat's stiff but trust me it can be handled with no problem. And it preety much handles the city traffic situation very smoothly. Would recommend more bikes like this and more upgrades...

                  splendor is the first choice of every indian middle class family.
                  After owning this bike for than 3 years , I feel that its very good about mileage, comfort, and riding posture . It's a very low maintenance bike , service costs are also very low. If you get full tank petrol in this bike you don't have get petrol for 1 month it take out a massive mileage. In India this bike is first choice for the middle class families. I also own this bike and doesn't have any complaint about it.

                  Everyday Reliability with Hero Splendor Plus XTEC
                  A friend’s night ride idea made me plan the same, and it actually felt nice. This bike handles city roads calmly, doesn’t feel tiring, and keeps short trips easy. Weekend outings feel more relaxed, and even small store runs stay smooth. We wanted something steady for city lanes and small weekend plans. This bike feels comfortable and doesn’t trouble you in traffic. Quick turns, short breaks, and small detours all feel natural. Good for couples who like short peaceful rides. Great option for people who want a practical ride for daily movement. Works well in tight streets and doesn’t feel annoying on short trips. Weekend outings stay simple, and every ride feels manageable without extra effort or stress.
