Hero MotoCorp- India's leading two-wheeler manufacturer has raised the price of its product range by 0.5 percent to counterbalance the rising input cost. The festive season is near and the increment in prices can affect the sales of a company. However, this small hike of 0.5 percent will surely not disturb the performance of Hero products during the period. In September, company had sold more than 6 lakh vehicles and the number is expected to increase further this month due to Diwali.
To celebrate the occasion, Hero has also launched 2 new motorcycles- Splendor Pro Classic and Passion Pro TR. The 2 special models are based on company's best selling products. These new offerings have a limited group of audience, however, they will help the company to perform better in the festive season.
The new Hero Splendor Pro Classic is a cafe racer version of the standard Splendor Pro, which has been priced at Rs. 48,650 (ex-showroom, Delhi). The bike features classic round headlight, instrument console, tail lamp and indicator lamps, sporty handle bars, vintage style graphics, chrome finish metal parts and the most important single seat with vintage style cafe cowl. It sports the same 97.2cc, 4-stroke, single-cylinder engine, which powers the entire Hero commuter range. However, compression ratio has been increased to deliver increased power output of 8.25bhp at 8,000rpm, while the torque output remains similar with 8.05Nm coming at 5,000rpm.
The new Hero Passion Pro TR is an on/off road version of the regular Passion Pro, which gets some additional features like headlight grill, handle bar with crossbar, knuckle guards, new graphics, knee pads on fuel tank, high front fender with tyre hugger, engine bash plate, special tyre treads and a front disc brake standard. Specifications of the bike are similar to the standard model and it has been priced at Rs. 51,550 (ex-showroom, Delhi).

Hero Ignitor User Reviews
- Comfoftable and stylesMy uncle have this bike since 2021 and it's too nice and comfortable to ride but I don't like the one thing that's the mileage. It's light weight and easy to ride. The handling is also smooth. I first ride this bike when I was only twelve years old. As a beginner,it's very nice to ride. Moreover, the sound is also less.Read More

- Hero IgniterHero Igniter My Black Ignitor, owned on Jan. 2014 at RS 58,000. HERO IGNITOR is good bike from the Hero. It is a replica of Honda stunner. The 125cc engine is enough to produce sufficient amount of thrust, with one cylinder it puts up 11bhp at 8000rpm, comes with AIR cooled cooling system. Mated to 5 gears easy shift and has good pickup. The weight is approx 129 kg makes it lightweight and easily accessible. Fuel tank capacity is up to 9 liters which is quite less for this bike. Hero Ignitor has very good suspension system makes it comfortable but seats are very unpleasant especially pillion one. The only problem i had is regarding its services and bike parts. From last 2 months i am trying to search bike parts but failed every time even bike dealers does not having parts available at their spare parts section. Final verdict- Looks are not good, you will face problems related to its parts. In 125cc segment it is okay. Only meant for youth not for everyone.Read More
- Hero IgniterHero Igniter I have Hero igniter and i owned this bike 1 year back, it is a replica of Honda stunner. As Hero igniter flaunts aggressive looks but i personally did not like its handling. It is offered with 125cc engine which is not enough for this bike, this bike needs more powerful engine and amount power generated is very low according to its body style, its engine mated to 5-speed gearbox that is a plus point of this bike. The company claims that igniter generates mileage of 72 kmpl but in real it fails to do so and company could have increase its fuel capacity a little bit, its fuel tank capacity is very low. moreover, its maintenance cost is not so much. On the account of safety, this bike is equipped with an anti-lock braking system that enhances its braking capacity and makes it one step ahead of Honda stunner. It has split seats are not so comfortable but its suspension system is quite good in design to overcome all road bumps. This bike is not meant for Age group only limited age group will purchase.Read More
