    He seems to have a thing for Hero Splendors

    A 34-year-old thief from Pune has been nabbed by the police for stealing a whopping 17 bikes over the past six months. In a video released by a news outlet, we can see the thief with the entire lineup of bikes he stole. 

    Interestingly, all the bikes behind him are Hero bikes. While there’s one Hero Passion and a Hero HF Deluxe to be seen, the others are all Hero Splendor Plus bikes. Looks like there’s a craze for Splendors even among thieves as sky high fuel costs have truly spared none. 

    The report says that he did all this to fund his drinking habit. Addiction really is a monster; it lives inside and feeds off of you, takes from you, controls you, and destroys you. It is, hence, good that we’re only addicted to motorcycles, because that only compels us to bring the latest news from the motorcycling world to you. 

    In related news, Hero recently launched the Xoom. The scooter boasts of sporty looks, a slew of features and more!

      Splendor is a good bike for daily commuters as it delivers a good mileage and smooth performance. In one word, a buget king or mileage king. Moreover maintainance is also low, parts are easily available in market. I will recommend this bike for all the office commuter as well as for local users. Overall nice bike.
