The Hero Duet is a unisex 110cc scooter positioned between the Pleasure and the Maestro Edge. It is one of the first new products developed independently by Hero MotoCorp since its split with long-time joint venture partner – Honda.
The Duet is being promoted as a family scooter. The metal body is beautifully moulded into a very modern and dynamic shape, which makes it one of the best-looking scooters in the segment. At the front, the headlamp and the turn signals have been integrated into a single unit on the handlebar, while the V-shaped chrome strip on the front apron adds a modest amount of bling. The black floorboard, seat and the grab rail contrasts beautifully with the funky paint schemes.
The Hero Duet is based on a new platform and is powered by a new 111cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine. This engine delivers 8bhp and 8Nm of torque through a CVT transmission. It gets telescopic suspension at the front and a spring-loaded hydraulic damper in the rear. The Duet rides on 10-inch metal wheels and 90/100 profile tubeless tyres. It comes with the innovative combi brakes, with drum brakes at both ends.
The Duet is available in six funky paint schemes – candy blazing red, pearl silver white, grace grey, matte vernier grey, nature green and panther black. It competes with other 110cc scooters like the Suzuki Let’s, Mahindra Gusto, TVS Jupiter and the Honda Activa-i.
