I have had this bike for almost 10 years and still runs great on Indian roads( one of worst roads of all time), it was the first and the ONLY 135CC bike hero has ever released
Nowadays the bike selling range is down to either 125cc or 150cc you have to no "Middle ground" bikes like ambition mainly because most of the Indians are cheap and do not care about the quality so ambition didn't really hit the demographic hero/honda wanted to.
the only real problem I have with this bike is that its spare parts are not available when you freaking need them because it was discontinued so quickly.
These are the list of items I had trouble finding the most: -
The Speedometer assembly: I couldn't get the right color when my speedometer case was broken so I passed because it was still working and I couldn't find one when it stopped working till now 2013 they're making an on-demand supply for speedometer cases.
Gear cableSeriously I had to tamper some other motorcycle's gear cable because I couldn't find the one for this bike.
The chain cover: Yeah its easy to say "Oh its just a chain cover" well this bike doesn't have waterproof chains so the cover is important and its not readily available you'd have to screw around to see if you can find one.
The Petrol tank: If you're unlucky enough to get your petrol tank broken then you're just out of luck you'd just have to deal with an ugly welding job( lucky for me it was just a dent) but still I hardly doubt you can find one.
Its the only 135cc bike honda has ever released and now they don't even bother with the middle market because 125cc bikes cost around 45k.
