I have been using this bike since 2005. I bought this bike on 22 july 2005 and in the great flood of mumbai i.e. on 26 july 2005 my new i.e only two days old bike was under water for more than three days. that was sadest day of my life cause I lost my everything in that flood and my new bike was looking as it was 10 years old, full of mud and lost every sign of its newness. my friend suggested me not to start the bike and take it to service center. as there were so much rush I had no option to hand over my bike to the local mechanic, luckily by my friend suggestion I found one mechanik who is working with hero honda's creative authorized dealer. he took the bike and suggested me to overhauling of the bike which I was novice, I did. everyone my friends my relatives suggested me to sell this bike as it was under water for more than 3 days, but my honesty didn't allow me hide the fact that it was drown under water, and I really loved my passion plus now in its seventh year after 2005 still my bike starts in one kick, the look of the bike is still (not like new one) but good, recently I replaced the rear tyre, and I found its grip has been improved on the road. and very much important that it still gives good mileage, as I never count the petrol consumption but recently on the way to thane-virar which is 50 kilometer highway from my home. it gives me 65+ average . new age bike only looks good but doesn't have a comfort the over ballooned shape of petrol tank not only discomforts you but in case of accident your secret asset might get damaged. passion plus is really a family bike which can easily accommodate you your wife and two children in short distance i.e upto market or short distance relative. Overall those who thinks that their hard earned money should give them value, and if they really love and want to keep bike till 10 years then the only choice is passion plus a queen of the road and heart.
