I read some of the reviews that others have written on the Hero Honda Splendour and....hoo boy was I shocked to learn all these features about the bike I had been riding on for the last year and half. I started seeing stars and planets(astronomy buff u know so I like seeing spacial objects), well anyway I decided that I was gonna write a review on the bike that I admit not knowing much about and it was gonna be a review with no technical information at all.


So well the Splendour is a 4 stroke bike, with a 10.5 ltrs fuel ta...OOOPS sorry forgot no techno stuff(hehe kidding, I know u expected me to do some corny trick like starting of with a technical para, so I didnt wanna disappoint you my loving readers).


Well ok as I was saying, I have been driving my Splendour for the past year and half in Pune city. Firstly people staying in Pune know that when I say driving its more like battling my way. Pune has one of the most congested roads where cycles and autos and buses and trucks have right of way, and they expect you to freeze in your tracks a mile before you see them (now you are saying boy thats dangerous, might lead to accidents, well its not might, it does lead to accidents,I've been involved in a couple myself. Now ma you are not supposed to read this, and if you do then dont believe anything I've written,hehe). Ok I got beautifully side tracked of the topic again, now where was I....oh ok, this bike has given me the kind of support you expect from a loving brother, it conveys me around the city, cures me of my boredom and whenever I feel lonely and depressed it's always there to take me whichever place I wanna go.


Now I ask you how many bikes do you know of that will do all this ... what ... what do I hear, did you say all of your bikes do this.. hmmm well do all of them do it at an average of 65 kmpl... whats this silence I hear(or dont hear). ha! This bike gives any bike thats available on the Indian market a run for its money.


Its cheap, its efficient to run, does not pollute like many other bikes, has very few maintenance problems and looks mighty good too. Its been a revolutionary bike in its own way, it was the first good looking bike brought into the Indian market (thank you Hero Honda I luv u guys). And in this age of CBZ's, Fiero's, Ambitions and what-nots this bike still holds its own with great comfort. And this is self evident if you look at the fact that even today Hero Honda's largest selling bike is still the Splendour.


What can I say but that unless you offer me a Ducati or a Harley to own, on Indian roads the Splendour is my fav. bike to drive. So eat your hearts out you CBZ, and Fiero owners. Move out of the way or I might just run you over when I'm driving(of course that could be cos I'm half blind). CHOW!!!
