Q. Any difference between neon and twin disc in mileage?
  • 40 to 50kmph
  • Bajaj Pulsar 125 Neon delivers an ARAI claimed mileage of 57 kmpl irrespective of the variant. In our test, the Pulsar 125 returned us 57kmpl on the highway and 51.5kmpl in the city.
Q. Which would be a better choice between Hero Passion Pro and Hero Glamour
  • Selecting the right bike would depend on several factors such as your budget preference on the segment, features required, engine options, brand preference, etc. The BS6 Passion Pro is a strong contender in the 110cc space. It’s fuel-efficient, quick on its feet, and looks the part. However, it doesn’t match up to the quality standards in the segment, isn’t as smooth as its rivals, and feels less special thanks to this. But if you’re looking for a bike that delivers on aesthetics and performance, the Passion is the way to go. Hero Passion Pro is powered by a 113 cc engine. This Passion Pro engine generates a power of 9.15 PS @ 7500 rpm and a torque of 9.89 Nm @ 5000 rpm. On the other hand, Hero has done well to keep the Glamour BS6’s pricing in check during the BS4 to BS6 transition given the fact that the BS4 Glamour already had Fi. With the new pricing, the Hero is still one of the expensive 125cc motorcycles out there but it undercuts the Honda SP 125 by around Rs 5,000. However, in the company of the similarly priced but more powerful Bajaj Pulsar 125, the Glamour BS6 feels dated and less desirable. Hero Glamour is powered by a 125 cc engine. This Glamour engine generates a power of 10.87 PS @ 7500 rpm and a torque of 10.6 Nm @ 6000 rpm. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision.
