Bulletproof 124cc Engine
The air-cooled 124.7cc single is one of Hero's most durable commuter engines, routinely crossing 80,000–100,000 km on basic oil-change discipline. Parts are cheap and available in almost every town in India, keeping running costs very low.
Watch The i3S & Electricals
On i3S-equipped models, the idle start-stop system can cause hard restarts or rough idling when the battery weakens, so check battery health and switch operation. Also inspect for clutch judder, chain slack and headlight dimming at idle, common niggles on higher-mileage units.
Strong Resale, Big Comfort
Splendor badging gives it excellent resale — well-kept examples often retain 55–65% of value after 3–4 years, better than most 125cc rivals. Its long seat, wide handlebar and 130mm ground clearance make it a favourite for two-up riding and rough roads.
