Hero Glamour BS6:
A Smart Choice in the 125cc Motorcycle Segment
The 125cc motorcycle category is one of the most fiercely competitive segments in the global two-wheeler market, and India has long led the way in innovation and volume in this space. Among the prominent players, Hero MotoCorp continues to hold a strong position with its popular commuter bike — the Hero Glamour.
As a brand committed to bringing quality and value-packed motorcycles to Zambia, Smart Motors Zambia is proud to spotlight the Hero Glamour BS6 — a motorcycle that blends performance, efficiency, and compliance with modern emission norms, making it an ideal option for everyday riders.
Refined for the Modern Rider
The Hero Glamour BS6 brings in several enhancements that elevate its reliability and environmental friendliness. The latest update ensures the bike complies with BS6 Phase 2 emission norms, which translates to cleaner performance and better fuel efficiency. While these changes might not be as radical as seen in some other Hero models like the Passion Pro, they are significant enough to keep the Glamour relevant in a dynamic segment.
Performance Meets Efficiency
At the heart of the Hero Glamour is a 124.7cc air-cooled, single-cylinder engine that is tuned for balanced power delivery and smooth daily commuting. Key technical specs include:
- Max Power: 10.7 HP
- Max Torque: 10.6 Nm
- Compression Ratio: 9.9:1
- Bore x Stroke: 52.4 mm x 57.8 mm
- Fuel Type: Petrol
- Riding Range: Up to 550 km on a full tank
This engine is paired with a wet multi-plate clutch and a smooth-shifting gearbox, ensuring responsive performance even in stop-and-go traffic. The MF 12V, 4Ah battery and 1 spark plug per cylinder setup enhance starting reliability and maintenance ease.
Competing in a Tough Market
The Hero Glamour is up against strong contenders like the Honda Shine 125, Bajaj Pulsar 125, and Honda SP 125. While the SP 125 commands a slightly higher price, the Glamour strikes an excellent balance between features and affordability, making it a strong value proposition for Zambian riders seeking a dependable daily commuter.
Practicality and Purpose
Though the Glamour does not offer multiple riding modes, its well-engineered components — including 2 valves per cylinder, robust suspension setup, and a comfortable seat — make it an ideal choice for both urban and rural roads.
