The 100cc, carbureted motor of the Splendor Plus has now been updated with a fuel-injection set up with Hero’s ‘XSens technology.’ The engine now produces 7.91bhp at 8,000rpm and 8.05Nm at 6,000rpm.

While the motorcycle has remained unchanged in terms of styling, Hero did introduce the new Black and Accent variant and the 100 Million Edition to keep the market excited. Here, the wheels, engine and chain cover have been dipped in black. The cycle parts have also been retained with telescopic forks and dual shock absorbers and drum brakes at both ends. While the BS4 Splendor Plus weighs 109kg (kerb), the BS6 model is slightly heavy due to the changes on the engine. The fuel tank capacity stands at 11 litres.

Considering its displacement and purpose, the Hero Splendor Plus BS6 faces competition from the TVS Sport.
