SPLENDOR :grand and impressive beauty, 4 Stroke engine with 7.1 bhp/8500rpm.
Well the engine might not sound powerful, but its more then enough for Indian roads and requirements.
My dad bought Splendor in 1998, in Pune, wen it was kind of new. we bought it for about 45000 IRS including taxes and addons. Well the best thing about SPLENDOR is that it never asks for more then one kick to start. Plus it gives promising milage. Once fill the tank and come back after one month. One doesn’t have to worry about regular servicing. It doesn’t require much maintenance.
