HI Guys,
This is my latest update on the review of Hero Passion Xpro, my bike is 2 years old, till now I have run 16, 500 kms. The mileage I get is consistent from 65-70 kmpl, I have changed the chain sprocket only once at 15, 000 km. I have observed that when I try to go above 80, I do not feel much vibration, as I have put soft cusioned seat over the original seat. The battery got weakened once because of which the odo-meter and horn’s was not working, showed it to service guy, he recharged it and there is no problem, the reason was excessive using of switch start and not using the kick start early in the morning. Till now I am happy with its performance, sometimes I see the bike struggles to overtake other bikes. As I ride always in economy mode might be the bike got adjusted to the economy speed not the high speed.
During double ride the bike’s pick up is not good.
In the bangalore traffic, there is no fun in overtaking as we need to apply brakes very often. so in that case riding in 40-50 speed saves the fuel as well as we can avoid applying frequent brakes, this increases fuel efficiency
Note: Speed at which bike was rode is in economy speed(40-50kmph).
