what is wrong with Hero Moto...
impulse was such a unique product...
why these clones...
bravo Hero Moto is back with its sticker jobs. actualy even the impulse is a honda product (nxr 150 bros)
Nothing much to boast of as the bikes are still honda products.
Hero Moto should actualy advertise - HUM MAIN HAI HONDA!!!
HUM MAIN HAI HONDA..hahahah !!
hmm...may be hero get 2 sale thn honda due to proper service and others fearures...anyhow original is original...
annu malik ishtyle... wah, hero, wah!!!
Anonymous do u have any work without commenting anybody...u just bullshit..
@ an0nymous: "Hum mai hai Honda..."
Great comment buddy!
This is my second visit to your site! I really enjoy your article and I believe I'll become a frequent visitor to your site! I enjoy your in depth posts about this subject and I enjoy the fact you are so knowledgeable about this subject.
I will sell my honda stunner as this clone is coming in and people will only be comparing which is going to be better. I will Buy a Yamaha SS125 same CC engine which is also doing the same performance and mileage
HERO should try to deliver some original products rather than coping directly from HONDA.
but the silencer of passion X pro is just awesome..
Don't find the reason why Hero Moto gone with two bikes that are already in India by Honda? I hoped they could have come up with something related to 250 cc bike.
'Hum mein hai Honda'
That was really witty and intelligent :-D
Hero is now more dependant on Honda than ever.
Passion X : Hero ensured its numero uno status won't get affected in coming time.
Ignitor : Well this very similar to Nissan Micra/Renault Pulse kind of case.
I am not sure but these two bikes can actually affect the market performance of Twister and Stunner respectively
all are said hero copy cat from honda etc etc..
I will tell surely in future we will see more hero mastro scooters comparing to activa,hero Ignitor comparing to stunner..
its true..!!!
because bike selling is not like vegetable market..
every buyers considered the below points
After sales support and
resale value,Waiting period,lack of dealers..
At the points HERO MOTO CORP stands higher than HONDA..
Twister(Honda) ka engine utakar,Passion Pro main laga diya aur Passion X Pro bana diya.Graphics change kar diya..jo Hero hamesha kartha hain relaunch main.Backlight ki length chhoti ker di jisse look thoda dul ho gaya…petrol tank is looking good now..thumps up– kam se kam ek kaam to accha kiya.
Question is X Pro…Twister se behetar kaise hoo sakta hain…?
I actually liked the design of Ignitor ! Eventhough it may be a stunner at its heart, but still, It will take a major hit on the sales of Stunner and same goes for Passion X pro since passion pro is already selling in good quanity, the same will be driven towards passion x pro!
goodjob hero motocorp.we know that all are honda product but we all know that what happened with daewoo company so no faith to honda.we will be with u as your service is good and everywhere.
how bad it is these are HONDA products why u r copy 'zero'oh HERO
passion x-pro must have 125cc or more and plz change tail light yaar........
Hero is an Indian Company (Basted company) But HONDA is an International Company But I don't know Why Honda Is Leaving When Hero Copying All HONDA Bikes And Engines
The Best Thing Is To Bang Hero And Its Bikes In INDIA By GOVERNMENT
HERO Has No MANNER'S "HAM MAIN HAI HONDA " I LIke HONDA
Captions For Hero
HERO (A COPY COMPANY), HERO (ZERO),HERO (A BIG HOLE TO OUR POCKET)
If We Trust Hero We Will Remain As Zero And Make ourself's Copy
@Durga,
Hero has legally paid Honda for technology/engines.. so they can't be labelled as "copycats"
when are they launching ?
RATHER THAN GO FOR NEW IT BETTER TO GO FOR PRIVIOUS Ie CLUB DERAM LIKE CD100/ SS atleast they will work for you keep alive hero
I m wondering since march, 2012 about the launching of Passion Xpro and Hero Ignitor. Plz convey me the information about the launching of these two bikes at my email utpalramjas@gmail.com
Passion badly needs to change its age old design. Mere sticker jobs and silly names like Plus, Pro, XPro make it weird.
I welcome 110cc and 125cc engines in Hero squad. The 110cc should be a trendy design like Twister or something.
Ignitor looks promising than stunner :P
Hero Moto Products already shown its supremecy as compare to other company products.
time he new modle lane ka wana ta ta fisssssssss.
