    I love the sound, the speed, and the mileage best in this rate and light bike, I have been using it since 2020 and love this, the same sound nothing looks like a new bike. Hero servicing is so nice, you should have to take care of your bike every 2 months and I suggest you purchase this bike if you are a regular employee of any company

  • Hero glamour xtech not so Glamours on riding, No riding comfort

    13 weeks ago


    Rajesh

    Hero Glamour Xtech is not worth buying. The price is very high for such an ordinary bike. The shock absorber is not so good. Less color options. My riding experience is just average. I told them about the shock absorber problem, to the service proplem, but They did nothing. Never buy this bike, no comfort.

    I have been using the glamour 125 for 3 years and in me the pros are that it provides Good mileage, it has a sporty and Stylish design, and It is easy and Comfortable for long and short rides or any ride, It is Easy to maintain as its meter suggest when is service due. It is Good value for money. It has Smooth gas shifts and a perfect clutch system. It has a Spacious seat for the rider and back person. The cons are that the service can only be done by a Genuine service center due to the sensor. Its Back indicators are broken easily as they are not that strong. The biggest problem is No LED lights or switch to turn it off even in daylight. It has another big problem that it has High water spills on foot in rainy conditions. Its Braking system could be better. Its Suspension could be improved to handle bumps and potholes better. It doesn't have a reserve petrol switch which sometimes causes problems in winter or rainy season.

    Bike driving is very comfortable with glamour. I love this bike's features and looks. The average of my bike is good. Service and spare availability very much in India in any location. The price of spare parts is very low. Breaks are very good and the gear is too tight but not disturbing. It has chain less meter Console.

  • Very worst bike in life time

    1 year ago


    Victor

    Buying experience is so bad, no proper bill for bank transfers. Everyday riding experience is so hectic. Too much noise in the dashboard after so many services. The service advisor says they have repeated complaints about the new model of Glamour 125 and it seems complete manufacturing defect. Worst bike in my lifetime. Very worst option in bs vi. Do not buy hero glamour 125. Better to go for any other models.

  • Glamour only name is enough for style

    1 year ago


    Satyam Surate

    The bike is awesome and riding comfort is very peaceful and mileage is good according to 125cc. Bluetooth connectivity is very helpful when riding I can see who calls me on my bike screen. And also see the map. The bike's look is very stylish and dashing when roaring on road. Firing is very pure its feels like the heartbeat of a hero's engine. And the price is perfect for that machine I am fully satisfied with this bike.

  • All the best bike you are my champion

    2 years ago


    Ramu K

    I brought this bike in 2015 in Hyderabad but I observed that I got around 35-40 kmpl only I expected 45-50 kmpl but it meets my expectations. The ride experience is good on the bike. The balance of the bike is great. I will feel happier other than that no problem with the bike, this bike is more suitable for a small family I love my bike thanks ...

  • Hero Glamour 125 review

    2 years ago


    Prateek Bhatia

    The moment i went out of the show room this vehicle started giving troubles to me. With in 1 to 1.5 kms from the showroom it stopped in the middle of the road. And then it refused to start. 5-6 times i tried to start it and then it finally started. Its self start was struggling. After one or two attempts at start the whole Lcd panel shut and struggled while starting as if it was some old or discharged battery. But then as i trusted your product i thought that may be your dealer never charged the battery before delivering it and just gave the bike like this. I thought that what can go wrong in a new product of such a branded company and gave it a pass. That was the worst mistake i made. In today's world as they say in hindi “ bharosa to apne baap pe bhi nahin karna chahiye”.
    Trusting the company and the brand i just made it stand in my parking for the next 3-4 days unused with just 2 km on the trip meter. I had my brother visiting from abroad and so i was busy in a lot of other things. After few days i again took it to petrol pump and filled in 300 rs fuel just to check the mileage. To my great surprise the fuel meter still was showing empty blinking with the tank almost half full. One and half litre the dealer claimed they filled { if it was not a lie}. Even if it was a lie i just now filled it with three liters so it should show at least three bars. But it showed empty blinking all the time.
    Then i moved towards my house and i asked my mother to take a ride with me. As soon as i asked my mother to sit on the bike. The bike refused to start. Again it was after 6-8 attempts it started. It started all the time but with in fraction of a second stopped { not two three seconds after but with in one second}. Again the same lcd panel going off and the self struggling as if some old battery in there. Anyways we some how managed to start a ride only for a km or so when i found that the tyre was bubbling. Before i could stop a passerby rider alerted me that the tyres are having no air pressure. I quickly stopped at the nearby puncture shop and that guy told me that the air pressure was 20 at the back and similar at the front and which is very low. So the agency ppl not even inflated the tyres properly before handing over the bike.
    Somehow we finished the ride. Here i must add a positive that the ride after that was smooth. I tried to drive at high speed also just to check . The bike was very stable and was very responsive. It was a good experience.
    But then after i came back. And then after some time had to go some where and tried to start the bike again. The old problem of not starting returned. The next day i again tried to go for a drive and then when i stopped at a railway crossing and then tried to start again it just starts and stops with in a fraction of a second. And this time because of hooting from people at the backside who were also stuck in the jam i asked my mother to get off the bike so that i can take it to the side and then all of a sudden it started and i asked her again to climb on to the bike very fast as people were hooting. And in this exercise she got hurt very badly at an old fracture already there in her legs and since then became bed ridden.
    I took the bike to the service centre and they are not able to repair it. They re formatted the bike and then asked me to not give the vehicle keys to some one else and don’t start it. They said that the mechanic will start it and check as now its reformatted digitally. But before the mechanic who was busy with some other bike could lay his hands on my bike some other senior person asked me for the bike keys and took away the bike. When the mechanic asked the bike from me i had no clue where it was. I was told that its upside at the showroom. When i went there i was told that the bike doesn't needs repair and had a flashing problem which has been corrected after the format.
    I again tried the bike but the problem persisted. Then they asked a mechanic to ride with me. And then i showed him the problem. He said not you are driving wrong. Then i handed over the bike to him and asked him to drive. And then the same thing happened with him also. After which he said that there is a oxygen and low rpm problem. This all in a new bike. Some how some other person then did what behind my back i don’t know but for the time being then the bike ran smoothly for 10-15 kms under test drive.
    I returned and parked the vehicle again. After two three days again when i took the bike out with only 44 kms done { most of which during test } after running smoothly for 5-6 kms again the problem reappeared.
    And there is a faulty fuel meter as well. These people are unable to repair the bike. All sorts of tick tick voice is coming out of the bike even if i drive it for 100 meter. This sound is coming from exhaust because of engine heating up. I said how can the engine heat up in just 100-200 meters and tick tick voice starts coming. They say in bs6 this thing happens. When i ask about the other churr churr noise which has recently started coming some times they say its because of new engine.
    When i ask about the faulty meter they say again that in bs6 and electronic meter this happens. When i ask about the start stop problem they say that you keep driving right now the bike is new and after some time that will go away . We will see it in the first service. How can i drive this faulty bike which stops every where and is not reliable.
    I haven't even been given the registration certificate of the bike even after 20 days. They say that the paper on which registration certificate is printed is in short supply at the rto.
    They have an flimsy excuse for anything and everything. Some times i feel that the problem is not with the bike but with this people. They have knowingly done some mischief for the bike to behave like this. I don’t know them personally and have paid 2700 extra to them which they cant explain. I paid 90000 for this bike and their total is coming for 87300 only.
    The bike is standing in my house brand new and haven't even done 100km in total and this is the condition of your dealer rs auto.
    I would request you to replace this bike as its brand new and haven't even done 100 kms and if this is the state of affairs with the new thing i don’t want to imagine what it will be when it gets a bit old. Electronics and mechanical things if working well at the start keep working well through out . But if they are problematic at the initial stage then they keep on churning new problems every now and then. I think there is a manufacturing defect in this bike or there is some one playing mischief knowingly. Either ways i as a customer is at a compete loss.

And then it refused to start. 5-6 times i tried to start it and then it finally started. Its self start was struggling. After one or two attempts at start the whole Lcd panel shut and struggled while starting as if it was some old or discharged battery. But then as i trusted your product i thought that may be your dealer never charged the battery before delivering it and just gave the bike like this. I thought that what can go wrong in a new product of such a branded company and gave it a pass. That was the worst mistake i made. In today's world as they say in hindi “ bharosa to apne baap pe bhi nahin karna chahiye”.
    Trusting the company and the brand i just made it stand in my parking for the next 3-4 days unused with just 2 km on the trip meter. I had my brother visiting from abroad and so i was busy in a lot of other things. After few days i again took it to petrol pump and filled in 300 rs fuel just to check the mileage. To my great surprise the fuel meter still was showing empty blinking with the tank almost half full. One and half litre the dealer claimed they filled { if it was not a lie}. Even if it was a lie i just now filled it with three liters so it should show at least three bars. But it showed empty blinking all the time.
    Then i moved towards my house and i asked my mother to take a ride with me. As soon as i asked my mother to sit on the bike. The bike refused to start. Again it was after 6-8 attempts it started. It started all the time but with in fraction of a second stopped { not two three seconds after but with in one second}. Again the same lcd panel going off and the self struggling as if some old battery in there. Anyways we some how managed to start a ride only for a km or so when i found that the tyre was bubbling. Before i could stop a passerby rider alerted me that the tyres are having no air pressure. I quickly stopped at the nearby puncture shop and that guy told me that the air pressure was 20 at the back and similar at the front and which is very low. So the agency ppl not even inflated the tyres properly before handing over the bike.
    Somehow we finished the ride. Here i must add a positive that the ride after that was smooth. I tried to drive at high speed also just to check . The bike was very stable and was very responsive. It was a good experience.
    But then after i came back. And then after some time had to go some where and tried to start the bike again. The old problem of not starting returned. The next day i again tried to go for a drive and then when i stopped at a railway crossing and then tried to start again it just starts and stops with in a fraction of a second. And this time because of hooting from people at the backside who were also stuck in the jam i asked my mother to get off the bike so that i can take it to the side and then all of a sudden it started and i asked her again to climb on to the bike very fast as people were hooting. And in this exercise she got hurt very badly at an old fracture already there in her legs and since then became bed ridden.
    I took the bike to the service centre and they are not able to repair it. They re formatted the bike and then asked me to not give the vehicle keys to some one else and don’t start it. They said that the mechanic will start it and check as now its reformatted digitally. But before the mechanic who was busy with some other bike could lay his hands on my bike some other senior person asked me for the bike keys and took away the bike. When the mechanic asked the bike from me i had no clue where it was. I was told that its upside at the showroom. When i went there i was told that the bike doesn't needs repair and had a flashing problem which has been corrected after the format.
    I again tried the bike but the problem persisted. Then they asked a mechanic to ride with me. And then i showed him the problem. He said not you are driving wrong. Then i handed over the bike to him and asked him to drive. And then the same thing happened with him also. After which he said that there is a oxygen and low rpm problem. This all in a new bike. Some how some other person then did what behind my back i don’t know but for the time being then the bike ran smoothly for 10-15 kms under test drive.
    I returned and parked the vehicle again. After two three days again when i took the bike out with only 44 kms done { most of which during test } after running smoothly for 5-6 kms again the problem reappeared.
    And there is a faulty fuel meter as well. These people are unable to repair the bike. All sorts of tick tick voice is coming out of the bike even if i drive it for 100 meter. This sound is coming from exhaust because of engine heating up. I said how can the engine heat up in just 100-200 meters and tick tick voice starts coming. They say in bs6 this thing happens. When i ask about the other churr churr noise which has recently started coming some times they say its because of new engine.
    When i ask about the faulty meter they say again that in bs6 and electronic meter this happens. When i ask about the start stop problem they say that you keep driving right now the bike is new and after some time that will go away . We will see it in the first service. How can i drive this faulty bike which stops every where and is not reliable.
    I haven't even been given the registration certificate of the bike even after 20 days. They say that the paper on which registration certificate is printed is in short supply at the rto.
    They have an flimsy excuse for anything and everything. Some times i feel that the problem is not with the bike but with this people. They have knowingly done some mischief for the bike to behave like this. I don’t know them personally and have paid 2700 extra to them which they cant explain. I paid 90000 for this bike and their total is coming for 87300 only.
    The bike is standing in my house brand new and haven't even done 100km in total and this is the condition of your dealer rs auto.
    I would request you to replace this bike as its brand new and haven't even done 100 kms and if this is the state of affairs with the new thing i don’t want to imagine what it will be when it gets a bit old. Electronics and mechanical things if working well at the start keep working well through out . But if they are problematic at the initial stage then they keep on churning new problems every now and then. I think there is a manufacturing defect in this bike or there is some one playing mischief knowingly. Either ways i as a customer is at a compete loss.

    I love the sound, the speed, and the mileage best in this rate and light bike, I have been using it since 2020 and love this, the same sound nothing looks like a new bike. Hero servicing is so nice, you should have to take care of your bike every 2 months and I suggest you purchase this bike if you are a regular employee of any company

  • Hero glamour xtech not so Glamours on riding, No riding comfort

    13 weeks ago


    Rajesh

    Hero Glamour Xtech is not worth buying. The price is very high for such an ordinary bike. The shock absorber is not so good. Less color options. My riding experience is just average. I told them about the shock absorber problem, to the service proplem, but They did nothing. Never buy this bike, no comfort.

    I have been using the glamour 125 for 3 years and in me the pros are that it provides Good mileage, it has a sporty and Stylish design, and It is easy and Comfortable for long and short rides or any ride, It is Easy to maintain as its meter suggest when is service due. It is Good value for money. It has Smooth gas shifts and a perfect clutch system. It has a Spacious seat for the rider and back person. The cons are that the service can only be done by a Genuine service center due to the sensor. Its Back indicators are broken easily as they are not that strong. The biggest problem is No LED lights or switch to turn it off even in daylight. It has another big problem that it has High water spills on foot in rainy conditions. Its Braking system could be better. Its Suspension could be improved to handle bumps and potholes better. It doesn't have a reserve petrol switch which sometimes causes problems in winter or rainy season.

    Bike driving is very comfortable with glamour. I love this bike's features and looks. The average of my bike is good. Service and spare availability very much in India in any location. The price of spare parts is very low. Breaks are very good and the gear is too tight but not disturbing. It has chain less meter Console.

  • Very worst bike in life time

    1 year ago


    Victor

    Buying experience is so bad, no proper bill for bank transfers. Everyday riding experience is so hectic. Too much noise in the dashboard after so many services. The service advisor says they have repeated complaints about the new model of Glamour 125 and it seems complete manufacturing defect. Worst bike in my lifetime. Very worst option in bs vi. Do not buy hero glamour 125. Better to go for any other models.

    The bike is awesome and riding comfort is very peaceful and mileage is good according to 125cc. Bluetooth connectivity is very helpful when riding I can see who calls me on my bike screen. And also see the map. The bike's look is very stylish and dashing when roaring on road. Firing is very pure its feels like the heartbeat of a hero's engine. And the price is perfect for that machine I am fully satisfied with this bike.

    I brought this bike in 2015 in Hyderabad but I observed that I got around 35-40 kmpl only I expected 45-50 kmpl but it meets my expectations. The ride experience is good on the bike. The balance of the bike is great. I will feel happier other than that no problem with the bike, this bike is more suitable for a small family I love my bike thanks ...

  • Very worst bike in life time

    1 year ago


    Victor

    Buying experience is so bad, no proper bill for bank transfers. Everyday riding experience is so hectic. Too much noise in the dashboard after so many services. The service advisor says they have repeated complaints about the new model of Glamour 125 and it seems complete manufacturing defect. Worst bike in my lifetime. Very worst option in bs vi. Do not buy hero glamour 125. Better to go for any other models.

  • Glamour only name is enough for style

    1 year ago


    Satyam Surate

    The bike is awesome and riding comfort is very peaceful and mileage is good according to 125cc. Bluetooth connectivity is very helpful when riding I can see who calls me on my bike screen. And also see the map. The bike's look is very stylish and dashing when roaring on road. Firing is very pure its feels like the heartbeat of a hero's engine. And the price is perfect for that machine I am fully satisfied with this bike.

    I brought this bike in 2015 in Hyderabad but I observed that I got around 35-40 kmpl only I expected 45-50 kmpl but it meets my expectations. The ride experience is good on the bike. The balance of the bike is great. I will feel happier other than that no problem with the bike, this bike is more suitable for a small family I love my bike thanks ...

  • Hero Glamour 125 review

    2 years ago


    Prateek Bhatia

    The moment i went out of the show room this vehicle started giving troubles to me. With in 1 to 1.5 kms from the showroom it stopped in the middle of the road. And then it refused to start. 5-6 times i tried to start it and then it finally started. Its self start was struggling. After one or two attempts at start the whole Lcd panel shut and struggled while starting as if it was some old or discharged battery. But then as i trusted your product i thought that may be your dealer never charged the battery before delivering it and just gave the bike like this. I thought that what can go wrong in a new product of such a branded company and gave it a pass. That was the worst mistake i made. In today's world as they say in hindi “ bharosa to apne baap pe bhi nahin karna chahiye”.
    Trusting the company and the brand i just made it stand in my parking for the next 3-4 days unused with just 2 km on the trip meter. I had my brother visiting from abroad and so i was busy in a lot of other things. After few days i again took it to petrol pump and filled in 300 rs fuel just to check the mileage. To my great surprise the fuel meter still was showing empty blinking with the tank almost half full. One and half litre the dealer claimed they filled { if it was not a lie}. Even if it was a lie i just now filled it with three liters so it should show at least three bars. But it showed empty blinking all the time.
    Then i moved towards my house and i asked my mother to take a ride with me. As soon as i asked my mother to sit on the bike. The bike refused to start. Again it was after 6-8 attempts it started. It started all the time but with in fraction of a second stopped { not two three seconds after but with in one second}. Again the same lcd panel going off and the self struggling as if some old battery in there. Anyways we some how managed to start a ride only for a km or so when i found that the tyre was bubbling. Before i could stop a passerby rider alerted me that the tyres are having no air pressure. I quickly stopped at the nearby puncture shop and that guy told me that the air pressure was 20 at the back and similar at the front and which is very low. So the agency ppl not even inflated the tyres properly before handing over the bike.
    Somehow we finished the ride. Here i must add a positive that the ride after that was smooth. I tried to drive at high speed also just to check . The bike was very stable and was very responsive. It was a good experience.
    But then after i came back. And then after some time had to go some where and tried to start the bike again. The old problem of not starting returned. The next day i again tried to go for a drive and then when i stopped at a railway crossing and then tried to start again it just starts and stops with in a fraction of a second. And this time because of hooting from people at the backside who were also stuck in the jam i asked my mother to get off the bike so that i can take it to the side and then all of a sudden it started and i asked her again to climb on to the bike very fast as people were hooting. And in this exercise she got hurt very badly at an old fracture already there in her legs and since then became bed ridden.
    I took the bike to the service centre and they are not able to repair it. They re formatted the bike and then asked me to not give the vehicle keys to some one else and don’t start it. They said that the mechanic will start it and check as now its reformatted digitally. But before the mechanic who was busy with some other bike could lay his hands on my bike some other senior person asked me for the bike keys and took away the bike. When the mechanic asked the bike from me i had no clue where it was. I was told that its upside at the showroom. When i went there i was told that the bike doesn't needs repair and had a flashing problem which has been corrected after the format.
    I again tried the bike but the problem persisted. Then they asked a mechanic to ride with me. And then i showed him the problem. He said not you are driving wrong. Then i handed over the bike to him and asked him to drive. And then the same thing happened with him also. After which he said that there is a oxygen and low rpm problem. This all in a new bike. Some how some other person then did what behind my back i don’t know but for the time being then the bike ran smoothly for 10-15 kms under test drive.
    I returned and parked the vehicle again. After two three days again when i took the bike out with only 44 kms done { most of which during test } after running smoothly for 5-6 kms again the problem reappeared.
    And there is a faulty fuel meter as well. These people are unable to repair the bike. All sorts of tick tick voice is coming out of the bike even if i drive it for 100 meter. This sound is coming from exhaust because of engine heating up. I said how can the engine heat up in just 100-200 meters and tick tick voice starts coming. They say in bs6 this thing happens. When i ask about the other churr churr noise which has recently started coming some times they say its because of new engine.
    When i ask about the faulty meter they say again that in bs6 and electronic meter this happens. When i ask about the start stop problem they say that you keep driving right now the bike is new and after some time that will go away . We will see it in the first service. How can i drive this faulty bike which stops every where and is not reliable.
    I haven't even been given the registration certificate of the bike even after 20 days. They say that the paper on which registration certificate is printed is in short supply at the rto.
    They have an flimsy excuse for anything and everything. Some times i feel that the problem is not with the bike but with this people. They have knowingly done some mischief for the bike to behave like this. I don’t know them personally and have paid 2700 extra to them which they cant explain. I paid 90000 for this bike and their total is coming for 87300 only.
    The bike is standing in my house brand new and haven't even done 100km in total and this is the condition of your dealer rs auto.
    I would request you to replace this bike as its brand new and haven't even done 100 kms and if this is the state of affairs with the new thing i don’t want to imagine what it will be when it gets a bit old. Electronics and mechanical things if working well at the start keep working well through out . But if they are problematic at the initial stage then they keep on churning new problems every now and then. I think there is a manufacturing defect in this bike or there is some one playing mischief knowingly. Either ways i as a customer is at a compete loss.
