Hero Glamour Xtec Price in Ooty

I have been riding this beautiful machine for 2 years (more than 30k km). And I have discovered a lot of things with the bike..
1. The design of the bike attracts more dirt, especially in monsoon. Pillion legs get dirty during monsoon.
2. Bike cowls are a little sharpy which looks stunning but it’s prone to scratches.
3. After a 1.5 the clutch kit is getting exhausted every 4 months. Failed self-start when it’s in gear.
4. The quality of the battery installed is disappointing as in my case in 1.5 years I had to replace it due to poor performance.
5. Although spare and body parts are cheap as compared to competitors. Love the way they designed the headlight section
6. There is no compromise on millage! Even after riding it over 30k km it’s still dealing in 53-54km/ltr (I have started using Power petrol after 1 year regularly)
7. Breaking systems although is a solid pack but felt the calliper is poor in quality as within 2 years it’s getting jammed. You can rely on breaks.
8. Love the tale light as it gives you an indication if there is any malfunction (the bulb is gone or there is an issue in the wired connection etc.)
9. Customer service is poor as at every service you need to serve the plate for them.. servicing people are not even trying to investigate while servicing the bike which may result in inappropriate service.. so you have to learn about your bike.
I can give the bike 4 stars out of 5 they just need to improve their design a little, taking pillion comfort into the picture and improving in quality of parts. I love my bike.

The buying experience is average, riding posture is comfortable, looks are stylish, performance is average, service and maintenance are superb, parts are less expensive, only have to find a good hero service center from a dealer, pros- good mileage 55-60, stylish design, good service network, good road trip cons - higher price, disk brakes shoes fades fast, every time we have to specify to a service person.
