With the increasing lockdown relaxations, the activities in the two-wheeler industry are also picking up pace. This was evident last week as we witnessed two new launches from major manufacturers and a couple of price hikes. If you couldn’t keep a track of the most important two-wheelers updates, here’s a quick round-up from the last week.
Honda CD 110 Dream BS6 launched
The Honda CD 110 Dream BS6 has been launched with prices starting from Rs 62,729. That’s a premium of Rs 14,000 over the BS4 model which is quite handsome considering the motorcycle is targeted at budget-conscious buyers. Besides replacing its carbureted 110cc engine by a fuel-injected unit, Honda has also introduced nifty features such as an ACG silent starter and an engine start/stop switch. Moreover, the styling of the bike has been subtly revised.
Hero HF Deluxe BS6 kick start variants launched
The Hero HF Deluxe BS6 is now available in kick start variants, besides the self-start trims which were launched in December last year. The HF Deluxe kick-start version can be had either with spoke wheels which costs Rs 46,800, or with alloy wheels which is priced at Rs 47,800. Comparatively, the self-start models are around Rs 9,000 more expensive. The BS6 HF Deluxe is powered by a 97.2cc, fuel-injected engine which makes 7.94bhp and 8.05Nm.
Suzuki Access 125 and Burgman Street 125 prices increased
Suzuki has marginally increased the prices of both the 125cc scooters in its portfolio – the Access 125 and Burgman Street 125 BS6. While all the variants of the former are now Rs 1,700 more expensive, the latter has become dearer by Rs 1,800. The Access 125 is a family oriented scooter which has been priced from Rs 68,800 and goes up to Rs 72,400, depending on the variant. The Burgman Street, meanwhile, is a more premium maxi scooter which costs Rs 79,700.
TVS XL 100 available with a unique finance scheme
TVS has announced a special finance scheme for its moped, the XL 100 BS6. Under this offer, a buyer can purchase the XL 100 by paying the down payment while the monthly installments will start after six months of purchase. The LTV (Loan to Value) of this scheme is 75 per cent and it is valid until 31 July 2020. The moped is available in Comfort and Heavy Duty models which are pegged at Rs 45,114 and Rs 43,544.
Things to check before riding post lockdown
Most of us haven’t been on a ride for close to two months now, thanks to the restrictions imposed due to the COVID-19 lockdown. Fortunately, the government has now started giving certain relaxations which means we will soon be venturing out, astride our motorcycles or scooters. However, since our bikes have remained in the parking for a long time, there are a few things crucial to be checked before the ride. Click on the story link to know what these check-ups are.
