Hero Honda Glamour FI

Hero Honda has launched the fuel-injection model of its 125 cc bike Glamour under the title Hero Honda Glamour FI. The bike will come for an entry-level price of Rs 49,900. This will have a kick-start and drum brakes. The higher-end version will have self-start and disc brakes and will cost Rs 53000. This is the first time that Honda is offering its fuel injection technology on low-end bikes anywhere outside Japan. However, the Hero Honda Glamour FI is not expected to be a runaway hit due to two reasons; one - the price difference with the existing Glamour is just Rs 5,500. Two - The Hero Honda Glamour FI needs unleaded fuel, something that is still not available in large parts of India.
