Question Stunner & Glamour

Hi Guys




My Requirements:
  1. Should give a very decent Mileage
  2. Should have some power - the accelerating experience
  3. Should look good
  4. Should be easy to maintain
  5. should be able to reach speed of 100
  6. My Budget is 60k
I am tall, thin and not a power user of bikes.
I dont wanna go to High End Bikes say 150+ or heavy bikes
So I choose Glamour for the Brand HeroHonda.

When I came to know about Stunner, I forgot HH-Glamour.
The PGM-Fi version of both are good, but I find Stunner is too pricey in this 2nd version,
can I sacrifice and go for Glamour again?

I dont biker friends-groups, I would primarily use for office, but i would love to join such groups.
Please fill your serious opinions. I need them!!




love that PGM-Fi! why not go for Apache Fi - coz it costs only 2k more. dont wanna be a kid to get afraid of handling a 150 bike! any appreciation guys?

Cost difference b/w Stunner PGMFi and Glamour PGMFi is more than 10K (obviously Glamour the cheaper one). Go for Glam PGMFi (B'lore OTR is about 61K).

Glamour is hard core commuter and not a speed machine. You may reach 100kmph on speedo but will strain the bike (any 125cc for that matter) !!

PGMFi will make the engine very smooth, much better than carb version, many other benefits of Fi . FYI, Glamour cost in B'lore (OTR) varies from 60K to 63.5K check out options !!

If you want a sporty look go for the stunner. You can buy the carb version and buy riding gear with those 15 k which you would save.

i have done 33k on my glamour b4 handling it to my brother.
not the PGM-FI one rather the plain one.

+s are many like superb engine, good power even when its only 9 bhp, O maintaince, racing bike type cornering ability etc.

but u got to agree that looks are not upto the mark and if u are tall ( as u said) its not the One for u

go for stunner , plain - no FI.

u wont regret it.
offcourse FI makes a lot of difference but not in 125 cc commuters but in power segment,
and price is too high, not to mention resale will suck.

I would go for the gladiator anyday,though if you want a bit of flash,the stunner it is...And as hydbiker suggested,it suits your requirement.Have a TD of both and I'm sure you'll like it better
