About Duet

The Hero Duet is a unisex 110cc scooter positioned between the Pleasure and the Maestro Edge. It is one of the first new products developed independently by Hero MotoCorp since its split with long-time joint venture partner – Honda.

The Duet is being promoted as a family scooter. The metal body is beautifully moulded into a very modern and dynamic shape, which makes it one of the best-looking scooters in the segment. At the front, the headlamp and the turn signals have been integrated into a single unit on the handlebar, while the V-shaped chrome strip on the front apron adds a modest amount of bling. The black floorboard, seat and the grab rail contrasts beautifully with the funky paint schemes.

The Hero Duet is based on a new platform and is powered by a new 111cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine. This engine delivers 8bhp and 8Nm of torque through a CVT transmission. It gets telescopic suspension at the front and a spring-loaded hydraulic damper in the rear. The Duet rides on 10-inch metal wheels and 90/100 profile tubeless tyres. It comes with the innovative combi brakes, with drum brakes at both ends.

The Duet is available in six funky paint schemes – red, silver white, grey, matte grey, green and black. It competes with other 110cc scooters like the Suzuki Let’s, Mahindra Gusto, TVS Jupiter and the Honda Activa-i. The LX base variant of the Duet is priced at Rs 49,565 (ex-showroom).

Hero Duet Expert Opinion

Good Things
- The 110cc engine is smooth and refined
- The external fuel filler is of great use
- Gets under seat charging port
Could be Better
- The acceleration is not exciting
- Doesn't get alloy wheels

BikeWale's Take

The Hero Duet is an entry-level 110cc scooter designed for a family. It offers decent level of comfort, along with some practicality. The scooter should have at least got alloy wheels as an option.

First Drive Review Hero Duet First Ride Review

23 December 2015Ranjan R. Bhat

The Hero Duet is India’s largest two-wheeler maker’s attempt at taking its scooter sales to the next level. And like the Maestro Edge, the Duet too has shrugged off Honda's technology and is a completely home grown Hero MotoCorp offering. So, it was back to the drawing board and out came a completely new platform and powertrain. Positioned between the masculine Maestro and the effeminate Pleasure, the Hero Duet is a brand new unisex family scooter, charged with the responsibility of boosting Hero' sales in the burgeoning scooter segment.
