Hero Passion Xtec

Speed is very good but the bike goes solo. The throttle response is amazing. Built quality is such that it won't go anywhere in 15 years if the engine oil is changed at the proper time. Disc variant should be chosen for better braking. Now the design and graphics look too cool. This bike is made to carry loads and to live a long life. Safety is better than smaller bikes such as Splender and Hf Deluxe. Consider this.

Got the bike quick and easy process
Pros: Looks better than most of the average commuter's
*Brakes are ok
*Mileage of 70kmpl fabulous
Cons:
Having the gear issue from day one
Gears keep grinding or decide to just fall to lower gear which almost put me in fatal situations.
Service people don't give a shit instead they fought with me and I continuously rant about the problem. Since been quiet about the gearbox issue
The engine decides to cut off on low rpm even if the clutch is pressed
The ignition switch doesn't work after some months
Now feels like due to all the engine issues mileage dropped to 50 now
Not the best handling in corners and wobbles crazily above 70kmph
Headlight sucks ass. Can't see shit at night times even the high beam is useless
And the tank is empty even though it has 2+ liters
Now having a starting issue
The i3s system doesn't work
Chain noises keep coming back even after changing the sprocket send and bush set 2 days before.
I love the connection I built with the bike.
It's not the fault of the bike it's the fault of the manufacturer. And service people If thinking of buying don't buy.
Almost had this love-hate relationship with this bike for 25000kms and 3+ years now

About the Reviewer

The bike is the worst, has a lot of issues with the engine, and the mileage is not good, The Riddhi Hero service centre is not a service centre it's a roadside garage-type facility.
Never buy any hero bike. My earlier bike was Hero Passion XPRO which is still running well but now Hero has downgraded their built quality, and engine performance so I will never buy any bike from Hero and will switch to HONDA.

When riding the bike engine gets off immediately when we try to cut the gear or while we try to hold the clutch to reduce the gear. On the first day itself, the problem started till now the problem has not been resolved by the hero company service center. I think this is a manufacturing defect or this model Hero Passion Xtec is a failed model in my opinion.
