The Hero Glamour X appears like a perfect recipe for hitting the hearts of metropolitan youth who love all the modern amenities, but don’t want to spend that extra and miss out on great fuel efficiency. Hero has shocked the industry by offering cruise control and ride-by-wire in a 125cc bike. However, 95% of its owners will use it in the city, hence it will be interesting to see how customers accept it. Apart from that, it has everything one really wants from a 125cc motorcycle.

  • The only 125cc motorcycle on sale to offer cruise control

  • Even comes with under-seat storage
  • Looks muscular and futuristic
  • Claimed fuel efficiency of 65 kmpl

• What could have been better

  • The long visor rattles on rough roads

Hero Glamour X Detailed Review

Design 4.5

• It seems the Glamour has spent plenty of time at the gym to earn the ‘X’ moniker, sporting a more muscular stance, sharper design, and strong character lines that set it apart from the standard model. The signature ‘H’-shaped LED lighting adds a futuristic touch, while the extended tank shrouds give this otherwise commuter-friendly bike a sporty edge. 
• Speaking of key details, the Glamour X sports an unusually large visor - almost like the bike is wearing an oversized hat. Surprisingly, this isn’t an accessory but a standard design element, giving the motorcycle impressive road presence while also aiding its aerodynamic performance. 
• Not skipping away from its primary goal, the Glamour X features a wide seat and Hero says the end portion of it is larger by 10%, so the pillion will experience an even better seating experience. 
• The Glamour X will also be offered with five different paint options; Black Pearl Red, Black Teal Blue, Metallic Nexus Blue, Candy Blazing Red, and Matt Metallic Silver.
• Lastly, the rear profile features the familiar H-shaped LED tail-light along with LED turn signals. This lighting setup is striking and enhances the bike’s overall appeal.

Engine and Hardware 4.5

• Hero retains the same 124.7 cc air-cooled engine, producing 11.4 BHP and 10.5 Nm of torque. The motor has been re-tuned and now delivers performance on par with the Hero Xtreme 125R.
• This bike comes equipped with AERA (Advanced Electronic Ride Assist) featuring Ride-by-Wire technology, making it the first in its segment to offer this feature.
• Hero claims the engine delivers strong low-end torque and smooth power delivery across the rev range, resulting in excellent NVH levels.
• Moreover, the exhaust note now has a deeper, bassier tone, giving the bike a more robust sound and adding to its versatility as a 125 cc motorcycle.
• The bike rides on 80/100-18 tubeless tyres at both ends. Suspension duties are handled by telescopic forks at the front and 5-step adjustable hydraulic shock absorbers at the rear.
• Lastly, it boasts a claimed fuel efficiency of 65 km/l.

Power	11.39 @ 8250 rpm
Torque	10.4 Nm @6500 rpm

Features 4.5

• Hero has packed Glamour X with features from top to bottom. First of all it features an all LED setup. So, headlamps, blinkers and tail-light are all LED. 
• Another cool feature here is the Cruise control, which surprisingly, is not even seen in Hero's most expensive bikes. The highway commutes will become more fun and relaxing with it. 
• The bike features a 4.21-inch MID with over 60 functions, Bluetooth connectivity, and an adaptive display. Key highlights include a gear-position indicator, turn-by-turn navigation, call and SMS alerts, a USB-C charging port, and a panic-braking alert. Borrowed from the Karizma XMR 210, this screen also offers brightness adjustability via an ambient light sensor.
• Lastly, the Glamour X offers three ride modes - Eco, Road, and Power - further showcasing its versatility and segment-leading intent.

  The Hero Glamour X 125 is a nice bike with excellent features across its segment. The cruise control is very impressive and adds to the riding experience. However, there is a minor issue with brake control, and I feel it would be even better if it came with an ABS system. Thank you, Hero, for bringing the Glamour X 125.
