Hero HF 100 Specifications

Power on the Hero HF 100 comes from the 97.2 cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine tuned for 8 bhp at 8,000 rpm and 8.05 Nm of peak torque at 6,000 rpm, paired with a 4-speed gearbox. This motor also does duty on the Hero Passion Plus and Splendor Plus commuter bikes. Apart from the engine updated to meet OBD-2B compliance, the bike remains the same. Suspension duties are handled by telescopic forks at the front and twin shocks at the rear. Braking performance comes from 130 mm drum brakes at either end with combi-braking. The HF100 rides on 18-inch alloy wheels with tubeless tyres.

Other features include a self-start, side-stand cut-off, an analogue instrument console, a 735 mm long seat, and more. The bike is available with a five-year warranty. A light kerb weight of just 110 kg makes the HF100 nimble, while also ensuring high fuel economy more consistently.
