The Hero Honda Glamour-Fi




The Hero Honda Glamour-Fi is a trendsetter in Indian two-wheeler industry for its path breaking fuel-injection technology. Fuel-injection technology offers superior and consistent engine performance with improved drivability, lower emissions, enhanced fuel economy and extended engine life.

The PGM-FI feature (Programmed Fuel Injection) in Glamour-Fi is basically a computer controlled electronic fuel injection system that scans critical engine operating conditions through sensors and provides input to the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) to inject the accurate amount of fuel as per the requirement. Thus the new technology eliminates the need for a carburetor.

Apart from fuel-injection, the Glamour-Fi comes loaded with other features such as a Bank Angle Sensor and Malfunction Indicator Lamp. The sensor is an important safety feature that cuts off the fuel supply and ignition if the bike tips over while diagnoses any malfunction of sensors and indicates the same to the rider.

The Glamour-Fi comes with a four-stroke, single cylinder, air-cooled engine that generates a displacement of 124.8cc. The bike features the standard suspension set-up of telescopic hydraulic fork at the front and a swing arm with hydraulic shock absorbers at the rear.
