Built around Hero Honda's sport motorcycle platform, the 2011 Hero Honda Super Splendor 125 features a 124.5 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 9 HP (6.6 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10.4 Nm (7.6 lb-ft) at 4,800 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 72.3 HP per liter and a 2,200 rpm working window between peak torque (4,800 rpm) and peak power (7,000 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Super Splendor 125 measures 121 kg (267 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (13.44 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,265 mm (49.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 90 km/h (56 mph).
