Hero Pleasure Plus Test Ride Review – Best For Females?

Ergonomics – The ergonomics of the Pleasure have been retained for the Pleasure Plus and the scooter is very easily accessible for almost everyone. Women will like the scooter more as the weight isn’t much and seating comfort is very much up to the mark. The handlebar is short and not too high either, as an overall riding posture turns out to be comfortable and upright. The under-seat storage area is quite big while you also get two pockets below the handlebar. You also get a USB charger at the front for convenience on the go.

Performance – The Hero Pleasure has come from a 100cc category to a 110cc category which makes it quite a performer. The 110.9cc motor produces 8 BHP and 8.7 Nm of torque with 16% more power and 7% increase in torque. As the weight hasn’t changed, the overall result is that the Pleasure Plus is very peppy now. It has a happy to go low-end with a decent mid-range. The top-end isn’t much as it struggles post 65 km/hr but it will manage to hit a top speed of 85 km/hr without breaking a sweat. There is no harshness from the engine while there are little vibrations which creep in but only in the top-end. The motor is still quite efficient and returns close to 55 km/l.

Riding Dynamics – As the ergonomics are the same, the riding dynamics are also similar to older Pleasure. Hero MotoCorp has retained the under-bone chassis and this makes the scooter quite agile even after being just 100 kgs in weight. It holds the line well and manoeuvres through traffic quite easily and quickly. It gets standard size tyres from Ceat which grip decently well for the scooter. There is no telescopic suspension at the front and this results in a bouncy ride when riding through some undulations. The brakes are 130 mm standard size drums and the Pleasure does not get disc even as an option. However, the braking performance is likeable and the scooter stops as commanded as it gets Hero’s integrated braking system.
