So, what does the worlds biggest producer of<br />
motorcycles and the HERO Moto Corporation<br />
have in common?<br />
Well, they are one and the same. As we sit here<br />
writing this article on the 21st of January <strong>2021</strong><br />
the 100 millionth Hero motorcycle is rolling off<br />
the production line … say that slowly O.N.E.<br />
H.U.N.D.R.E.D. M.I.L.L.I.O.N … that is a monumental<br />
number in anybody’s book and even<br />
more astounding is that the HERO Moto Corporation<br />
is a relative youngster in the motorcycle<br />
market, first seeing the light of day in 1984.<br />
What the hell are bikes like these doing in Ride-<br />
Fast Magazine?<br />
Well they are here. We need cost effective, entry<br />
level bikes in order to get more bums in saddles.<br />
And our job is to let people know what is<br />
available on the market.
