Hero Honda have launched another ‘new’ motorcycle. We have been really trying hard to catch up with the flurry of launches the progressive Indian company is coming up with of late. The bike to get the ‘new’ treatment this time is the Hero Honda Achiever. The new bike gets some very interesting changes such as new graphics (please practice restraint), ‘all-new’ black finish engine, ‘new’ stylish alloys, and new puncture resistant tyres with tuff-up tube (no, we really appreciate this inclusion). The bike also gets a new tagline – ‘Solid, like you!’. Ahem! Without taking any more of your precious time, we will quickly move on to the specifications of this ‘new’ bike…
