Q. If we race with Splendor which one wins Platina or Splendor?
  • Splendor will win, because the firing rate of splendor is much higher than platina. Splendor has flat lying bore where as platina has a straight standing bore which faces gravitational force while pushing the piston to upwards direction where as splendor faces no such force. I know its little too scientific but it's true.
  • Splendor win. no doubt.
  • Platina

    Bajaj Platina 110: A Step Up in Everyday Commuting 

    Upgrading to the Bajaj Platina 110 after using several other commuter bikes has been pleasantly surprising. This bike comes with a 115 cc engine, slightly more powerful than its predecessor makes it more adept at handling both city commutes and occasional longer rides. It is also remarkably fuel efficient at around 80 kmpl, which is ideal for budget conscious users.The added features like the anti skid braking and better cushioned seats make the riding experience more comfortable and safe. However, one of the challenges with the Platina 110 is its build quality.

    Navigating Daily Commutes 

    Having commuted on the Bajaj Platina 100 for several months, it is the day to day reliability and fuel efficiency that stands out the most. The bike, equipped with a 102 cc engine is perfect for city riding. It is lightweight and easy to handle, which makes weaving through traffic a breeze. The Platina 100 offers an impressive mileage of about 90 kmpl makes it extremely economical for regular use.However, the bike’s simplicity is also its drawback. The suspension is basic and riding on uneven roads can be uncomfortable.

    dream brought into reality 

    The Bajaj Platina 100 is a fuel-efficient and affordable bike in this segment . The Platina 100 gets a 102cc engine which is decent but it will not produce much power for highway rides . Its mileage might vary depending on riding conditions, traffic, and individual riding style. However, the seat is reasonably cushioned, and the upright position can be comfortable for shorter rides. It is available in four color options: Black, Black Red, Black Silver, and Charcoal Black.

    Stock tyres 

    Its a very good touring machine mostly tarmac friendly.The stock tyres are useless so as the stock headlight.The seat height is the biggest concern also the seat is wide which makes more comfort but flat footing both side impossible for anyone below 5.10.The ride quality and comfort is wonderful and i wish it had traction control which will make is a good allrounder.I can tell you that versys is one of the best touring bike currently available in market at this price band.If someone is looking for a good tourer for road use then versys is the best bet and if you are looking for bit of off-road then v-storm 650 looks better.
