The Honda and Hero Group officially separated some time back and the Splendor bike is now produced in India by the Hero Group. Hero MotoCorp is India biggest two-wheeler manufacturer. To promote the sales of the already popular Splendor bike, Hero MotoCorp announces exciting finance schemes, especially during the festive season to attract potential buyers as well as existing buyers to upgrade to the new Splendor bike.
