Bajaj Platina 110 H-Gear BS6 Launched In India; Priced At Rs. 59,802

The BS6 Bajaj Platina 110 H-Gear has been launched in India at a price of Rs. 59,802 (ex-showroom, Delhi). The motorcycle now gets just one variant and the drum brake version has been discontinued. The Platina 110 H-Gear is basically a Platina with a 5-speed gearbox and a few other updates. The Platina has been the cornerstone for the company's sales in the 100 - 110 cc segments and even after five years, it continues to rake in good numbers for Bajaj Auto. The BS6 model gets a 115 cc fuel-injected engine which makes 8.4 bhp at 7,000 rpm and the peak torque output stays the same too at 9.81 Nm at 5,000 rpm.

The motorcycle continues to get the 5-speed gearbox, which is unique in the 110 cc motorcycle segment. There is a link type gear-shifter and the all-down gear-shift pattern is similar to any of the 100 - 110 cc bikes with a 4-speed gearbox. Bajaj says that the 'H' in H Gear stands for 'Happy' and 'Highway'. Bajaj says that the 5th gear not only improves the performance but the efficiency as well. Yes, the Platina H Gear has a claimed fuel efficiency of 84 kmpl. The Platina 110 H Gear has a 240 mm disc up front along with Bajaj's anti-skid braking system. Apart from the BS6 engine, there is practically no change on the motorcycle.
