Bajaj Auto has launched another BS6 motorcycle silently and this time around, it is the Platina 110 H-Gear. The new model has been launched at a price of Rs 59,802 (ex-showroom, Delhi). Interestingly, the bike is now available in a single disc brake variant which means that the company has discontinued the drum brake trim. With the new BS6 avatar, for obvious reasons, the Platina 110 H-Gear sees a price increment over the BS4 model, Rs 3,431 to be precise. The price of the outgoing BS4 disc brake variant in comparison was Rs 56,371 (prices, ex-showroom, Delhi). Just like the previous BS4 model, the new BS6 Platina 110 H-Gear is available for sale in a total of two colour options of Black and Red.
Speaking of the changes, the biggest one comes on the engine front. Powering the bike is the same 115cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine which is now BS6 compliant. The engine is now good for developing respective power and torque outputs of 8.44hp and 9.81Nm. That said, the new model witnesses a slight drop in power as the BS4 engine used to make 8.5hp. The biggest highlight of the Bajaj Platina 110 H-Gear is a five-speed transmission system, something which is rare to see on a 110cc motorcycle. The changes on the BS6 model are limited to mechanicals only.
That said, the BS6 Bajaj Platina 110 H-Gear continues to get the same design, cycle parts and also the same set of features as its predecessor. The bike gets a halogen headlamp with LED DRLs, black alloy wheels and a digital-analog instrument cluster with gear shift guide. Suspension system of the motorcycle comprises of conventional telescopic forks upfront along with Nitrox-charged twin spring shock absorbers at the rear. Braking on the BS6 model is taken care of with the help of a 240mm disc brake upfront along with a 110mm drum brake at the rear.
