This is great news! As someone who owned a Hero motorcycle in Nepal in my college days, I can speak with experience that the motorcycles being assembled by dealers/distributors leads to a lot of QC and QA issues.

My Xpulse 200 came without the alternator wire properly connected which led to the battery not being charged while the motorcycle was running. That was located only later and had to be rectified at a service center. While my issue was a minor one, I have heard about bigger issues from other Hero owners in Kathmandu.
