Restore smooth, wobble-free steering with the Hero Genuine Handle Cone Set / Ball Racer Set (Ball Races Kit) – Part No. 25K160S. OEM-correct for Splendor+, Super Splendor, Passion Plus, and Karizma applications listed by Hero, ensuring proper fit, longer bearing life, and safer front-end control.
The Handle Cone Set / Ball Racer Set (commonly searched as Ball Races Kit / cone set) is the steering head bearing kit that sits in the front steering stem. It supports the handle/steering movement and keeps the front end stable under braking, potholes, and everyday city riding. When these races wear out, riders typically notice handle tightness, notchiness at centre, wobble, or play in the steering—all of which can affect confidence and safety.
This is a Hero Genuine part with Hero’s official naming and verified model applicability under Part No. 25K160S, covering Splendor+, Super Splendor, Passion Plus, and Karizma as per Hero’s listing. For best results, always replace as a set and pack correctly with good quality bearing grease to prevent premature wear.
Choosing OEM matters here: steering components demand correct tolerances. Local or duplicate cone sets may feel fine initially but can develop play early, cause uneven wear, and lead to repeated labour cost.
At underthehood.co.in, we focus on supplying genuine Hero spares with proper packaging and careful dispatch, so you receive the right part number for your service or repair without doubts.

Yes. Hero lists 25K160S as Handle Cone Set / Ball Racer Set with defined model applicability.
Q2. Will this fit my Hero Splendor+ BS6 / OBD2 model?
It is listed for Splendor+. Because sub-variants can differ by year/trim, confirm part number 25K160S with your mechanic/Hero ASC before ordering.
