Hello to all, I have been using this bike since January 2013. It is just little more than 04 years, I have been using this bike.
It is a very sturdy and reliable bike, I ride my bike almost 40 Kms 4 to 5 days a week, on asphalt roads, of Bhilai and Raipur region, in all weather conditions.
Most of the time I ply double seated. I must comment that its wheel span, wheel size and weight of the bike, are excellently optimised, giving a sturdy feeling to the rider.( even when speeding at 60-70KMPH). Its front and rear "Shock absorbers" are well optimised when the vehicle is loaded with a man weighing not more than 70-80 kg. max.
This bike is having a 4 stroke, 4 valve engine, ( and 2 nos spark plugs), with a 12 V, Self-motor for providing an electric starting system. It has a manual 4 position, Left Leg operated gear lever and a Wet Clutch mechanism, with cable link control by the Left-hand lever, (on the steering handle) for smoothening and optimising the engine power to its Rear wheels. And at the Right leg side, Rear wheels Breaks are provided. Front Wheel Brake control is provided with the Right-hand side lever, on the steering handle. I use SAE 20W-50W engine oil, and requires 1ltr, for every oil change. Fuel consumption rate as observed by me is 65KMPL. And it has a good Pickup, with a normal grade of Petrol available in our region.
Till date, I have never experienced any "Bike starting problem". I have till now replaced the 12V battery, 3 times. I must say that all the electric systems, are well matched. Head-lights, Back-lights, Side-lights, Break-lights have good illumination and has a reasonably good service life. As one can understand that I have replaced the Headlight bulb, only once, (that too, five months back). Now within few days, I am going to replace for the first time the Rear wheel's drive Chain and Sprockets.
And so far all is good with my bike.
Thanks and Regards,
A.K.Das.
