This was my first bike. I used it for 6 months, by which time I totally trashed it! Luckily I could dispose it! But the bike is really not that bad!
First, it's the best bike on Indian roads when it comes to riding comfort. You sit like a rock in the saddle! Drive it for as long as you want without any backache!
Second, it's got amazing braking! Stops like a stone when you hit the disc! CAUTION - use it carefully, or you may end up on the tarmac with a busted nose bridge!
Third, the first really sexy bike to hit the Indian market. It's miles ahead of the competition! In other words, it's got great looks!
Now for the bad points!
First, coz the bike is a four stroke, it's really kinda heavy. Don't try lifting it alone, or you might get a hernia!
Second, because it's a chunkier, souped-up four stroke, it you like to speed, then after a while, your entire front assembly is GOING to start RATTLING like two Rattlesnakes mating! Might even throw your fork outta line. It's really irritating!
Thirdly, if you have a crash. Because its a heavy bugger, all the plastic parts are going to go smash! and they cost a pretty bundle! Also every time you fall, get the fork straightened out!
Fourthly! Mileage man mileage!
Guys, lets face it. It's either mileage or power, you can't have both!
Get this bike ONLY if you drive slow and want to impress the girls! It's miles ahead of that ugly beast - the Karizma, any day!
