I have my new Rkarizma since 2 months have traveled 1800+ kms, max speed 141 kms/hr and still no problems apart from regular maintenance.
The battery is really impressive till now I have never faced any problem to start the bike, just one press of button and engine is roaring.
In rain I faced the problem of start, my bike was not starting at signal. There was no kick and I was really in panic. I took the bike aside put it in neutral and the bike started.
Yes something this happens specially in rains that you bike will not start in gears else starting the bike is just fun.
I live in Pune where there is bumper to bumper traffic and bikes handling is good.
Just it takes littler larger space for U-turn.It does not require much of maintenance, just because of my riding style I need to change the OIL every 2-months and 1000 kms (I ride very rough and most of the time above 100 and long drives).
I face problem of gear being hard when the engine oil is OLD but just replacing the OIL solves the problem.In the drive of 1800+ kms, only one my clutch plates were destroyed.
I replaced it for 1600 Rs. And this was since my brother does lot of stunt with bike so there is lot of pressure on clutch and gear.
Couple of times he has submerged the bike in sand at beach putting immense pressure on engine to come out of it. But the engine never ditched him.
This game was part of challenge.Breaks are really just excellent, I come to halt from 130 kms/hrs to 0 kms/hrs with in few seconds without skidding my bike. Just you need to press both the brakes at very high speed.
It is bike for those who are fond of stunts and high speed. It is not for the normal commuter. I can say it is truly one of the real highway bikes!
