I've been using Twsiter since May, 2011 completed 43, 000 Kms and able to give authentic review on this bike
First 3 Months:-
(1) Good Mileage -75-88kmpl
(2)good looks
Next 6 Months:-
(3)Problems with Gear shifting- Still persisting and non rectifiable
(4)Dangerous if riding more than 50KMPH as bike will be thrown away if applying brakes
(5)Chain worn out
Next 6 Months:-
(6) Experienced extremely pathetic after sales service AS FREE SERVICES GOT OVER and each and every time the service people will tell some sort of wear and tear .Average cost of servicing is Rs900
(7) Had bitter experience from EVM Honda, Vytilla as the so called mechanic drained out engine oil and didnt replaced it Next 6 Months:-
(8)Replaced Rear Tyre(Rs1500), Break shoe-twice(Rs 800), Chain & sprocket -=twice(Rs 4000, including waste chain lube), Replacement of airfilter -thrice(Rs 2400), Ball bearing of handle(Rs 700), Sppedometer cable replacement -twice(Rs240), Speedometer repair(Rs 50)+ Service charges for 14 Correct intime service from Genuine Honda dealers
(Spend about Rs17000 for maintenance in 2 yrs)
VERDICT:-
SATIFACTORY only if riding 10-20 km per day, Getting only 55 Kmpl now after replacing rear tyre withthat of Stunner
ZERO riding comfort with narrow rear tyres and less friction
HIGH maintenance cost and No value for money(Less resale value too)
