I am using this bike for the past 11 months. So here I want to share my experience.
These are usually commuter class motorcycle engines with a decent power package. Speedometer peaks around 99 to 102 kmph with vibrations above 80/85 kmph which sometimes disturbs a lot. Decent acceleration as well. Fuel consumption says 40-45 km or a lil more for a litre, which is indeed not a complete satisfactory as it is consuming more petrol than other bikes like super splendor which is also a same 125cc engine and gives whooping 60-65kmpl. So I am not at all happy with it.
Good riding positions and control plus handling for a person with normal height but not short.
Shock absorbers prove their worth in Indian roads with 2 on board.
There are some other demerits also.
Gear shifting sometimes is not pleasant. Although the parts used are of high quality but Honda should definitely look into its gear shifting mechanisms. At times the carburetor auto tunes to high. But I believe it is easily fixable. Although the electric start works well but not very reliable. Need for a kick starter as battery tends to weaken up eventually and may trouble specially during winters. Need to develop a better mud guard for rear wheel as it gets very untidy for the rider and passenger during rains. They should have to fix it properly.
Overall there is nothing new in this bike so i'll not recommend this bike if the person thinks that it's average is not good.
