I purchased this bike 4 days ago. It was very quick delivery(the same day) in Silicon Honda BSK. 3rd stage, Bangalore. Took test drive before buying. Sales executives were OK in interacting.
The looks are not that great, however I opted for this bike because of my daily commute to office with relaxed ride with comfort, bit of power for doubles & mileage. The speedometer & fuel gauge are normal analogue & nothing great on this area. I do not care of these things. However I felt that trip meter should have been there which will be useful to check mileage & distance traveled to a particular place.
I felt very happy when I rode it first day. The engine sound is very much low and I checked by raising the acceleration in the signal to check whether it is ON or OFF. Suspensions are moderate. I feel back suspension is not that good as I expected. However I was told that after riding around 1000 KMs, it will get even better.
I observed that gear shifting is not that smooth in this bike. I tried different positions while shifting gears to get smoother change but not successful. Lower to higher gears are bit OK but higher lower makes lot of sound as if you are new to geared bikes. I also noticed the gear will struck quite often while shifting higher to lower.
The other thing I observed is that, there is a jerk in the initial acceleration. Even at neutral if I raise the acceleration in the initial point it jerks. This is giving me problem in traffic. I need to check with service center on this.It gave me 50 KM mileage for the first 1 liter of petrol. I understand that this will improve further.
Overall this is good bike for daily commuters.
