After three years of driving, I'm giving my experience below:
Pros:
1.Very good build quality and engine performance.
Small size and lighter, so easy to handle.
Good and confident braking at normal speed, but speed above 70 kmph stopping is risky.
4.Very good stock MRF tyres, wet road grip is good.
If going doubles or family then suspension is comfortable otherwise as a single rider you end up with wrist pain and back pain.
Mileage is around 47(City) to 55(highway) with rider alone.
Headlamp beam through is good at night especially if its totally dark without street lights.
Cons:
One can feel a lot of friction while going slow. if you are riding slow you can feel the tyre braking due to friction. so rear tyre easily wears.
Auto start problem is there if you don't use the scooter for a couple days too.
Seeing bike like front suspension I bought this scooter, but its not comfortable. It bumps on small uneven surface also. so, head lamp needs alignment after riding on bad roads.
I got wrist pain riding on bad roads. My odometer cable got cut bumping on pot hole.
Hard and stiff seat- so riding long distance causes back pain.
You cant Kick start without centre stand-on like bike.
Kicker, Pillion footrest, centre stand all packed in a very close and small area on the left side. so one might get hurt if not watchful.
If Pillion rider is short, he / she may find difficult reaching for foot rest.
Left big footrest is fitted all-the-way back, so person sitting behind in has to reach for it.
Too small for husband, wife and 2 kids.
Note: Before buying get quotation from different showrooms.
I bought from Bikes India-Agaram Junction, Chennai, actually they call themselves as Ambal Motors but bill name is Bikes India.
I stopped going to them after my buying experience, they are money minded.
