About the Reviewer

The GOOD:
1. Baby Bonneville
2. Initial power delivery till 60KMPH
3. Nice exhaust note
4. Striking colors
5. Although the headlight is halogen, the throw and spread are very good.
6. Excellent paint quality of the petrol tank
7. Excellent riding triangle with slightly rear-set foot pegs.
8. Gears slot exactly without any jumps or missing gears.
9. Amaron battery is provided as OEM fit.
10. Extra fuses provided by RE in the fuse box, in case anything goes wrong with the fuses in use.
The BAD:
1. Lots of plastic parts that are inferior in quality (especially the headlight, and side covers)
2. No place to keep the documentation or any stuff
3. Inconsistent build. Especially the welding portions leave a lot to be desired
4. No discounts and waiting period for a newly launched bike.
5. Stock mirrors vibrate a lot during lugging and once the speed crosses 80KMPH
Could be better:
1. Switch gear is okay but can be improved.
2. Feature set when compared to its peers (Ronin)
3. Although the stock MRF looks good, it does not do justice to the bike. Need to be replaced with a grippy rear tire
4. RE should have concealed the wiring much more effectively. (RE please copy the wiring stuff from Bonneville)
5. In the days of LED lights, RE is still struck with Halogens.
6. The clutch is on the heavier side and could have been lighter.
7. Suspension should be a bit softer. I feel it is on the stiffer side
8. Brakes are just ok.
9. Costly accessories. – RE accessories are priced very high
Things that will not improve:
1. High taxes on vehicles – Governments (central and state) have collected 60K taxes in the total of 2 Lacs that I paid (on-road price).
2. Service – Unless the technicians are paid well and we improve their dignity of work, the service will be bad. We as a society look down on the people working in services, and we get what we deserve. In addition to the technicians, the dealers also try to fleece the customers with unnecessary add-ons and extras. I do all minor repairs and fix punctures myself without depending on the service people.
3. Quality – Companies take customers for granted, as we have useless laws protecting the customer. The quality of Hunter is just about okay. Within a week of purchase, and after riding about 150 Km, fork oil seals broke, and fork oil was leaking. The bike was with the service center for two days (none of my vehicles went to the service center so early) and with all the front dismantled and attached once again.
