Good Things

- Comfortable riding position
- Gets great styling
- Excellent performance from the 155cc engine
- Equipped with traction control system, quickshifter
- Streetfighter looks begs for attention
- 250cc engine churns out good performance
- Cheap after sales
Could be better
- There's engine vibrations at higher revs
- 5-speed gearbox is clunky
- Pricing is on the expensive side
- Little aggressive for city riding
- Spares are a bit expensive
- Misses out on dual-channel ABS
- Fit and finish could be better
