Hi.. I owned a cbz xtreme 2011 model, black colour with rear disc brake. Till now i covered 99000kms in my cbz xtreme bike. I bought this bike on April 2012 and riding till now. Am professionally a marketing guy and use to travel minimum 40kms/day. Even after completing 99k still i feel the same smoothness in engine with the same engine power and mileage of about 39km/litre in city and 42-45 km/ltr in highway with a average speed of 8okm/hr. Let i explain point wise about my best bike:1. Buying experience: actually i visited showroom to buy a hunk bike with my father but we saw this beast beside the hunk bike in showcase platform of showroom. My father got impressed about this bike fairings, heavy body and wider seat. Actually i don't had any idea about bikes that time, it was my first 150cc bike and as guided my father i choose this bike and bought this bike. Showroom executives were very friendly and i got the bike in one visit. 2. Riding experience: bike's seating position is very comfortable and leg positioning is also very nice even for 6ft height riders. I have ridden 220kms one way journey with only two stops for refreshment with a pillion rider for more than 15 times, no engine over heating and no any breakdown. Only thing i found is there is a vibration when the bikes crosses 90km/hr speed. Breaking of this bike is very stable and cornering we can do without fear.3. Looks & performance:however the look was not too impressive and eye catchy when compare to other bikes of same segment. But the semi digital console with the analog tachometer looks good at night. When it comes to the performance it will give good competition with the bikes of same segments, but due to the less engine power and less torque it lags in top speed. What i observed in this bike is, this is very fast in initial pickup upto 80km/hr after that it takes more time to cross 110km/hr and the top speed what i reached is 126 km/hr . 4. Servicing and maintenance: i usually get my bike serviced for every 3000kms. Initially i serviced my bike in showroom(authorized service center) only but after 60000kms i started servicing with private mechanic who was well known to me and also a ex mechanic of hero authorized service center. Its better to change rare disc pad for every 10,000kms and front for 30,000kms. Tyres also plays a very important role in pick up and as well as in mileage, so i usually change my rare tyre for every 30000kms and front for 45000kms. My service cost never crossed 2000 for general service with oil and rare disc pad change. Overall the performance of the bike is very good and is suitable for daily commuters. 5. Pros:a. Good mileage b. Good road grip c. Comfortable riding position d. Less maintenance cost e. Reliable engine f. Good ground clearance g. Under cowl gives extra fairness to bike. cons:a. Vibration after 80km/hr speed b. Not comfortable for the riders less than 5ft height c. Has less top speed compare to other 150cc bikes d. No kicker e. Headlight is not suitable for long riding at night f. Pillow seat is not comfortable for senior citizens.Finally i proud to be a owner of cbz xtreme. Am clocking 1lakh kilometers in this month with not even one engine problem. But even if i buy a new bike i will keep my cbz xtreme, bcz am in love with it.Thanks.
