1. Buying experience with hero is always good.
2. Riding experience about the xtreme can be summarized in three words- comfortable, handling, maintenance. The bike is very comfortable to ride specially on long rides, as it is having very precisely made seating posture and appropriate seat height. The seat and height is adjusted such a way that you only slightly lean forward offering no fatigue at all during highway rides. You can stretch 100 km without stopping.
Handling and diamond shaped chassis is very well suited for good riding speeds of 80 -90 km/h on highways. The rpm hit 6000 without much buzz and very helpful.
