Good and satisfactory as commuter daily use.

2 years ago by Rumman753 views

Well i am using this bike for around 10 months. Used the bike in every day commuting. Getting mileage 46+. Top speed around 102kph. The bike being 5 gears is very smooth. Looks is awesome. I am satisfied. Though rear tyre is thin, but remember this is a commuter bike you don't do sport and stunts with this right so it is not a problem at all. The rear suspension is a bit stiff okay with two person.

Overall bike performance is good. Bike pickup was good as per the given specs. The bike was stable in high-speed The cbs breaking system was good. The bike has a mileage of around 50 km's. Engine reliability is good. Excellent for highway tours and city usage.
Cons- Front suspension has create some sound while drive-in potholes. Engines generate heat but it's not a problem, all bikes are generating nowadays.

I care my bike very well because it's my everyday use so I will care for my bike by service.I changed my engine oil at 2500km. At 9000 km... I don't need to change the tyres..But its light is very poor when I leave the acceleration at any potholes or any bumper. Then it's difficult to see. And.An irritating sound creat by the fibre parts and the visor at high speed or on bad roads.And also. Feel a struggle from the engine at 70-80 kmph .And also one thing its the engine is very refined and very good sound. And also a bad sound creat at the time of gear change by multiple down and up swift.Okay.After all, maintenance is reasonable.

Poor quality of parts provided by honda like lock, center stand, side stand & front soccer. Service centers are very horrible. All 4 free services are done from authorized service center. Experience is very poor. Before 1st service, bike was giving mileage of 64 kmpl. Now it is giving mileage of 54 kmpl. They disturbed the carburetor setting without my permission. Very poor experience.
