Used gladiator ss for 5 years. Best bike for daily travel. Very less maintenance and fuel economy is good too. Only downside is that spare parts are not easily available hence are a bit expensive.

The pick up is very good and it boasts of sporty looks unlike similar priced bikes in this range

Ride on the highway is super smooth. Even picks up speed very fast.

The ride position is good too. Would recommend yamaha to provide tubeless tyres and digital speedometer and tachometer.

After 5 years of riding it . I highly recommend this bike to anyone looking for daily commute to leisure travel. Highly recommended

I bought this bike from yamaha authorised re-seller, vasai. I waited for nearly 1 month for this bike to arrive and another 10-15 days for the registration.

It was a wonderful experience owning this bike.

It looks stunning and well very few bikes on the Indian road looks this good.

The power, the superior road grip, the precision, the engine, the pickup everything is trilling in this bike.

It doesn't feels the its a 125cc bike as it has even competed with 180cc bikes and done well.

I have done several long rides on this bike and it was very comfortable to ride this bike.

I have even taken this bike to goa and it performed pretty well.

The engine is very smooth and the gear shifting is very aggressive.

The braking is good enough to secure you from any kind of mishap.

The suspension system is good enough to ride is pretty bad roads.

When i bought this bike the service centres in mumbai were very less but now the scenario is totally different. Yamaha has emerged a lot of all this.

The cons of owning a yamaha:

1. Very less options of authorised service stations.

2. If a part fails, the service centre will take 2 weeks to order and fit the part.

3. The superior quality of part directly affects the parts and they are costlier.

4. If you're not prompt with taking good care of the bike, the bikes mileage will be affected.

I bought this bike in early 2015 and it has an excellent pick up and average. The only thing makes me dis-comfortable that every day it is not starting properly. I need to on the choke every morning and take for 1 km after that only it is starting. So check this thing before buying. But overall its a good bike and maintenance free.

I am using my personal bike yamaha gladiator since last 7 years. As i experienced, yamaha gladiator gives a really good mileage. It is in between 55-65. The pick up and power is also good in its class. It is meant for Indian roads for daily use. It has good ground clearance, good shock ups, comfortable seating and very low/no maintenance cost. And after all the name of the brand yamaha.

Buying experience - good as price is competitive and budget bike

Riding experience - its smooth and pick up good as compare to other 125 cc bike can be driven 110 max on flat road.

Details about looks, performance etc. - look is average, handling is good, controlling is good as well.

Servicing and maintenance - chain sprocket - worst , disk break front - need to change on every serving mostly it will be okay till 2000 kms.

Pros - engine , pickup and performance is good *125 cc.

Cons: chain sprocket , break front and rear, tappets noisy.
