  • Great basic transportation
    By  (I am an Owner) on Apr 13, 2014

    Pro: - affordable, cheap to insure

    - nice looking machine

    - decent power, nice handling

    - reliable

    Cons: - only 45 MPG, city or freeway. At first I thought it was just my bike, but this is typical mileage for this bike.

    - a bit on the heavy side for a 250

    - ...

    All-around, great as a commuter or for day-trips. It is affordable and reliable, does everything you need.

    Only real negative is it's just a bit on the boring side.

  • Its a great bike! :)
    By  (I am a Writer) on Feb 17, 2012

    Besides looking sexy on the street, it's faster than 90% of the cats that you'll encounter. It's reliable, it's never let me down. It does not waste excessive amounts of gas either. Great for a beginner or those that just want to save gas.

    I have rode many bikes in india this is the best for our country.Very comfortable and a great acceleration just what youngsters look for.Though its a bit expensive but really worth the value.If you can manage to get 3Lakh Rupees there is no better bike and trust me on that :)
