                  My first love 😘
                  First of all - Looks , OMG it looks pretty good i felt love for this thing, riding this machine is my first time on a adventure trip to leh Ladakh, it felt like smooth buttery ride , with the amazing power on demand the engine revs very fast , some times it feels jerky during gear shifts. But considering that might be a issue on my unit , Overall it's an fantastic package 😁 do get an hands on experience of minimum 100km and you will fell the words ... Rest assured performance is top notch 👍🏻 😉💯

                  Best bike I ever ride.
                  This bike is very amazing and beautiful. This bike has much power. I love to ride this bike. Best in touring and riding and gives good mileage on highways. This bike grabs attention in the city and people also love this. For riding on highways or going to mountains feels super comfortable. Where I go people look at me but sometimes in higher speed a small vibration feels. But purchasing this is my great choice. It is very good. Yes, for sure sure if you have budget for this, you must buy it because it gives that experience which can not given by other bikes in this price range. I think this is best bike at this range. You must buy it.
