                  My riding experience
                  The biggest reason is its appearance. The floating single seat, wide rear tyre and minimalist design made it stand out. I loved the custom bike look straight from the factory. That made me choose this bike. As a solo rider, I find the seat comfortable for daily commute and short to medium highway trips although the suspension is a bit firm on rough roads. As for mileage, it is around 25 to 30 kmpl in normal riding. A solo rider would love this bike for various purposes such as everyday use or short commute or even long road trips in various terrain. The fuel to kilometre capacity is not a problem for me. Considering the current petrol crisis in India, this bike is quite manageable.

                  The guy who loves solo traveling
                  My friend had this bike first so I tried it for few long trips and I fell in love with the performance and smoothness of this beauty. Its fuel cost is more but manageable. I usually prefer performance. Looks are also good. For comfort, its good but its better for solo travelling. I travel solo pretty often, so its a best choice for me. It performs well in hilly area which was truly unexpected for me. Sometimes, its just the heat problem, my leg got burned while riding, so better be careful about it. Well, if you prefer solo travelling or like normal travel then go for it. Its better for people who can handle heavier bikes and have experience. If you can manage the fuel costs in today's economy then go for it.

                  It's Best bike
                  Its look is very good, even people of short height can drive it and after modification it looks very good. 3 people can sit comfortably. I have driven it a lot. I have it, that is why I want to buy a new one. I think it is very good and gives an average of between 45 to 55 and is very comfortable. I have already told you that this is a very good bike. It is seen in many places and I like it very much. This is a favourite bike of many people. This is a comfortable bike. While travelling on a long journey, it will not cause you much trouble, nor your hands experience any discomfort. I have seen many times that people get exhausted on long trips but this bike is very comfortable. In my opinion, you should buy this bike.

                  Best in the segment for Cruising
                  I chose this bike for the comfort in city as well as long rides. I have driven this bike for more 40K Km and I am happy with this bike. The only concern I have is about the safety as the leg guard is too short compared to the other bike and the as there is a gap from where you rest you feet for shifting gear and braking as it does not cover the feet. The ride is good, it is low maintenance if you take good care of the bike, also long routes are amazing as there is no fatigue. Cons is just about the handling as this a cruiser bike so it is not everyone ride. Definitely this bike is for the people who like comfort low maintanence. If you get a hand on the back seat then the comfort is next level. The mileage is good in the city and if you go for a long ride then you will get a good mileage which can be 40 plus.

                  Long Term Ownership Review
                  The bike is super amazing even after owning it over 6 years it is smooth runs clean and has a muscular and aura refining road presence. Just the performance of the bike on uphill feels a bit low. Maintenance is also reasonable and the bike gives 35-40 kmpl average on daily commute. The seat is super comfortable for long touring and it can be used for 200-300 km long trips.
