                  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.

                  Bike's performance is an excellent, powerful pickup, starts easily, one handed used only, driven 7700 km only within 3 and half years. Overall experience is memorable, sound is normal, highway experience is totally amazing, driving R15S vs other bikes is totally different, average can be maintained if we drive well.

                  The best bike of segment
                  Its a stylish bike. Very good looking and powerful with a muscular body and heavy duty. I love the bike since beginning, my dream bike and very solid bike. Better in every aspect in mileage, great in looks and performance. It's very sharp looking and comfortable for long rides also a good mileage provider, good acceleration and pickup, fast, smooth, tension free riding and less maintenance bike for sure. In this price range, it's the best. The best bike. I would definitely recommend to young guys, not for old grandpa's, it gonna make you feel royal and elegant, very strong presence and that's why I am recommending this bike to all of my friends.

                  Pocket rocket
                  The only bike in the segment which provides you punchy power and aggressive position it may have some cons still who are above 5.5 height can ride this rocket comfortable. Personally I love riding sports bike and this is seriously a legendary one in the segment also from 200cc segment. I reached upto 153 of speed on a highway which is so much within a 155cc segment. End of the day its very sexy for enthusiasts who prioritise power over features. So good i mean its powerful but not that torquey its so light weight and too much powerful no braking issues for me personally and mileage i got is around 42 to 45 in city and around 50 on highways too good for college students but you get back pains and spine problems not suitable for long rides good for flicking in traffic. Yes i do, The things you have to consider while buying this is its power packed for a beginner its good for track not suitable for long rides and also you have to be confident while driving this when VVA kicks in you just fly.

                  The best starting Sports Bike
                  Great bike overall. Fantastic control and road presence. Wish I had purchased this bike earlier. Crazy engine performance. Loved it. The bikes gear shift mechanism is very smooth. Easily touches 100+ speeds with full control. Great impactful headlights and maneuverability even on bumpy roads. Very easy to handle when compared to other similar bikes.
