                        Good and high mileage bike and looks like a sport bike. Compare to other bikes it’s under budget bike to purchase for poor people. I think it’s good in Honda segment. The beast in Honda easy to travel anywhere in 2025 the best bike, my words can’t explain my feeling such a beautiful and amazing bike.

                        One of the best bike in this range with perfect look mainly best for family riding. low service cost, low maintenance, price of service is low. If you choose this bike you can stay back with old doom style currently. Bajaj pulsar changed the versatility look of the bike so choosing old model is best choice.
