                  390 is better in segment
                  Looking so pretty 😍 the row power acceleration is most better than 300 cc bike seat High so comfortable and maintenance cost is on pocket money This allows for slick, clutchless up and downshifts, improving shift times and acceleration. I love this bike and suggest for everyone I also prefer to my friend circle..

                  Overall it is very good
                  It is one of the best bikes in this segment for performance. It is a bit on the comfortable side. Maintenance cost is ok . It is very fast though for a 300 cc bike. The clutch is a bit stiff which is not bad but for long rides may cause discomfort. The mileage is good for Highway and thee city.overall it is very good and very pleased to have it
