                  Review after 8k kms usage
                  Baja. Freedom bio is ideal for long commute as it is fuel efficient, low maintenance and economical friendly. Dual fuel adds flexibility although slightly less powered but sufficient for travel without pillion and not much heavy luggage. Ridden 8000 plus kms ok pure CNG, less than 200kms used on petrol, I can say ride on CNG is reliable as Bajaj has been on CNG vehicles like in Auto rickshaw from decades. As said earlier it is slightly less powered but enough for single person travel. I would recommend as the bike itself is easy to ride although it is 148 kg but feels very lightweight while riding. With a great mileage of 90 plus on cng and may be 60 plus on petrol ( coz ridden vert less on petrol)

                  Best bike in milage
                  Good mileage in this segment. I think need improvement breaking pads. Need sit comfortable raider and pillion. Light was good. Tier grip good. City mileage good. Best for long way and highway riding. This bike made a best tourist bike. But after long time bike riding bike hit. Good bike in 125cc segment.

                  Hero Honda Splendor Review
                  It is easy to maintain and less costly for maintenance, and it has good mileage compared to other bikes in the same segment. It can be used for daily purposes, as it is less weight and easy to manage. It's good for students and daily workers. I liked it because it is easy to handle, as it is less weight, and I can manage to ride at 50 km/h with the weight of 300 kgs, and it did not have any troubles between any ride and can be used for long distances but with frequent intervals. Yes, I strongly recommend the bus for beginners. It is easy to learn, and as it is less weight, we can easily handle and balance it, but we can't carry more luggage. I strongly recommend buying it, and it has a lower maintenance cost.
