Its too good for long ride its not too much comfortable for my parents mom dad back seat little bit uncomfortable otherwise its too good all my friends always demand this bike for long journey they just love it. I recommend to new genz boys, its look great and stylish i just love to drive but its too much charges in service center, i only recommend people who want to feel good nd great.. before purchase it you must take a test drive.

                  Bold and Comfortable City Bike
                  I chose the Yamaha FZ X because it looks bold and modern. I always liked Yamaha bikes. I wanted something safe for city and long rides. It was comfortable when I tested it. The color and headlight design made me choose it. I wanted a bike that looks smart and runs smooth. It was the best fit for me. My ride has been great. It is strong and steady on the road. The bike feels smooth and never shakes. I take it to work and also on weekend trips. The seat is very soft and I never get tired. The engine sounds smooth and I enjoy riding it daily. It gives a cool feel every time I start it. Yes I tell my friends to buy it if they want a stylish and safe bike. It is good for both city and highway. It looks great and rides strong. It gives good mileage and needs less care. It feels smooth and smart on the road. It is a very nice and easy bike.

                  Easy to Handle Anywhere
                  Went for this bike because it’s known for strong build and mileage. My cousin uses the same one. It’s light, easy to ride, and pocket-friendly. Also liked the simple look.

                  The review of unicorn
                  First i want a bike to be comfortable and reliable for long distances and unicorn delivery it definitely. Because I go to work daily and i never felt back pain or anything it's very comfortable and i really love to ride it. The ride is very good and comfortable but I hate to say that the bike has very bad heating issue from engine. In summers your legs gonna feel the heat expect that everything is totally fine and overall good. I definitely recommend the bike but I know it's a little bit pricey than others at this range but it gonna deliver every ruppee you spend. If you someone like me who lives in a village i definitely recommend you to buy this bike because it handles every pothole or speed breaks smoothly and it goes very well in muddy road also. The suspension is good and the efficiency is good not very good compared to others but it's okay. The service is also good just go for it.

                  Unicorn review
                  Its a family friendly bike gives a very good mileage and also has a decent engine and the engine is also very reliable engine I have completed 2 lakh kilometres with this bike but the engine is still fine. The design of the bike is not that great should be launched in new stylish versions like the new editions of glamour it design should be made more sportier and stylish so that it can match today's market Demands. If you want good mileage for daily short rides inside the city or intercity rides you should buy this its a good choice for a normal corporate guy for going to office everyday and also a good choice for small families.
