            Safety riding
            It seems to me a very good commuter which doubles down as a tourer. It has a slight long stroke nature which tremendously helps its cause. You will feel the torque nature of the motor in high gears. Mileage would be around 40. The only gripe would be the body panel quality. Also best for driving safely.

            A Budget Superbike
            This is the first bike I bought ...but after that I realised why I bought it..very very worst customer care support and service centre are worst in my area.Apart from that Smooth experience with bike and it is more comfortable only one thing service costs are too high.if you maintain it good then it will best for the money.But it's a good superbike category falls under budget.
