                  Great bike
                  Overall the bike is great for both city and highway rides as I stand 6.2 ft at 88 kg and it quite nimble as well as the weight distribution is very good with great torque and power figures. It’s a comfortable bike but the rear suspension is a bit stiff which can easily be resolved by replacing it with the classic Nitrox ones and it’s decently priced as well. However the biggest cons I found was the front led headlight which is honestly pathetic and the unreliable fuel tank indicator.

This is basically confortable with both solo and pillon, and for long trips you can go for this bike. Just speed would be less rest is ok.

                  Meteor 350
                  I'm riding this bike on highway pretty good performance and i love this bike and i drove it from kozhikode to idukki very good comfort and no back pain, i reach idukki about 5.5 hours and that is prestty fast. High perfomance and a mileage of 30 km per litre, i think this is decent good comfort can ride smoothly 250-300 km without any strain in back good sitting position in long ride we can get upto 35 km per litre. Yes of course good mileage for a 350 cc cruiser good perfomance, good comfort, decent mileage of 30-35 kilo metre per litre good service from royal enfield i think it is best in the market with this price range.

                  Comfortable bike
                  My friend suggested that it would be better and yes its better plus best for long and slow riding so much comfortable. People need to go classy over flashy. If you want slow ride and comfort better it is good. Comfort is awesome when you are riding all eyes on you but it's down clearance a bit off but it's ok, design is awesome and not feeling any bumps. I ride 1284km till now and it's awesome and great. Go for it Yes of course, I recommend this bike to buy but if you dont feel slow ride maybe this bike is not for you. Its very Heavy to handle in speed the fear of accident can take places so ride safe and slow.

                  Neat condition bike with awesome road presence
                  This bike is very good while daily riding is the main factor as the mileage is very good like 43 kmpl in city traffic and the maintenance cost is very low if you ride the bike properly. Also the road presence particularly of this edition is great. If you wish to look good while getting an optimum performance then you can definitely go for it. In my case this bike is in neat condition without any damages or missing parts. All the services done on time and so the warranty is valid.

                  The Yamaha R15 V4 is a popular 155cc entry-level
                  I had a brother who likes riding this old r15 and I was small and didn't knew any super bikes at all, and this was my first super bike which had all sharpnes at edges, the colour, the speed, it had some personality. Its been amazing bike so far, smooth, light weight. Its top speed is pretty good. It gives good mileage. It is very nice for long rides. Performance of the bike is so good. Suspensions works very well on road. Yes, for sure but take my opinion and explore different bike, It may have something that this bike wouldn't have that charm but you can go for it, if you want sporty look and a good racing bike. Its nice.

                  r15 V4 Review
                  The r15 v4 has the old punch while handling the BS6 engine with good aerodynamics and aggressive seating position. Its very easy to reach 140+ with default setting while it was not made for the long drive push, we can try the limits where I've driven around 25,000km in the same bike as well. I love it as my soul.
