Good bike under 200cc
It's been 2.5 years I am using this bike, performance it brings is top notch, coming to mileage it around 45km/liter for me . Only issue is the fuel indicator is less accurate, it always shows low fuel. May be because it needs to have atleast 3 literes. On highway it feels amazing to drive this bike. Otherwise great bike.
