                  VERY GOOD PERFORMANCE
                  Service and maintenance charge is normal, mileage is 50 - 55 kmpl on highway, 45-50 kmpl in cities and streets. Overall, it is a quite good bike with good performance and minimal costs. Everyday rides upto hundred kms can be done easily, I ride daily around 80 kms and it is very easy for me and it's a sports bike even with only 125 CC engine.

                  The flying beast..
                  This is one of my favourite bike in the list and i selected this bike as my first one in white and black combo also it has sporty look and everything is good also i'm already using a bajaj bike from last 4 years and thats the reason i again choosen the bajaj pulser. The long rides are comfortable engine performance with the mileage speed its control throttle everything is smooth and I have ride 312 km from my city Farrukhabad to ghaziabad nonstop and it was just flying smoothly. Yes i would really like to recommend this bike to all the person or youth who want their first bike to be a sports bike with average range budget. The bajaj pulsar ns 125 is the one where they can go for it without any hesitation.

                  Suv scooter
                  Build quality superb compare to other like chetak and ola service is also good and more over very important is it's our India brand. I like our nation product and also super ride experience my advice is please increase the range. Range is smaller than other but build quality is good and as well as comfortable for all areas, it's also smoothly ride on difficult road also it's very stylish scooter and could you please increase the range. Stylish design and comfort also good continuously ride long also because of give footrest also that's why it's comfortable to compare the other also carry the heavy weight also small disadvantage is range so look about this.
