Riding performance
Well to say, she has a performance, power, torque much higher than expectation. it gives pleasure when riding on the road espically on highways. Gear shifting from 0 to 100 is awesome. thruttle noise melts the heart when it is above 100 kmph. Bike is worthy to ride and have one in a courtyard. Dream come with buying this muscle bike and riding on our detination.

The bike is great. But priced too high for indian market. Could have made more affordable IMO. Hope to see more middleweight bikes in indian market.

Decent Bike
While it's a decent bike, it doesn't stand out as the best, especially considering the variety of options available in this price range that offer superior comfort. In my opinion, some drawbacks of this bike include its weight. It's considerably heavy, which might pose challenges, especially for beginners or those transitioning from lighter bikes. Maneuvering it in city areas can be quite challenging.

Best Bike For Racing
There are a few compromises, most noticeably the shock, but overall it delivers a lovely balance of performance and handling that makes it fun. Owning an RS660 won't feel like a downward step. You have chosen to own a smaller-capacity sports bike and you can hold your head up high at any bike meet.
