                  The review of unicorn
                  First i want a bike to be comfortable and reliable for long distances and unicorn delivery it definitely. Because I go to work daily and i never felt back pain or anything it's very comfortable and i really love to ride it. The ride is very good and comfortable but I hate to say that the bike has very bad heating issue from engine. In summers your legs gonna feel the heat expect that everything is totally fine and overall good. I definitely recommend the bike but I know it's a little bit pricey than others at this range but it gonna deliver every ruppee you spend. If you someone like me who lives in a village i definitely recommend you to buy this bike because it handles every pothole or speed breaks smoothly and it goes very well in muddy road also. The suspension is good and the efficiency is good not very good compared to others but it's okay. The service is also good just go for it.
