      Im using Destini XTEC from last 1 month. It really good in terms of mileage which is around 50 and comfort but when it comes to performance it is not that good you are expecting from product of hero. You may feel vibration at higher RPM or at max speed and control not so good. I will recommend Destini only if you are using it for normal city ride of around 10-20km per day.
