User Reviews
For fat tyres, good stability, economic good looking city commuter. Bought in 2020 still using it. Though modified the seat cushion as per usage. Great looking bike since launched till now. I loved the profile at first look. I have the fzs v3 version. It's good overall bike. Bulky body fat tires look great. Seating is average for both pillion and rider. I would put it as a good city commuter. But not made for long rides. If the seats were better it would have been a king. Try the seats and a long drive above 30km first to settle down with this bike. Everything except the seat cushion is great. Yes for city drives definitely recommend for performance safety & mileage. But check seats first. Read More
I have owned this bike since 14th July 2024 and ridden only 6200 km not because it was idle but because I maintained it with utmost care, all service records available. From beginning, I used Motul 7100 10W40 & maintained tyre pressure 29 F & 31 R. This bike deliver me impressive 67Km/L on 5000 RPM on 4th gear I switch to top gear only when need for speed of more than 58KM/H.Read More
