User Reviews

A performance bike with easy handling for city

I recommend this bike because of its performance with easy handling for city riding, suitable for anyone. With at least one year of riding experience of a 250cc bike. Throttle experience and braking is my favourite part. Additionally, this LC4c engine is enough for an average tourer.Read More

Honda Shine Long term review

It's like a perfect bike for daily commuters as it gives amazing mileage and comfort but lacks features like ABS and other rider aids. Safety can be improved too except these, it's a good bike. I like it.Read More

Yamaha XSR155

A really good bike in this segment! The VVA makes the riding experience next-level. It reminds me of the RX100 but offers even more power and mileage. Getting 50 kmpl with this engine is phenomenal, and on the highway, it even delivers 60 kmpl. It is easy to manoeuvre in heavy traffic due to its weight and agility. The riding posture is also comfortable and doesn't make you feel lethargic.Read More

Easy to ride and stylish look , perfect colour and good milleage, the comfort of this bike is very nice. And the safety for the all the riders especially for the women, they can easily handle the bike we easily turn and move the bike through the ride. Mileage is nice.

Ready to Adventure.

I also have a Duke, Adv has covered all the issues which I have faced on Duke when I use to go on long rides, Ride is also plush coupled with a great engine which proves itself on all grounds. Also it has a decent fuel efficiency considering its engine performance. Bike's comfortable its mileage is also good I get a decent range, but the engine won't feel as raw as BS4 duke, great electronics and safety. Just having engine oil consumption on higher side. Also the Trampler tyres give more life than Turanzas which came initially. Long hauling person should definitely buy this bike, long rides are so hassle free. And comfortable, also if you have to carry any luggage they have provided good anchoring points. Tieing a back pack or a duffle bag is easy.Read More
