The first time I riden on this bike when it was just launched and my college senior bought it. Since then I had a passion about this bike and had an ambition to buy this asap.
Things changed and I landed in a job after College and bought this bike in March 2002.
Since then I have enjoy riding it everyday.
There are many bikes in town, but this is class apart.
This is the most good looking bike and I can bet upon it.
Many companied tried to copy the looks but were unsuccessful.
In terms of maintenance, this is the most efficient bike which doesn’t gives any problem at all.
About performance I will say I drive this bike at 80-100 Kmph on Outer Ring Road Bangalore and love the ride. Its very smooth and comfortable. The bike remains in full control till this speed. Never tried beyond this.
People say that its doesn’t gives a good Mileage. I say that Mileage should not be the only factor while deciding this. Agree its less if you have to drive 200 Km/day its not a cost effective solution. But if you drive 40-80 Km I feel its just a matter of 20-30 Rs/day which is not a big sum when it has everything so good about it
