I am Ravi Kumar K using Passion Plus since March 2004.
Till now I didn’t get any problem with this bike... earlier I used to ride Splendor. On Splendor I met regularly with accedents... because of light weight and very speed (pick up wise) & on road grip is less (Easy to sckid the bike).
After buying this bike I nerver met with any accedent, I riden all the bikes (Bajaj, Honda & TVS). I never felt this much comfort. I am not saying those are bad but this bike is the BEST one to choose.
Fule Consumption: Yes it will give you in between 50 - 55 Kms/litre. For long drive may be inceased somewhat 3Kms. thats it..
Now my bike giving me 60-65 Kms/lit..! I am riding my bike at max 50 speed. I controlled to that extent.., its giving. I am managing to keep speed in between 40-50.
Comfort: Very comfort with very long & Broad Seat you never find this much comfort in any other Bike. I am 100% sure about this...
Reliability: Yes till now I never felt any problem... even tires & engine... U can reliay on this bike... U can go for long drive...
Handing & control: I felt this is very crucial thing in any bike. In this bike it has full control in ur driving. More over Handling position is very good. Presure on ur spinalcord is less. So, position (the way u sit on ur bike) point of view this is the best. U can’t straign that much even if u riding the whole day.
Looks: from looks wise this one little low comaritively Bajaj Pulsur & Honda Products. I obey this... But u have these many advantages in this, so those are overriding this limitation. I think this can be neglizible...
Resale value: (I feel this also important if u go for any bike) Yes this Bike resale vaue is also high so u can satisfy with that way also...
Height: Yes for short guys it wont work. U shold be min 5’.5"... :-)
Anyway, u can drive once before buying any bike and take suggetions from Machanics. They knows very well on review wise. I suggested this bike for my close friends they are all happy (Healthwise also).
Whenever U give for servicing I suggest give in the showroom and choose one mechanic in that showroom. And give to him only that will be better. He will know what are all pros & cons of ur bike.
I have already given my review for Maruthi 800 you can see on this link:
