It came to Indian Roads in 1983, it was a period of overwhelming bicycles like Royal enfield Bullet 350cc, Yezdi: Roadking, Classic, Rajdoot 250 standard. It was first indian bicycle with twin motor and 6 gears( 1 down 5 up). Tuning of two motor requires abilities other astute mileage comes down to 6-7 Km/lit. Appropriately tuned RD High torque(HT)can give mileage15-20 Km/lit. It can best speed of 165km/hr despite the fact that I have not attempted, but rather on thruway I had 120km/hr with fantastic street grasp. Brakeing of this bicycle is amazing with front circle brake.
A few individuals think RD remains for Rapid passing, it is genuine if pace is not controlled, in light of the fact that it has got rocket get o-100 km/hrs in 7 sec. To begin with release of RD had toomuch power for any normal rider which prompt an excess of mishaps. Organization presented Low torque motors for Indian activity conditions.
