It is the best bike on road. We Indians never go by performance of the material. It is just show biz and glamour which always win. It is only bad luck that this bike HEAT did’nt cater to the fancy.It had every thing to perform on road.I am telling this because I own a HEAT and it has just crossed 51000 Kms.I have not spent even one paise on spares.
Except an oil change at every 5000 kms and service once in 10000 kms.I have not even had any problems with clutch or throttle cables. I changed the rear brake shoes at 38600 kms. Front brake shoes are still going fine. Unbelievable stuff. It is very sad that we do not encourage such things.I came to know that the production of this bike has been stopped. It is shocking.... I hope that suzuki will learn from this, and make a new fancy bike out of thin Tin material or recycled plastics, beautifully designed and stickered with some famous actor and actress, a big head lamp with low handle bars. A lot of aggressive and repeated advertisement, stating it to give a mileage of 200Km/Litre.
I’m sure they will sell one crore bikes in this foolish market. Who bothers about quality or reliability?....Suzuki should learn to put the consciousness to the dust bin, and make a bike which will have nothing but fancy looks and will run only 20000 kms and then to find a place in the same dust bin. No point in trying to win with only genuineness, quality with zero advertisements.
After all, this is not Japan.
