I have this bike for the past 11 years and still it is in show room condition in spite of the high speeds that I do in the beach road and the full acceleration that I give while starting in signals. Mileage is in the range of 35 kmpl but that is ok. I have a very good mechanic to whom I give it once in six months and he just cleans the air filter, changes gear box oil if needed and cleans the brakes, applies grease to brake and clutch levers and nothing more. He just returns the vehicle.
The bike is extremely powerful and sometimes in street races with other bikes, this bikes comes out well. Till this day it is a marvel and the only match for TVS Suzuki 100 R and 100 is the Yamaha RX 100 and nothing else.
