It was 2 months ago that I decided to but this a bike and I started to search the internet for a suitable bike.. and then I had decided for the platina but later when I went to the showroom my sister showed me the xcd and I asked about it and I was sold to it . I decided in a min to but that bike. I could no go for a test drive because I didnt knew how to ride a gear bike. Then I got this bike on october 2008 and I have been using this thereafter..
It took me 2-3 days to get correct control of the gear, clutch and throttle..but there was no problem in handling even in wet conditions on terrible mud roads. Now I can drive this bike easily without making any harsh sound of the engine.. the ride control button in it helps a lot. It is giving a mileage of somewhere around 50-55 kms , as I drive in the city in a heavy traffic area.. have never tested it in the highway..well I dont have the experience of bike much..but when it comes to this one.
I am completely satisfied with the money I invested on this one. The one problem I felt in this was that the fuel quantity the bike shows varies suddenly and you cannot accurately judje the fuel present in the vehicle.. overall a good bike..
