A good bike for tall people!!

So far, I haven’t calculated the mileage, so arbitrarily I selected 3 boxes in Fuel consumption rating. Will let you all know ASAP.


Hope the photos which I uploaded is viewable. The bike overall is extremely superb and I liked it a lot. Its been 3 weeks since I owned this bike. So far, the bike is performing well and I didn’t face any problems while riding. Though, I hear minute vibrating sound like this: "Kata....Kata...Kata....Kata...." while riding in calm and silent roads. I tried to investigate but couldn’t. I think it is from the front mud guard. But no other problems. I would gladly recommend this bike to anyone who is willing to purchase a 150 cm^3 bike.


Yet, I faced few problems with this bike. First one is, it is a bit heavy for me as I’m 6.4 feet tall but only 60 kg in weight (slim). So I find it difficult to put the centre stand. But manage to do it, sometimes I take the help of someone. Second thing is the helmet hanger. I had to struggle a lot to hang my helmet there, as the hanger is too much inside. They could have designed this a bit front. Also, this built in helmet hanger is not so safe. You’ll have to lock it by hanging the strap of your helmet in the V shaped hook. Anyone can steal your helmet by cutting the strap and then they can fit new strap!!


So, better buy a good quality helmet lock and attach it at the rear grips for pillion rider. Third thing is the seat opening technique. I’ll have to unlock the seat first, pull the knob downward and have to put great effort to open the seat, though anyone may want to open it very occasionally. But still, It is a bit tedious process to open the seat.


But overall performance and looks, design is great! especially the protective design of seat front which prevents from hurting our testicles (if you are male) when you brake suddenly. Unlike in pulsar 150 DTSi, this design is very safe for male riders. You can see the images of CBZ Xtreme and Pulsar bikes so that you’ll get a clear view of this. When I say that seat protects your testicles, it doesn’t mean that you can do all sorts of nasty heroism!!! Please use your commonsense don’t try any kind of "Veer..Shoor...Saahas" activities with any bike.


Will update in this section very frequently.
