My shine is six months old now. It makes high noice and the pick up is low. I completed the three services but still it is there. The service center they are telling that the bike is alright. If you the art of living with the ambiguity, go for this inconsistent bike. I would have gone for Passion plus instead of this idiot bike. I never expected this kind of a bike from Honda. My previous SS model I used for more than 8 years. Ergo tech is nothing but Errored technology from Honda.
Pros:
1.Break control with disk (Without disk you may end up with mess).
2.Mileage - Never gone down below 57Km/l in suburbon
3.Style and look
4.Intial performance of engine
5.Good Head lamp
Cons:
1.Poor engine performance at later times. With in few months the engine sound changes a lot and making more noices.
2.Poor resale value. I took my bike to Hero Honda for exchange. They offered me 35K (my bike is 6 months old, 7000kms done, self start, alloy, disk brake and its original cost is 55K)
3.Irritating tappet sound.
4.You will loose peace of mind.
