I bought this bike by 2006. For the past three years, I am using this bike. I cannot able to simply say this is a good one but, really reliable, awesome, comfortable, smooth, perfect bike. I cannot compare the other bikes by leading brand. Even though it is little bit costly, its worth of buying this bike dear readers! My service expenses for the whole 3 years is about 2000 and that too mostly for service and breakages of accessories (broken due to my carelessness ).
I am not at all properly (timely) giving the bike to the service stations but I don’t find any reasons for which it necessary to give it to the service other than Oil change and water service.
I am getting the mileage of 50 kilometers per liter and thats pretty acceptable when we look in to the pickup (can be compared with older Yamaha), Stability and smoothness. For Service, please avoid giving bike to Honda service stations. Find a known good smart mechanic for this; thats enough
