I’ve been using this bike for 7 months. Have run 7000kms I think this is the best looking bike in this price range, it’s a very different motorcycle with a very aggressive design. It grabs alot of eye balls all the time you take it for a spin Through this 7 months I haven’t faced any issue at all with the bike. Because of its Cornering on this bikes gives me immense pleasure and confidence!
This bike corners way better than R15, Ninja, CBR etc and can only be compared with supersports 600cc class bikes, yes you heard it! The cons about this bikes starts with it stock tyres, MRF’s are simply isn’t good suited for this bike. I’m planning to replace it with Michelin. Lack of ABS have troubled me alot, as a beginner sport bike rifer I have locked my wheels alot of time.
The riding position will take atleast a month to getting used to, my wrists and shoulders were paining so bad. The situation make it worse when you have a pillion along with you. It is a great bike for what its made to do. But its not a practical bike, if u do alot of touring or daily commute then you need to choose Duke:)
