To put in simple words it’s a fast locomotive with disc brakes. That’s the underlying philosophy of the bike design.
Try lifting the wheel after a puncture. It’s a back breaker.
I own a TB500 now for 5 months purely for highway rides(got 3 other bikes too) . It’s frustrating to ride this in city.
Love it. Planted on ground at 100kmph with crosswinds blowing hard giving confidence.
Peppier than the 350cc variety and may be worth the extra price.
Cons:
Stupid company. When charging 40, 000 extra there is no distinction between 500 with 350. Even the 500 badge is difficult to read.
Stupid company / dealers. Even after spending 2lakhs on their flagship costly product the company treats customers like dirt. It’s only now they started customer orientation for most its too late because they were told what not to do after 1 year of bike purchase.
