I wanted a no-nonsense, practical bike perfect for city commuting and my style of riding. I frequently travel short distances, especially within city limits and I dont go above 50-60 kmph. Since I was against spending more than 50-60k on a bike, I was looking for the right one and visited many showrooms. Also, I wanted a bike immediately and only Suzuki offered me delivery within 3 days and they delivered it on time, as promised.
Initially, I had an instinctive dislike for Suzuki 2-wheelers, but simply because I wanted a bike at very short notice, I settled for Suzuki Hayate. Also, another reason being that I was amazed by the bikes performance on the first test ride. I didnt expect this much from a budget-model bike.
It has been 2 years now.and my Hayate is as good as it was when I first rode it. No issues at all. Absolutely no problems till date. I am also getting a pretty decent mileage of close to 60 km/liter. The ride is smooth, the gear shift is smooth. At less than 60k, I personally feel that I cant expect anything more from a 110 cc bike.
