Hey Guys this is my First Review on this Site. Hope you find it useful.
First things First..
This is an excellent Bike. A best bet for anybody who wants to go for 150 cc bike.
If you want to purchase this bike, I would suggest you take a long ride on one apache from one of your friends and see if you can handle it well.
This is my first ever BIKE, and I am going to tell some cons of the bike.
- The Gearshifting is a nuisance !!! The gear shift sticks some where and makes some clicking noises during shifting. It is not at all pleasant. [That’s why check if you get to try it for a longer drive]
It some times does a false neutral between 1st and 2nd gear.
Once you are in the right gear the machine does it job. and it does it well.
I found that you have to change the gears too quickly to keep the pace. But that should be normal I guess. It gives excellent mileage.. 56 kmpl @ 50-60 KMPH. The headlamp is ’The Sun’ for you in the night.
Suspension is not as good as I would have expected on a 150 CC beast.[especially on these roads] The Unicorn wins all hands down in that point. If you need a very very comfortable Bike, go get the Unicorn. The mono suspension works wonders on that one...
If you can live with these two small problems...I think this is the bike for you.
Well I guess the problem of gearshifting should go away when we two get to know each other well.
Happy Riding to all of you.
