What could have been better
What could have been better
No Adjustable Levers: Lacks adjustable brake and clutch levers for better ergonomics.
Pillion may feel uncomfortable: Due to a smaller pillion seat, pillion may find it discomforting to sit for longer rides.
Build quality: The bike uses hard plastic in some areas, but this is okay when we look at the price point.
Low visibility of the TFT screen: The TFT screen offers good visibility in the shade but struggles under direct sunlight.
Stiff Competition: Faces tough rivals like KTM 250 Duke and Bajaj Pulsar N250, but an aggressive price point is the key of success for the brand.
