        This is a good bike and I had a very good experience with it. Now I want to buy a Honda SP 125 for a new experience and a new journey with this bike.

        Gaadi ka mileage thoda acha hai aur dekhne mein bhi ye pasand aayi. Agar gaadi gir bhi jaaye to tootti nahi kyunki iske parts acche aur high quality ke hain. Aam taur par gir jaane par bhi ise zyada theek karane ki zarurat nahi padti kyunki iske parts plastic ke nahi, balki lohe ke hain. Gaadi ka look bhi humein bahut acha laga. Isliye hum Pulsar lena pasand karte hain.
