        With its bold and sporty appearance, the bike has a powerful stance and crisp lines. The bike has a modern and dynamic look thanks to its split seat arrangement, contoured fuel tank, and streamlined headlamp.

        Overall bike is good but design is very aggressive and according to mileage it is good. Disc should be essential for the ride. And the headlight looks impressive. But the pillion height is very high .

        it’s the best 125 cc bike in India. The mileage is around 60 km, and it looks like a sports bike. The smooth engine and the inclusion of ABS make it a great value for money.
