      Being a 500cc bike it's a good choice, and because it's a liquid cool twin engine. The heating in city rides is ok, bearable in highway till 200kmph the bike handles well. overall a good bike with a sweet sound. sound is excellent with stock exhaust. dual channel switchable ABS is great as well. Great city and good for long ride. I like the bike.
