    Pros & Cons

    Pros
    • The faired design looks nice and make nit a head-turner vehicle.
    • The 210cc engine is one of the most powerful options in the segment.
    • Comfortable riding posture- slightly upright and less committed.
    • USD front forks have made suspension better.
    • Smooth gear transitions make city and highway rides easy and comfortable.
    • Powerful Engine: 250cc liquid-cooled motor with 29.5bhp and 25Nm ensures strong performance.
    • Sporty Design: Aggressive streetfighter styling with sharp bodywork and LED lighting.
    • Feature-Packed: TFT display, Bluetooth connectivity, riding modes, traction control.
    • Performance-Oriented Handling: Trellis frame, USD forks, and preload-adjustable monoshock.
    • Slipper Clutch: Reduces wheel lock-up during aggressive downshifts.
    • Dual-Channel ABS: Offers better braking control with switchable rear ABS.
    Cons
    • You don’t feel the engine’s punch until 6,000 rpm.
    • Build quality is not that good.
    • Vibrations evident on higher speeds- when you go above 5,000 rpm
    • 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.

        Looks promising with its aggressive styling and impressive specs. Sharp and angular, with a prominent nose that gives the bike a menacing look. Headlight is a LED unit that is both bright and stylish, and it is flanked by two sharp and angular mirrors.

        It offers a comfortable ride and nimble handling, making it well-suited for touring. Well-positioned handlebar and footpegs, ensuring a relaxed riding posture. Switchgear is tactile and responsive, further enhancing the overall comfort and convenience of riding. Wind protection offered by the bike is decent, helps in reducing wind blast at higher speeds, resulting in a more comfortable riding experience on highways.
