• Pros & Cons

  Pros, Cons

  Pros	The faired design looks nice and makes it 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.	Sporty design inspired by larger KTM RC models Strong performance from 164cc liquid-cooled engine Lightweight and agile handling for city and twisty roads Practical features like connectivity, slipper clutch and 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	Aggressive ergonomics reduce comfort for long rides Missing advanced rider aids seen in higher segments Not as refined as some Japanese rivals Pricng on the higher side for a 160cc bike
