      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.
