        I bought it from the showroom near my house. There was a slight delay in delivery due to limited availability—it took about a month. The vehicle rides very smoothly and is comfortable. It gives around 40 km/l mileage, and after the first service, it became even smoother and more comfortable.

        The best adventure bike in the low-end price segment, under ₹2.5 lakhs, featuring a TFT screen and multiple features like turn-by-turn navigation.
