Pros	Stylish look with sharp design Refined 125cc engine with good mid-range performance The fit and finish of the motorcycle is top-notch Comes with single-channel ABS The handling of the motorcycle is quite good The NVH level is well-maintained It offers a well claimed fuel-efficiency of 66 kmpl	World’s first CNG-powered commuter motorcycle Offers a combined range of 330 km, 200km in CNG and 130 km in petrol mode Affordable pricing with a starting price of Rs 95,000 (ex-showroom) Gets a dedicated CNG & Petrol switchover button, and can be switched between petrol and CNG on the go It offers the longest seat in the segment with 785 mm length Available in three variants and multiple dual-tone colour options Gone through 11 safety tests to ensure the safety of the CNG cylinder and overall motorcycle Bajaj’s widespread sales and service network
Cons	The styling is a bit too sharp for some consumers The rear seat is high which might create difficulty for ladies and old people Braking could have been better The suspension on the softer side Single-channel ABS is not standard	Design is subjective and may not appeal to everyone Long queues on CNG pumps will result in long wait while refilling the CNG tank The 2 kg CNG and 2-litre petrol capacity is a bit less The base variant misses on LED lighting and disc brake The speedometer console is small in size
