        Good performance bike lightweight, smooth, with excellent power and mileage. Low maintenance, buttery smooth gear shifts, nice clutch feel, and great power delivery. Honda’s engine is incredibly smooth, like butter.

        As a beginner, this is one of the best bikes that you could start on. The bike is super easy and comfortable to maneuver in the city. At the same, it gives you confidence on the highways.

        I just love this bike, it is light weight and easy to handle. Just dissapointed with the thinly padded seat and pricey accessories. Otherwise I'm totally satisfied and is completely worth to buy!
