        Breaking mechanism is excellently supported by dual channel ABS. It has comfortable riding position not too aggressive. Ergonomics are ever so slightly more aggressive, making it very comfortable yet sporty for pretty much all types of situations.

        Eye catching design, it looks pretty much. Cowl styling along with the new windshield offers great wind protection. Beautiful with the LED headlight located in the middle. It is far perfectly designed to suit each day and modern lifestyle.

        Very comfortable even for large adults. Seat height is low, making it very accessible for shorter riders. Whether riding at slow speeds in the city or cruising on the highway, it manages all types of riding conditions.

        Designed to provide maximum comfort to the rider and pillion. It features a comfortable seat with ample cushioning and a relaxed riding position that reduces fatigue during long rides. Handlebars are also positioned at a comfortable height, allowing riders to maintain a straight back posture while cruising on the highway.
