      This is a superb bike, especially ideal for people in the 35 to 70 age group. It offers strong performance, good weight, and doesn’t focus too much on speed which makes it safe and reliable. A great choice in India. Go for it.

      I often travel to Shahpur, Nashik, Mumbai by road from Pune & enjoy the long run always. It is much less expensive in all ways & easy to get out of traffic jams.
