        The bike is very good, and the ride is excellent. It’s an awesome bike, probably the best I’ve known in recent years. I’ve enjoyed riding it a lot.

        The car runs very smoothly, that's why I like it. If I buy a new one, I will definitely choose a Honda car.

        Smooth engine, great mileage (55–65 kmpl), and very comfortable for daily use. Perfect commuter bike with a stylish, sporty look. Runs smoothly, though the suspension feels a bit stiff and there are minor vibrations at high speeds.
