        Good handling on corners and bends, better mileage, and a nice naked look from the side. Good head and beam lights, nice sound while riding, and easy to balance.

        It features a flat, narrow fuel tank, a round headlight, and a sculpted seat that give it a distinctive appearance. The bike?s frame is made of steel, which contributes to its robustness and durability.
