      This is the best machine in its CC and price range. The look of this bike is absolutely fabulous—it even resembles a mini Harley Davidson. I am so proud to own it.

      A good sports bike with a very strong Alpha 2 engine. Offers full comfort and performs best in rough areas. Strong look, attractive color, and heavy-duty build. I love it.
