      It looks much sexier in the new colours than the outgoing model, on the other hand, a couple of changes with the accessories, shrouds, indicators or even the mirrors would have been better. Aesthetically pleasing visuals as the overall look is sleek and is also available in attractive color and designed well. It stand out from its stablemates with a more minimalist and streamlined appearance.

      Easy maneuverability is ensured by the handlebars' comfortable height and width. The footpegs' moderate rearward tilt allows for a comfortable yet sporty riding position. For short to medium rides, the seat provides sufficient support and is nicely cushioned.
