      The bike has superb road presence and is a head turner. When loaded and crusing on highway at 60 to 80 kmph speed, it gives a good road grip and accelerates smoothly. Being low on ground clearance the suspension is obviously bit rigid which gives a bit of bumpy ride when not loaded. Recommended for long distance cruising on highways and not for off loading. Headlights needs refurbishment for night riders.

      Great machine such a cool and powerful bike from my perspective. I would recommend this bike, though not for off-roading. Still, you can take it anywhere if you're confident enough.
