        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.

        Rider seats have springs which acts as extra shock absorbers and thus provide more comfort. It offers a comfortable ride and nimble handling, making it well-suited for touring. Well-positioned handlebar and footpegs, ensuring a relaxed riding posture. Additionally, the suspension system is designed to absorb bumps and provide a smoother ride.

        Comfortable riding experience for both short and long distances. Its ergonomics are well-designed, with a slightly aggressive riding position that allows for better control and maneuverability.

        With a compact and muscular build. Its minimalist appearance gives it a futuristic look. LED headlight that provides excellent illumination and enhances visibility, especially during night rides. Split seats add its visual appeal.
