      Engine is the best, mileage and pickup are excellent, overall the best model. It is a top choice among bikers, and my favorite bike color is white. A special interview was conducted for this.

      Nice bike for its range with good performance in its segment. I like it, but the mileage is low. I think the company could improve this aspect in the E20 model.
