      Great comfort but maintenance and mileage is terrible. I'm using it since 2022. I've changed it's chain and sprocket, clutch, lots of clutch cables, tires battery etc. I was getting 55 kmpl mileage but it has been reduced to 45 -47 kmpl. Really worried about it's performance and low mileage.

      FZ is a great bike for city rides. It has a powerful engine, smooth suspension, and comfortable seat. The mileage is decent, and the maintenance is easy. The bike looks stylish and has a digital display. I enjoy riding it every day and I recommend it to anyone who loves bikes.
