• Pros & Cons

  Pros, Cons

  Pros	Thin tank feels very aerodynamic and comfortable fantastic and they are very very powerful. I will go as far as to say that the front and rear brakes are the best non ABS on any Indian bike. Timeless cafe racer styling with excellent road presence Aggressive riding posture makes ride feel sporty	Peppy engine delivers engaging performance for young riders. Lightweight chassis improves track agility significantly. Sharp handling enhances cornering confidence. Responsive suspension absorbs track bumps effectively. Compact design suits smaller riders comfortably.
  Cons	Quality is very low. The bike gets very vibey after an year The engine is quite unreliable.	High maintenance increases ownership demands. No road legality limits versatility. Firm ride reduces comfort during long sessions.
