• Kms covered so far on my bike: 2,800 Kms


• Power - Excellent


• Pickup - Excellent


• Speed - Rocking speed..!! I crossed 125 Km/hr once..!!


• Gear Box/ Clutch- No Problems at all (I had a Pulsar 150 earlier, compared to my earlier 150 this bike has no problems at all with the clutch and gearbox). Finding the neutral is easy.


• Looks - Very Attractive I'd say. I feel people admire my bike more than any Karizma on road..!!


• Suspension - Very good. I have ridden my bike on all kind of roads including Village roads.


• Brakes - Disc brakes both for front & rear both are quite effective.


• Tyres are tubeless and offer ample amount of grip
  

Problems faced so far:-

• Some problem like Petrol/Fuel indicator. It is not accurate.


• The Rear brakes used to make squealing sound on braking.


• There is also a Cold Starting problem which I have faced.. I have to start the bike and keep idle for 10-15 sec then change the gear and give some race, no problem after that.

But no tension... BAJAJ people are solving those problem and immeditaly replacing the deffective part, the rear brake have already been replaced. Now working fine.

I am also very happy with the aftersales service and the attention that I am getting.. they are very attentive and I am being treated like a King..!!

• On Road Price for this bike I paid was Rs.83,450/- in pune


• Fuel Efficiency/Average: 27-33 km/l
  
  [Technique used to calculate Fuel Efficiency:

• Fill the petrol tank completly

  Ride the bike for around say 200 km

  After 200 km, fill tank completely again,

  Then cheacked the mileage and the I get is between 27-33
  Km/l]
  
  
  

Ovearll an excellent bike. I think that guys above 5.5 ft can easily find this bike comfortable to ride. But you would probably need a tall Girl Friend or Wife at the bcak seat as the rear seat is a bit tall.
