Hello, friends. Now I'm not a biker or
speed freak like most of my colleagues. All I look for in a motorcycle
is comfort and efficiency, which the Honda CBF Stunner offers in
plenty. Since the day it has been with me, the bike has been regularly
used for my daily commute to office and weekend trips to theatres
and restaurants. The Stunner offers a very high level of comfort
and astride it I always get the feeling that I'm in full control
of the bike. Never once has the bike scared me or let me down and
even with some spirited riding on the way back home after late-night
shifts, she returns an efficiency of 60.72kmpl. Though I do not
know much about bikes, one thing I really like on the Stunner are
its superior brakes that are sharp and precise.
Not to forget the styling of the bike,
which immediately caught my fancy the first time I saw this Honda.
It's a great looking motorcycle and though the guys at office keep
speaking about how this bike needs another cylinder, I'm quite happy
with what the Stunner has to offer me. There is just one thing that
I would like to change on the Stunner and that is the switchgear.
The starter motor switch gets stuck each time I thumb it and that's
pretty irritating, especially after a long day at work. Also the
TVS tyres are not so grippy and they do not inspire enough confidence,
especially during wet road conditions. That's about it. Lately,
I have been planning to take the Stunner for a ride to the outskirts
of the city and beyond. The Diwali vacation seems like the best
time to hit the open highway and head out to a nearby hill-station
for the much-needed break.
