My priorities are good ride quality & suspension for comfortable journey for both rider and pillion(because of back pain), low maintenance cost and good mileage.Which one should I go for?
  • As per your requirements, we'd suggest you to go with the Honda Unicorn if you do not mind the old-school styling and lack of modern elements.
