    Bajaj NS 400 : A Power-Packed Performer 

    The Bajaj NS 400 has been my daily companion for the past six months and it is quite the powerhouse. The bike's 400cc triple spark, 4 valve engine delivers a robust 44 horsepower and 35 Nm of torque, which means acceleration is brisk and there’s plenty of power on tap for overtaking and high speed cruising.Handling is another high point for the NS 400, thanks to its lightweight frame and responsive suspension setup. The bike feels agile and easy to maneuver, whether on busy city roads or open highways.

    Will be a high performer bike 

    There is no need to introduction of Bajaj NS which is a brillant bike in all the engine capacity and obivously 399 cc engine will hit in the market because the 200 cc engine also very great and high performer. It will come as a affordable 400 cc bike that will give us a very nice design and style and will come with full digital console and all LED lights and will come with the dual channel ABS. I feel it will be a high performer bike and the expected price is around 2 lakh.

    Excellent mileage 

    This is the most powerful bike.It delivers amazing performance, Has good looks, And provides excellent mileage.It was a dream from the age of 15 to own a yamaha machine.At my 22 birthday, My father took me to his small activa and he told me we are going to buy your birthday gift.I was confused why he is taking me to buy it he could have brought it prior.At last, The scooter stopped in front of a huge board and my heart started beating, My excitement and confusion started hitting me again.And i got hands-on with that beautiful machine it was r15 v3.The riding experience is awesome.We are actually sitting inside a cockpit that kind of comfort we will get in v3.Everybody knows that in terms of looks and performance and also mileage there is no other bike in its segment is there to compete with v3.Maintenance is like a normal bike.As compared to other bikes in the segment its really cheap.Pros - looks, Mileage, Performance, Reliability, Gears are crisp.Cons- i haven't felt any but many people told me that there was the issue of back pain due to the postureother than that i haven't felt any.

    Driving is very impressive 

    Yamaha R15S is a very aggressive and attractive looking bike that gives amazing road presence and the feel to drive this bike is very impressive. The power in this bike is incredible and the fuel tank of this bike is very unique and the suspension is on the softer side and it comes with the telescopic suspension. The handling is very good and is a superb bike to drive and the braking is good but the posture is on the aggressive side that gives uncomfort for the long rides.
