Q. Sir I want to purchase New bike. I want more power, pickup, mileage and low maintenance. which bike will you suggest me?
  • Go for start city plus electric model 2020 if you haven't bought it yet. Good type(dura grip) grip even in rainy season. Led head light available 2020 model. Pick up is good in this price segment and worst mileage it can give is 60kmpl(I prefer riding above 70km/hr, at time even even touch 98kmph ie the top speed), best it can give upto 74kmpl also if you ride around 50km/hr, service change is mechanic change 250-450 + oil change 250-350. In a year or 2 may change break pad.This is with 3years of regular use experience of 60km/day or even more. I give 3-4service a year as my running is too much & with it reaching office it a hard job.Or can go for unicorn, but mileage will fall by 10directly and first time buying cost will increase by 10k. Yet is all good in that as well. Some plus is little more smooth above 80kmph,and less vibration.plus disk break is available.
  • What type of bike ??commuter or sports ?? In a balanced manner you can buy shine sp, hero glamour bs6 , honda unicorn 160, Yamaha fz v3, pulsar bs6 150 ,pulsar ns 160 there are many options , go take a test ride of bikes according to your budget and then decide urself .others can suggest but you have to take the decession . in 100 cc bikes , splendor plus, starcity plus , platina 110 h gear, radeon ,star sport , hero i smart ,bajaj ct 100 are limited options . check carefully,then decide.
  • The combination that you mentioned here i.e.power, pick up millage and low maintenance did not match , therefore your question not stand here. If you want more power and pick up than forgot about millage and low maintenance.

    Embodies the Spirit of Sustainable City Travel. 

    The Okinawa Ridge invites you to explore an undiscovered home. This electric motor scooter may give a veritably ultrapractical and effective boost for beginners to the megacity. Its satiny and truly ultrapractical project draws concentration. Because to the thorough webbing processes, you may travel with confidence. It has a remarkable range and is aimed for long peregrinations through megacities. The main argument I like this model is its unanticipated capacity to give, which makes it an excellent volition for individualities appearing for an electric scooter that matches their brazen-facedattitude.The electric motor on the two- wheeler is in fantastic shape and has an emotional range. It also seems unanticipated.

    Decent electric bike for the price 

    I have been riding hero electric optima cx with dual battery in hyderabad since july, 2022 and here is my feedback: good: - two batteries, So you always have a backup - both batteries removable, So you can remove each battery separately and charge at home or anywhere.- two chargers provided that work for both batteries, So you can keep one at home and one in bike for emergencies.- low pricebad: - very low ground clearance, Bottom hits most of the speed breakers.- very slow on slopes.- slow on plain roads too with an adult pillion rider.- top speed of 45 kmph, Feels less on empty roads sometimes.- pathetic customer service and delivery experience.- not high quality materials used, Does not feel robust overall.

    Riding in Style: TVS Star City Plus 

    The TVS Star City Plus not only catches the eye with its style, but also offers a comfortable and smooth 110cc engine to make your ride equally comfortable on the city and highway rides. Its affordable design, good seat comfort, and reliable performance makes it a well-suited vehicle for daily commutes but with regret it misses the latest barometers which show you gear indicators. Although its indicated mileage remain to be impressive, it can be confusing to experience an actual road mileage that may be far from the claimed figures. Nevertheless, even during city journeys my star ship keeps being my reliable Buddy.
