Hero Mavrick 440
  • Torquey and refined engine, Handling is engaging, Very light clutch action, Even base variant gets Bluetooth connectivity & turn-by-turn navigation, Very competitively priced, Very comfortable for even two-up riding
Hero Mavrick 440
  • Finish levels can still improve, Neo-retro design isn’t unique and won’t grab much attention, Console’s space could’ve been utilized better
