Pros: Comfort, road grip,suspension, build quality, looks, long rides, CBS braking, After 1st service gives a mileage af 40+ in city and 50kmpl plus on highway( if ridden between 70 to 90 kmph), overtaking is a charm on this. We can enjoy hill station riding even with a pillion on, as it has excellent power for a scooter.Con: only con I noticed is you have to use Choke once in the morning every day to self start. Final verdict: If safety and comfort are your priorities, if you travel a lot....This is tailor made for you.

It is fun to ride. Because of the weight and all metal construction, it is stable on the highway. Searing position is comfortable. Looks are iconic, and a tribute to Italian design.

It is very difficult to maintain and accessories are expensive.It won't give good mileage.It is not good for daily commute, Tours, Leisure rides, Occasional commute.
