    Overall It's good for long rides with the following pros and cons Pros:Good mileage (60-80 KMPH speed)Handling and road grip and balance is excellentCornering stability is goodTrusted and well refined engineSuspension is good to tackle rough roads.Cons:Feels somewhat underpowered on highways (149 CC engine)Since engine is air cooled so it's advisable to cruise under 80 KMPH speedMissing a lot 6th gear on highway cruising.Need to take a break after every 100 to 120 km to get engine cooled down (since it's a air cooled engine and getting heated )

    It's great for long ride but for pillon it can be little bit rough and discomfort where the pillion will feel numb in his back after 2 to 3 hours . There are few issues like chain loosening from the set and the small sprocket will fall , coil problem in the engine you need to check on this after this battery check whether you have the light and horns are operating correctly from time to time .

    I had a ride of 540 km in a single day with only 2 breaks and with 116-120 cruising speed in NH for about 2 hours continuously, don't worry it's a beast. You can do anything with it. And had got it serviced 8 months ago before the ride
