What's Bad
Being a standard motorbike, the company didn’t blessed it with some essential features like disc brakes and high performance objects. It would be tough to take this bike out on a long route.
Power to mileage

Handling and riding
The low weight of this bike makes it easy to handle, but riding dynamics are not so good and won’t make out enthusiastic feel. Frequent stops and pickups in traffic are not a hurdle for this bike.
Safety
Safety issues in this bike are minimum, as the cost and purpose of this bike don’t make it capable enough to have such things. Basic safety features of this bike include telescopic / spring suspension, drum brakes, etc.
Maintenance issues
This is something which this motorbike doesn’t require. It rides on least maintenance and without effecting the mileage much.

This bike makes a lot of sense while seeking for a mileage bike which won’t affect mileage. It is meant for those riders, who keep their pace under the economy range.
