Using this from over a year now, the scooter is awesome for a daily commuter, the city traffic in bangalore demands a scooter with awesome pickup and good balance to cut though the narrow gaps.
Pros:
1) The pickup is awesome when the accelerator is given a little more, else it just moves slowly in its own pace.
2) The balance is awesome, have driven it on the dirt roads of bangalore, thanks to the BBMP for providing such facility in the city itself:)
3) Mileage is par with other vehicles of the same class, getting around 48 kmpl in city with harsh usage due to pathetic roads and traffic conditions
4) Cheaper to maintain than the honda counterparts
5) Seat is comfortably wide and high for a good view of the road.
6) Front hook is very useful to attach the office bag.
Cons:
1) Too much of vibrations, although the body is very light but still the amount of vibrations is not acceptable being a petrol vehicle, I have observed that putting the Shell V- Power petrol does reduce the vibrations and makes the engine more responsive
2) The brakes are very very weak, the time taken to complete to a halt from the speed of over 50 is high and cannot brake hard as the tyres tend to lock and slip.
3) Under seat storage is not good for more than anything except a middle sized helmet.
4) The headlights are weak and the horn isn't load enough.
In a nutshell a very good scooter for the price the company has offered in the market, there are better scooters in the market for an additional cost of 8-10 thousands.
