Today I booked for Gladiator YYJ model with engine cowl as seen in SS model the total cost is 51, 870+1, 000(for Race cowl)+250(fitting charges). I will be getting my bike on 3rd sep.
I got test ride on both YYJ model and SS
First YYJ
The black Graffiti model is better than SS in terms of look when fitted with race cowl . But the engine sound is slightly different( although same engine).
The pick up is excellent
it does not contain tachometer
but engine switch off is a nice option.
great bike for the price.
when I first started the bike I got the feel of riding a 150CC bike. throughout my test ride I was attracted by its stunning performance.
Those who want to buy a 125CC bike should opt for this when mileage is not a concern.
the only problem of this bike is it gives only 50Kmpl(said by the service men in showroom) .
I have done a research of about 4 months and finely ended in this bike. If you want a bike with good comfort and reliability go for this bike.
If you like vibrations and trust in honda then go for shine
if you want to buy TVS XL type of bike with capacity of 125CC then go for XCD
if you want a bike with bad build quality then go for Discover DTSi
CBF stunner newly lanched by honda has a poor mileage(45Kmpl). so dont go for it(since it is a new bike cannot talk further).
Gladiator can easily beat all of these bikes
I cannot tell more since I have not completed my first service. I will write more after completing 500km
Please tell me the speed to be run for first for 2000km to get the engine stabilized. *
