RS 457 the OG
RS 457 the OG
So, I’ve had the RS 457 for a while now, and here’s the scoop:
1. Experience
Let me start by saying, this bike feels alive. It’s like riding pure adrenaline! Whether you’re cutting through city traffic or cruising on the highway, it’s got that punch that makes you want to keep going. The throttle response is sharp, and you can really feel the bike’s power kicking in, especially on those open roads. But it’s not without its quirks. The suspension can be a bit stiff, so you’ll feel the bumps on uneven roads. That said, if you're into sporty rides, this one definitely delivers.
2. Mileage
Now, let's talk about mileage. It’s pretty average. Don’t expect this to be your fuel-efficient, everyday commuter. On a good day, you’ll get somewhere around the mid-range in terms of kilometers per liter, but once you start pushing it hard (and trust me, you will), the fuel gauge dips faster than you’d like. It’s not terrible, but if you’re someone who’s clocking long distances, it’s worth keeping in mind.
3. Maintenance Cost
Here’s where it can sting a little. Maintenance isn’t cheap. Sure, it’s not as pricey as some of the more high-end sports bikes, but you do feel the pinch. Regular servicing and parts (especially if you’re pushing the bike to its limits) will add up over time. It’s the kind of bike where you’ll want to take care of it properly, so budgeting for upkeep is important.
4. Safety
One thing I’ll give the RS 457 full marks for is safety. The brakes are absolutely spot-on! Whether you're in traffic or braking hard on the highway, the ABS kicks in just when you need it. I never felt unsure of the bike’s stopping power, which gives you a lot of confidence on the road. Add to that the decent traction control, and you've got a ride that makes you feel secure, even when you're pushing it hard.
