            Dream ....
            A bike with a high-quality engine, good suspension, and a usable pillion seat. One reviewer says the plastics are better quality than many other motorcycles.A good entry-level sportbike with a sporty design, good handling, and strong performance. However, it may not be comfortable for long rides, and it lacks advanced features like riding modes and traction control.
