            Maintenance
            Maintenance cost is too high every 2.5k km & for every maintenance you have to pay 3000 around. Every this is normal. Don't look for comfort seat is too tight you can not ride more then 20 km if ABS Little risky sometimes ABS works when i don't need which cause me to hit somebody. Mileage little low compare to pulsar 150 almost same CC But mileage is way differ.
