Good perfomer
Overall good performance, mileage is good around 40-45 in city ,requires proper maintenance. Equipped with ABS provides safety and confidence. The tyres need to be replaced around 25000-30000 km . Battery can last long 4 or even 5 years . Should go to service at proper intervals , which ensures long life .

TRUE LEGEND
This is true legend of its all other segment bike , It gives great torque in 2, 3 gears,and also it's long riding experience. Due to its latest dual channel abs braking , we feels really confident on higher speeds above 100 km/hrs The only suggestion to bajaj is , pleas give 6th gear And gear postioning indicator in digital speedometer.

This bike is overall better
This bike is overall better than raider 125 because in raider bike I heard that if we continuously sits 3 people with us the back seat is break. Extreme is good in everything but it's seat is different from normal from other but that is good for gf bf but not for a family man that's why... I recently have a ride of extreme 125r from demo ride even my friend also ride that bike he say the torque of bike is good
