            Long travel in R15
            Pros: Good mileage. Worth for money if you prefer to buy a good used bike. Yamaha service is good. Pillion ride can use the seat upto 50kms. More than this, its own risk. Avg speed recommend is 80/90 to 110kmph Mileage: 40-47kmpl Cons: Avoid long ride without break points. This may leads to disc slip in future. Low quality plastics were found in bike.
