Hornet 2.0
Nice bike compared to previous version. very impressed with their professionalism and attention to detail. The staff were friendly and thoroughly explained the necessary repairs, providing clear pricing before any work was done. My bike is running smoothly now, and I especially appreciated the thorough cleaning they gave it. Overall, a great experience and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable bike service in the city.

Safety riding
It seems to me a very good commuter which doubles down as a tourer. It has a slight long stroke nature which tremendously helps its cause. You will feel the torque nature of the motor in high gears. Mileage would be around 40. The only gripe would be the body panel quality. Also best for driving safely.

Best bike in budget range
The Xtreme 125R ABS is the best bike in the budget range. I’ve been using it for 2 months, and my experience has been fantastic. It delivers great performance, impressive durability, and comfort, all at an affordable price. With its stylish design and smooth handling, it’s perfect for those seeking a reliable and budget-friendly bike.

Killer in the segment 🔥
I was looking for best in segment firstly my mind was towords Raider 125 but when this bike came it give me all I want in my bike then I booked at my nearest showroom very smooth experience also worthy of buying it. It gives good performance and smooth riding feels very comfortable for long ride also.. gear shift is also very smooth.in terms of milage I can say it kill in the segment. With this price range there no bike in this segment that offers alot. Like Abs..but the bike is not good for family purpose.
