            A Budget Superbike
            This is the first bike I bought ...but after that I realised why I bought it..very very worst customer care support and service centre are worst in my area.Apart from that Smooth experience with bike and it is more comfortable only one thing service costs are too high.if you maintain it good then it will best for the money.But it's a good superbike category falls under budget.

            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.
