            All About Mileage
            There are too much controversy on the mileage of n160 .I am a owner of that bike it's give me 38 - 40 kmpl .. milaga which is not decent cause showroom claim that the coustomer have 50+ mileage on that bike so that's very disappointing. And on the the highway the mileage goes down below to the 30 approx.

            Good for City Riding. Mileage is decent, pillion seat is not that much comfortable, initial pickup is slightly low, sensors are good, Bluetooth connectivity with mobile is only active if the app is running, Bike Service is not much good, not suitable for those who want to speed, both front and rear tyres are good
