Long distance journeys were very uncomfortable

Buying the Bajaj V15 was a comparatively good experience, as it cost lesser than other 150cc bikes. The locking system was also good and stylish. However, the riding experience was quite bad, as even in 5th gear, it made a sound as if it was in 3rd gear. The backseat passenger was very uncomfortable while riding. If they don't hold on properly, they could easily fall off even at low speeds. The seating design was also very bad. The fuel indicator was not accurate either, showing full even when in reserve. This caused much confusion when it came to placing the fuel indicator. The performance was also not up to the mark, as the pick up was not great and after riding for more than 15 kms, the mileage dropped to 40 km/l. The service centres were also not good, as they didn't respond promptly and even during free service, they would charge a lot. After a free service, they would charge more than 3500Rs for normal service. The tyre was also of very poor quality, making it hard to ride. Long distance journeys were very uncomfortable and gave back pain. The main problem with the bike is that it has very low resale value. It is recommended that you do not purchase this bike.
