The Hero Honda CBZ X-Treme Kick Start is a solid choice for those seeking a blend of comfort, smoothness, and reliable power delivery. This 150cc bike stands out with its unicorn-derived retuned motor, which offers 14.4 PS of power and 12.8 Nm of torque, making it a joy to ride both in city traffic and on highways. The bikes handling is agile, especially at high speeds, and the MRF tyres provide excellent grip.
