I saw last week and I did a test drive for this bike, it is so good as per city condition, it gives good mileage, overall so good bike, I love hero and its durability. I want rear tyre wider and digital speedometer because I spend more than 74000 so I expect these that's all..otherwise so I agree to improve a lot thanks.
Best Features: Seating position, auto enginge off below 40 kmpl, engine etc. is so nice
Pros: Mileage, looks, all feature good
Cons: Price too high like 150cc, digital speedometer is missing and then rear tyre so slim
