Adding some soft luggage made my Unicorn GP a perfect weekend tourer. How you set it up is all it's about.

Sachin · Answer

The Unicorn GP is a jack of all trades, not the most comfortable or the fastest, but it does everything well enough to be enjoyable for long rides.

Pallavi · Answer

The seat is a bit too soft for really long rides, I find. It’s great for short city commuting, but by the time I get to a 300+ km trip, I start to feel it.

Pallavi · Answer

The Unicorn GP is a lot fuel efficient and good for long rides. It means more time enjoying the journey with fewer fuel stops.

Pallavi · Answer

Heads up, it's a comfortable ride, but on highways the lack of wind protection can be an issue. For longer trips I had to invest in a small windscreen.

Sana · Answer

I changed from a sporty 150cc to the Unicorn GP for touring and have never regretted it. With a smooth engine, you don’t suffer so much over long distances.

Sanjay · Answer

Long rides are where the Unicorn GP shines, as it’s legendary reliable. This means you won’t have to worry about breakdowns in the middle of nowhere.

Abhishek · Answer

Long ride is decent, but fo more highway performance, I’d take a Pulsar 150 like any day. The Unicorn is a bit underpowered at higher speeds.

Rahul · Answer

I can say that I have done a 500 km trip on my Unicorn GP, which is surprisingly comfortable. This really helps on long rides with its upright seating position.
