      Super breaking, gear changing and high pick up with sudden slowing down experience. Full of comfort Long cruising experience is best. Hilly adventurous experience can be added to this all too.

      Good for long tours comfort is excellent for the rider but the pillion seat could have been made more comfortable . The wiring has been given beneath the pillion seat; it would’ve been better if it had been enclosed like the classic 350 so that we could modify it easily as a bobber
