How it rides

Light and agile with quick steering that makes it one of the best bikes for Dhaka gap-filling. Sporty but not tiring.

Quirks owners talk about

Firm rear suspension and a small, hard pillion seat; air-cooled engine heats up in long jams; vibrations creep in above 90 km/h; rear tyre is narrow.

Brakes: Front disc is sharp; the base refresh lacks ABS, so pick the ABS variant if budget allows.
