Why it wins

Pillion 8/10, one of the best scores among commuters, and comfort 8/10. A daily ride with a passenger is the job it is built for.
11.5 PS and 10.5 Nm, a front disc with CBS, and tubeless tyres: enough pull for two up on a flyover, and braking that suits the extra weight.
Against the Honda SP125: the same on-road price, pillion 8/10 vs 7/10, comfort 8/10 vs 7/10 and 11.5 vs 10.87 PS.

Who it suits

In our quiz, with the budget set at its own on-road price, it comes first for: mixed riding from Dhaka, a first bike, a pillion every day, with performance as the priority.
Couples and small families who ride two up every day and want a bit more power than a 100 cc commuter.

Trade-offs

The SP125 is the safer long-term bet: reliability 9/10 vs 7/10, resale 8/10 vs 7/10, and 55-62 km/l vs 50-58.
Mechanic familiarity 6/10 and parts 7/10: fine near a Hero dealer, harder in small towns. A service costs about ৳1,100.
