The braking system is equipped with dual-channel ABS, featuring a 320 mm front disc and a 230 mm rear disc, providing confidence-inspiring stopping power. Riders will also appreciate the modern tech features, such as the electric start and a stylish LED headlamp that enhances visibility and safety during night rides.

Pros

  • Powerful Engine Performance: The 373.30 cc engine delivers strong acceleration and impressive torque, making it suitable for both city rides and highway cruising.
  • Advanced Suspension System: The combination of telescopic front forks and an adjustable mono shock rear provides excellent handling and ride comfort, adapting to various road conditions.
  • Modern Safety Features: The dual-channel ABS ensures effective braking performance, bolstering rider confidence, especially in emergency situations.

Cons

  • Weight Consideration: At 184 kg (405.7 pounds), some riders may find it slightly heavy, especially for beginners or those who prefer lighter motorcycles.
