The bike boasts telescopic front forks and a rear suspension system designed to provide a smooth ride, absorbing bumps and imperfections in the road. The combination of a single disc front brake and a drum brake at the rear ensures dependable stopping power, instilling confidence in every ride. Additional amenities include an electric and kick starter for hassle-free ignition and a windscreen that adds an extra layer of protection against the elements.
