If you are looking for a vehicle in this segment(100 CC) then this will be a better choice than many. Please dont compare the bike with APACHE, PULSAR etc as the segment in itself is different. I bought the bike on 22-08-2011 and drove 4500 kms now.
Well you can get the idea how much experience I have with driving it now. So quickly:
1. Engine: well for 100 CC segment it is 97+ and can be a considered a powerful engine in the category.
2. Fuel Consumption: being on rough routes, driving kilometers together in traffic and not being a nice driver myself, I am getting 55-60 KMPL(Fuel Tank always gets filled with 500 rupee so the variation is less). The best I got was 63 KMPL, when I went for some longer and less traffic route.
In case you are having your office timings in less/no peak hours and can control your emotions for 45-50 KMPH; you can expect to have upto 70 KMPL easily.
3.Looks and Seating: Looks: as with other passion series, is made to make it sportive, I however found seating not that comfortable, but that can be because of my driving about 40 Kms average and upto 120 KM per day.
4.Others: The performance of the bike before and after 2nd service changes a lot, so please wait in case you have bought the bike and found it not suitably matching the attributes. Shock absorbers are not that great but I think that is the case with many a bikes. HORN, being real loud is a real asset for me, however some may find it annoying. Pickup of the bike is simply WOW!
