Hi... as requested by one of you... I give in my input on the LML adreno... Rode on one for about a week, a friend had one...
This was the Adreno FX. The one with the half fairing and stuff..
The Lml twins, Adreno and energy were launched with a 100 cc engine, but the first bikes to sport 4 valve configuration in the head. Now more valves mean better air-fuel mixture to enter the cylinder, and hence more power, better efficiency.
Then some time later were launched the same bikes but with the FX tag to them. This time a 110cc, 8.5 BHP bike. and incidentally this particular bike was what I rode.
Alright the looks of the bike are contemporary, with the front looking fantastically fast, but the rear could have been made better, I mean the big rear light cluster looks a lil non- sporty for such a designed bike.
Double downtube, great handling it gets, the fat rear tyre gives it good grip, with the chassis handling of the Adreno, Its a bike that couldve done with more power.
The fairing was a first of its kind, the GF 170 and the Karizma comin in much later.
one gripe is that the bike couldve done with a front disc, but then I think they did launch it.
Performance wise, it feels like a bigger bike, but then when u push it to its limits, it runs out of steam. is a good city bike, will return fuel average between 50-60.
