This is the first time I am writing a review on a bike. I am a 1st year btech student. In this review I am concentrating only on the riding part and not in styling because looks are subjective. My father owns a gem of a bike the HH splendor 2000 model. I am quite inexperienced but I can definitely judge a bike's performance.
Coming back to GS 150R the 1st thing I noticed was that the initial pickup was not electric. I think my spelndor has even greater pickup in 1st gear. The bike has very low vibrations and I was impressed by its smoothness. The bike is quite stable and is very comfortable and has a soft touch to it. I've ridden honda unicorn and I feel gs 150r is more comfortable than unicorn. The ride in honda unicorn is more stiffer when compared to gs.
This may be because of mono suspension. the upshift is butter smooth .it was even smoother than my spendor but I had problems in downshifting from 3rd to 2nd two times. This may have happened since it's a new bike.Although this bike is very heavy, heavier than unicorn it doesn't show while riding. In case of handling the bike is very stable. Cornering stability is good too. The bike can be easily manoevoured into tight turns but honda unicorn is better in this department.braking stability is also good and doesn't show any signs of skidding while braking hard.
All in all this is a very good bike and I would definitely like to buy one.
