Features, and why each matters
Grouped by what they do for you. Underlined items link to a plain-English explainer.
Safety and braking
ABS on the front wheel only. Far better than none; the rear can still lock.
Front disc brake
Sheds heat and works when wet. Worth the small premium over a drum on any commuter.
Side-stand engine cut-off
Engine will not run with the stand down, which prevents a common low-speed crash.
Hazard lamps
All four indicators flash; useful in fog and when stopped on a highway shoulder.
Lighting
LED daytime running lamp
Makes you visible to cars in daylight, when most two-wheeler collisions happen.
Console and connectivity
Digital console
Trip meters, real-time mileage and a gear indicator. The analogue dial is disappearing.
Convenience
Engine kill switch
Switch the engine off from the right bar without reaching for the key.
Equipment against Rebel 300, Ronin 225 and Pulsar N160 4V
What it lacks: rear disc brake, alloy wheels, slipper clutch and led headlamp, which rivals at this price offer. The safety items in that list matter more than the console.
It is offered in 2 colours: Auburn Black and Moon White. Colour availability varies by variant and dealer stock.
