Features, and why each matters
Grouped by what they do for you. Underlined items link to a plain-English explainer.
Safety and braking
Tubeless tyres
A puncture deflates slowly instead of instantly, and roadside repair takes ten minutes.
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.
Chassis
Alloy wheels
Lighter than spoked wheels and they allow tubeless tyres.
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
USB charging port
Charges the phone on a long commute. Check whether it is Type-A or Type-C.
Idle start-stop
Engine switches off at signals and restarts on throttle. Worth 3–5% mileage in city traffic.
Engine kill switch
Switch the engine off from the right bar without reaching for the key.
