Hi

Those condem this bike, please do watch this video

https://youtu.be/PzmOxIy9loc

For pricing, its consider expensive because :
- showa up side down front absorber
- rear mono shock also from showa, adjuatable 7 tier
- channel abs (both rear and front brake will activate when emergency brake)
- slipper clutch. No worries of engine jerking when low rpm
- led headlight

Also, single cylinder althouth people mindset say its not powerful, go try urself. Big single piston 250 combustion vs 125x2 combustion. Its like 1explosion hand grenade vs 2 explosion mercun bola. Best bike example ktm 690 duke using single piston saiz penumbuk mike tyson. Drag race 300m easily bye bye inline 4er

Those praise 2 cylinder 250 zeddy, ninja & r25, dun compare just engine. Compare the offerings they made.

Cheers

acceleration wise after corner single cylinder is better but for topspeed wise 2 cyl will smoke cb ass.

The slipper clutch thing to avoid engine jerking? As long as you are in the correct gear, it won't jerk.

slipper clutch is useful for racing when you downshift hard rear because tire might lock if you didnt throttle blip correctly to rev match.

This is a street bike.  So no need to talk about top speed.

And how often one will hit top speed ?  Want to die so fast is it.

Acceleration pick up is more important for daily use and Street riding.

250cc top speed aint fast. Wont die.
