Nothing Noteworthy with a high price tag

Designing is just mediocre as seen from the pics here. A price tag of 65K for 125CC doesn't seems right. Most Indians don't own a currency mint. Four level gear box might ensure slightly better pickup but definitely not a smooth engine in long run.
And seriously, its not a universal truth that disk brakes will always perform better. It depends upon the hydraulic capacity of brake assembly.
Besides a drum brake assembly of larger diameter performs equivalent to majority of the disk brake assemblies sold in Indian market. needless to say that drums are very low on long term maintenance.
So if you are really looking for an executive bike for daily city commuting that performs well AND you aren't a YAMAHA fan etc ..... then this definitely isn't your pick.

It may be more effective if disc brake introduced.
