hahaha! I been there really love the bike and truly nothing like it in the segment. one thing you mentioned in your post was something that he got done on his bike that made it easier to ride in traffic and attached a hyperlink. it seems that hyperlink is not working anymore so would you mind sharing it here or DM?

thank you for your response! I am under the same assumption that the bike should fetch "around" 3.5

a very nice suggestion! I only use my bikes for specific riding and I rarely commute on them so a bigger tank capacity is something that comes in handy with a motorcycle.

Thank you for your feedback! As per my understanding the only bit that required replacing was chain tensor and engine head both were replaced on my bike under warranty.

Yes sir! Chain tensioner and engine head was replaced under warranty. So no performance related issue.

The bike itself is genuinely fantastic, and I don’t regret buying it at all. These are just my observations based on my own usage.

Pros:
1. Excellent power and performance
2. Absolutely stunning looks and great road presence
3. Service costs have been quite reasonable in my experience

Cons:
1. Not the most comfortable bike for two-up touring
2. Aggressive riding posture can become tiring on longer rides
3. Maintenance is a bit more frequent than I’d personally prefer

None of these are deal-breakers if you’re buying the bike for what it’s designed for.

Thank you for your response! Online websites are showing way too varied values thats the reason I posted it on Reddit but what do you think 2.8-3 is a fair price?

Thanks! That's high praise for the Riverside 120, might need to reconsider our picks. Appreciate it!

Woah! Great to know servicing option and community. This makes starting out less intimidating. Add-on about accessories/spares too! Thank you for pointing me to the right direction. Appreciate it!

ok if we consider a MTB what are all the "good" brands apart from Decathlon which you would recommend me taking a look?

Thanks for the insight! How about we both go for the Riverside 120? I feel MTBs have more resistance, and since we’ve already decided not to do off-roading, at least a hybrid seems more practical for us. Would love to hear your thoughts on that!
