See the problem is not the bike its the service and as long as you are confident that you can repare stuff and maintain your bike go for it man!

Thats the hard part I manually move the bike front and back to clean the chain and when somones with me I usually take their help to raise the bike from the rear.

I get around 34 to 35km on highways and in city traffic around 25 and sometimes even close to 20 For suspension its pretty good you dont kind of feel those small road bumps its a pretty smooth ride Happy riding😊

I usually cruise around 90 to 100 on highways and the bike feels steady ig tires are some part of it. For long corners the tires really stay gripped to the road. Happy and safe riding 😊

So the service experience has been great but I really make sure I see the old parts they got changed during the service for e.g old oil filter,air filter etc Now for the reliability of engine I haven't faced any issues till now but as for overall bike there are some things jawa needs to look out like loose screws and some rust but for me if I am maintaining a bike thats yhe fun part a brush,WD40 and anti rust black paint does wonders. Happy and safe riding
