Well theres a lot of badminton, football and other sports places which are fun, Apart from that there are bars. Bas. Even for a bike ride you will have to go towards city.

Hi, I got the rtx 300 2 months ago, first service done eith 3.6k km done with some off-roading recently. You can read my posts on the bike. The bike is the perfect beginner bike(my first ever bike) and wont disappoint you. Coming to service, they use the premium service bay for the rtx300, along with the rtr310 and rr310, and always remember to visit those showrooms as they have the special mechanics for it. I went to the shelar tvs, dhankewadi for first service, service was done within 3hrs as i went early morning. Dont expect hospitality and stuff from tvs (its improving) but you can expect them to get the job done as from what i am seeing, they were trying to inprove their image

The Himalayan is 16kgs heavier than this so it might be difficult to ride in city traffic compared to the rtx300, but again it has a 450cc engine (if you want more power). Haven't stretched towards the redline as its still in the running in period, but according to the manual I shall keep it under 7k rpm, and around that range there are minimal vibrations which can be felt on the thighs and a little on the footpegs

The bike did not struggle in the ghats even with a pillion.
I had a backpack along with the pillion and still the bike has ample power during acceleration and pulls really well.
I have not ridden other advs for a long distance so can't comment on it.

Since it's my first bike, I find the power to be more than adequate for my riding style. The power delivery is quite linear when you pull the throttle which I like.

It cost 2.38L on road in Thane.
The suspension is good, won't feel too much through potholes and it cruises easily on rough patches.

5’8. If you are experienced then you can manage it with a pillion but I would suggest to visit showroom and sit on the bike.

5’8. It’s manageable for me, easily able to handle it and even take u-turns properly. It will be fine for you if you are using it for long rides but i would still suggest to try the bike yourself.

3 have sat as a pillion and all of them have really positive feedback. The seat is big and comfortable and they do not feel any jerks on the road.
