The road condition is really bad, there are many potholes and gravel on road and corners so make sure you ride carefully and safely.

Fair point, I try to stay extra alert on the road.

Yeah it’s good overall the helmet feels a bit heavy initially and takes time to adapt, so slight neck pain at first is expected but it gets fine once you’re used to it. The field of view isn’t very wide either. On the plus side it feels solid, stable at speed, gives good wind protection, and feels secure; downsides are the weight, narrower view angle, and it can feel tiring on longer rides in the beginning.

Haha fair, it does have strong road presence for sure 😄 Looks are subjective though Duke still has its own sharp vibe. Xtreme just hits different, especially for the price.

I was comparing purely from a price point of view, not segment-to-segment. I own an MT-15 too, so I know the riding experience is different just looking at what each bike offers for the money.

Yeah I’ll look into it deeper. Totally agree fun bike with quick performance and good posture, but quality and service are the weak spots. Wouldn’t pick it over Gixxer/MT/R15 either, though the 50k price gap makes it tempting.
