The Spec'd take

Why it stands out

  • 889cc parallel-twin with a genuine 121 PS makes it one of the most powerful naked bikes sold in India
  • Real cornering ABS and traction control standard for genuine confidence at speed

Worth knowing

  • Real-world mileage drops to as low as 14 kmpl under aggressive city riding
  • At Rs 14.5 lakh, it is a genuinely low-volume halo model, not a mainstream purchase
