Standard - 500

Spares are more or less common to that of the STD 350, except the engine block, head valves and silencer. Most common complaint - piston rings wear off faster (at around 10000- 12000 kms) than the STD 350, but that is really not an issue once you know what the bike can deliver. Does a decent 115- 120kph, gulps a little more that the 350 but its worth when you just need that extra pull when over taking at high speeds. Ideal for long distance cruising, the clutch performs better on inclines or mountain climbs. Electrical are slight better compared to the 350, Front brake is slightly larger that the 350. This is the best bike for touring in India.

If you need the PEP this is the bike for you.
