The deliveries of the bike can start from the last week of November or the first week of December.

Styling and Features
The company has taken many styling elements from the company’s Kawasaki Z900RS. However, it gets a smaller tank and a compact tail section.

Several parts like the engine, frame and swingarm have been blacked out to give a sporty look and feel. Standard telescopic forks at the front and monoshock rear suspension have been given.
