The updated motorcycle also comes with LED Headlamp with integrated daytime running lamps, new mirrors, as well as hand-guards to offer extra protection

Currently, in India, ABS is mandatory only in two-wheelers that have an engine capacity of 125 cc or more. So, offering ABS technology with a 110 cc motorcycle is certainly a welcome addition for the segment. An anti-lock braking system or ABS comes with an electronic controller that monitors the wheel speed under sudden or extreme braking, and through a feedback loop, releases and reapplies the brakes, faster than any human intervention can manage. In doing so, the system works to prevent 'locking' of the wheel, which otherwise may cause loss of control or skidding.

The updated motorcycle also comes with LED Headlamp with integrated daytime running lamps, new mirrors, as well as hand-guards to offer extra protection.
