It sits below the current top-end Dual-channel USD forks variant, which costs ₹1,26,290 ex-showroom and above the Dual-channel ABS variant, which is priced at ₹1,16,773 ex-showroom.
The new variant comes with upside-down forks finished in golden colour, but it misses out on a split seat design. Instead, it has a single-piece seat, which should be more comfortable for the pillion. Moreover, the split grab rails have also been replaced with a new single-piece unit.
