  KINETIC GF125 : Road test by Dilip Bam


FUEL EFFICIENCY:
The moot question! "kya average hai?" I did quite a few bottle tests. On a highly dug up road (near my house) where pipe laying work was going on and mounds of loose earth were strewn around necessitating many gear changes and travelling in low gear was necessary, the GF returned 44 kpl. On a not so crowded road at speeds between 60 and 70 kph, it returned 49 kpl. At speeds around 45 kmph on a sparsely trafficked road it gave 59 kmpl and at steady 40 on a slightly downward slope it gave an astounding 65 kmpl. Discounting the worst and best figures, the overall fuel average came out to 55 kmpl, which for a bike with these traits is bluddee good!

FINALLY:
Kinetic has come of age. By producing the GF, Kinetic has proved that it has what it takes. The GF itself is quite a package. Great looks - full marks for that. Three, color choices - Red, silver and metallic black - for now. A one year / 15000 km warranty.

Electric start. Disc brakes. Very good fuel efficiency. The works. The price?

Rs.52,178/- on-road Pune for the drum brake version and Rs.55,165/- on-road Pune for the disc brake version on 10 May 2002 at Kinetic Pavilion, Pune.

How You Sing, Anyone? Make that Hyosung.
