  Chassis & Suspension

Rugged enough to get the job done.

The Boss was initially designed to take the erstwhile Challenger downmarket and into the rural household. As such it required a tough chassis to take in the demands of strenuous rural usage as well as have strong suspension componentry to take in the (over) loading typical in the hinterland. It is this tried and tested package that forms the backbone of the Boss 115.

The dual tube cradle frame makes for a sufficiently flex-free package. Mated to suspension components that are set-up on the stiffer side, it gives the Boss handling capabilities that are good enough to exploit the limits of tyre capabilities. The ride quality though slightly stiff is good enough to handle most if not all kinds of road in urban India and almost anything in rural India. Admirably the pillion does not upset the balance of the bike too much though the seat foam padding is overly soft and results in a sore backside for both rider and pillion in a few miles of riding.
