The engine comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox and claims a top speed of 125 kmph. sport-s-3 The motorcycles were not that efficient when tested by various publications and the built quality was not even upto the price segment. The recent hike could even discourage riders for spending around INR 1.57 lakh on a Renegade while they can even buy a more powerful and feature-loaded Bajaj Dominar 400 for just INR 1.36 lakh and Bajaj is also offering ABS-equipped Dominar for INR 1.50 lakhs.
