The fictional commuter bike weighs 128 kg and costs 1.12 lakh rupees ex-showroom.

The Roadie 150, a fictional commuter bike, weighs 128 kg and is easy to manage in traffic.

The engine feels smooth up to 80 km/h but is short of power above that. Seat comfort is good for rides under an hour.

It costs 1.12 lakh rupees ex-showroom. We have not yet tested its fuel economy.
