A broken clutch cable on my personal bike saw me land up with the Aviator as my long-termer. I was hesitant to use this scooter. But the Aviator is no let down and riding around 20km to work and back with Halley as pillion is not as arduous as I had imagined. The Aviator comes across as a big scooter when it comes to riding position and seat height and I must add, it's very comfort able for two in the city.

In the Pune monsoons, the tyres offer good grip for occasional spirited riding and the front telescopic suspension provides ample cushioning too. Brakes have impressed me the most. The front disc is much needed and hereon, I can't see myself ride a scooter with out disc brake. The plastics however could have been better. A heavy bag on the pillion's back and a few potholes saw the rear fairing crack.
