About the Reviewer

Very good mileage bike .Low maintenance bike. Look is not very good but its okay. For the price it is the best bike. Steel mudguard are awesome. But the height and length of the bike is not good. If there was a visor or windshield on it then it would look better. My riding experience on this bike is good but it is not very comfortable for long ride. But don't know why people does not like the bike ...Actually it is a very good bike to ride in traffic. I am very happy with my bike.

About the Reviewer

Hello friends, i purchased my hero honda cd-dawn on january 6 , 2010 from cheran hero based in thiruvananthapuram, kerala. I booked my bike for a fee of rs. 5000. And it took almost twenty four days to receive my bike. I was actually planning to buy passion plus, but my mother refused to buy for me because of a minor financial problem. It was my friend who suggested this bike to my mother. Initially, i was not happy about it , because cd-dawn is smaller in size and shorter in height compared to all other bikes. I myself is 5 feet 7 inches tall. Initially, when i started my bike and departed from the showroom, i did not find its seating position to suit me. I could not freely stretch my legs, as i was scared of my right foot depressing the rear brake pedal. But the ride and handling are very good and it is a no nonsense bike for the on-road price of rs 40000. Even though it is a short bike for me, it is a pretty decent city commuting bike. It is so nimble and lightweight at 107 kilograms. It is easy to traverse through city traffic and it is compact and easy to handle too. If taken proper care of, this bike will last for so many years. My bike is almost eight and a half years old and i have clocked 33000 kilometres so far. The only problem is this bike is not so good for long journeys. I am able to travel upto 80 kilometres long journeys ( to and fro ). But i have felt neck pain, foot joint pain, hand joint pain and also i have felt pain in my left foot joint not enabling me to shift the gear pedal. But, in the city, i am really very comfortable with this bike. This bike gives a fuel efficiency of 65 kilometres per litre. You can ride this bike comfortably at speeds upto 50 kilometres per hour, this is the sweet spot for this bike. If you take the bike beyond 50, it gets strained and it refuses to go forward fast. So far, i have never had any major issues with this bike. So far, i have replaced batteries three times. The first battery which was originally fitted in my bike was amco. It reached the end of its life after almost two years ( one year and ten months ). My second battery was an exide and it lasted for more than five and a half years. Now, i have my third battery which is also an exide maintenance free battery which is almost eight months old. Then i have replaced my clutch cable once and my speedometer cable thrice. I have not replaced my tires till today. It is still good. Other than these issues, i have never experienced any other issues. This bike does not score much in the looks department. It has a basic design nothing eye catching. It is a simple basic design. Then there is no fuel meter gauge. As a result, i have to reach the reserve point of the bike to know the condition and level of fuel. Servicing by dealer is a not so great affair. But if you know any good local road side mechanic, he will take care of good service for you. Maintenance is reasonable. Parts are not so expensive and being a hero product with a good number of service networks all over India, maintaining this bike is not at all a problem. This bike is best suited for city commuting as this bike's engine construction is not suited for long rides. Any ride for more than 50 kilometres distance will take a toll on your body. This is strictly for city use. Easy to handle through heavy traffics. Light and nimble. Good shock absorbers which does decent job on city roads. Great mileage. This bike is not suited for anybody above 5 feet 7 inches. This bike should be gently used with utmost care. Not good for long rides.

About the Reviewer

I use the bike for daily commute.. And it has never given me any sort of trouble.. As i am a bit oversized the seating is not quite comfortable when i ride for longer time.. Mileage is great.. You can adjust the handle bars according to the height you want which has increased the comfort while riding.. Overall it is a great bike with minimum maintenance
