overdrive's long term test report on Flyte

Overdrive JULY 2008 issue features a long term test update on the Flyte (tested over 2303 km). Some notable points:
" The Flyte surprised me as I rode it for the first time with its quick acceleration & I was taken aback at its quick throttle response. Whack the throttle open & the scooter zooms ahead with a definitive surge."
"Using the Flyte has totally changed my perspective about scooters and I really enjoy riding it in the city for little errands as it is fast and zippy, easily maneuverable in traffic and also good for carrying small loads."
"the Flyte was a big help last month when I was shifting and was able to carry almost everything on it without much hassle."
"Also its quick acceleration makes overtaking big cars & SUVs a breeze without the fear of being thrown off the road. The brakes too complement well in times of need and the tyres provide ample grip. The ride quality is decent too with the telescopic forks doing duty up front and the twin shock absorbers at the rear."
"The best feature about the Flyte are its foldable rear-view mirrors which are a boon in tight parking slots and can be folded in completely without being damaged."

The storage in the front is very handly with the cell charger. The most impressive thing about the Flyte however is the petrol tank access in the front; no more pillion riders getting off at petrol stations.” - Shivani

Other comments on the Flyte:

• Flyte looks cute as ever
• The Flyte rates as ideal wheels for the fair sex
• Our female testers for the day couldn’t stop singing praises of the Flyte virtues. The seat-handlebar-footboard relation is the best for ladies and the low perch is tailormade for them. Convenient features like mobile charger, front fuel filler & segmented underseat stowage add to the value
• Flyte established a handing benchmark
• Flyte suspension is set up quite soft, in keeping with her lady like profile
• Front fuel filler is super convenient
• The motor though feels unstressed all through the rev range
• Fuel tank elsewhere endows the Flyte with a lot of extra space under the seat. A half face helmet fits easily & is illuminated too
• Silver console & clock layout on the Flyte’s dash are vibrant & fresh.
