For decades, Honda has been the sole ruler in Pakistan’s biking market. However, in recent years, several new brands have launched innovative models that are successfully creating a ripple effect in our economy. A few days back, we reviewed Hi-Speed Batllo, and now, the Superstar 200R has emerged as another contender in that domain. Let’s hear it out from its owner.
Purchase Decision
Previously, Daud shared his honest opinion about the Vlektra Retro. Soon after that he transitioned to a 200cc street naked bike. Not only this, but he has also driven two-wheelers from YBR, Honda, and others. The main reason for landing on the 2024 Superstar 200R is that electric bikes don’t support longer routes because of their incompatible charging range. Since Daud has a regular profile, he wanted a motorcycle that could let him travel to destinations like Deosai and Taobat without worrying about fuel refills. Purchased in second-hand condition at a price bracket of 5.30 lacs, this was a deal for Daud.
Features And Specs
This one has an impressive exterior and aggressive street naked body style, best suited for city commutes and occasional off-road trips. It comes with a digital speedometer, a fuel gauge, an RPM indicator, a self-start option, front and rear disc brakes, rear mono-shocks, and front inverted telescopic shocks.
Modification And Issues
Daud has kept it stock in all technical aspects while giving tiny exterior tweaks by installing side mirrors, Akrapovic exhaust, a fine seat cover, and an exceptional wrap.
Verdict
While comparing this 200 CC Superstar bike with the Hi-Speed Batllo, this one has a better grip and driving experience. It delivers smooth engine power and gives a fuel economy of 30 to 35 Km/L. As far as issues are concerned, it has an erroneous fuel gauge and crankshaft. In addition, parts’ unavailability is its biggest problem.
Where new models show a progressive market, some areas should be worked out. Specifically, lawmakers should launch a price maintenance structure, and special consideration must be given to initiating local assembly, which would eventually help lower prices.
