Honda Dream Yuga: Vibration Issue/Speed Test

My Dream Yuga has clocked more than 640KM and the first service is done in time. Today I taken it above 50KM per hour speed for the first time. By the time you reach 58KM it vibrates considerably. I've taken it up to 75KM and above 70 it vibrates like a vibrator!! I would say if you need a two wheeler to ride above 60KM speed, Dream Yuga is definitely not the one for you. Sitting on it above 60KM speeds is not comfortable at all.

Honda Dream Yuga Mileage

I've filled tank full of petrol when the ODO meter reading is 3KM and I filled tank full again when I clocked 492KM and that was 640 rupees petrol. I'm using the bike 100% on Bangalore city traffic.

Current petrol price in Bangalore is Rs. 75.91
So I've filled 640/75.91 = 8.43 liters.

Mileage = (492-3)/8.43 = 58.01KM per liter. Which is very good with in the Bangalore city. Also this is the observation before the first service. I hope the mileage will increase after 1 or 2 services.

10th October 2012: Mileage after 1st service

My Dream Yuga has clocked 956 in the odo when I filled the fuel for 3rd time. I've filled fuel for 602.88 INR

Current petrol price in Bangalore 75.17
So I've filled 602.88/75.17 = 8.02 liters

Mileage = (956-492)/8.02 = 57.86 KM per liter.

Note: Considering the heavy traffic in the area (Bangalore) I commute daily and the huge traffic jams in couple of days due to heavy rains, I don't think this mileage is bad at all.
