If there are good vibes then only we can discuss. Yes I will give you riding in Zip mode is exhillerating. But the good vibes of Rizta end there. My Rizta is making sound like a 20 year old HOnda splender. Once I went on those tiny rumblers at high speed and the front black panel (which is where the headlight normally is in other scoother) started making a sound. If I take like deep turns when slow or when getting out of parking I feel the front wheel wobble or like its getting loose(I have a doubth my Ather was not assembled properly the mirrors and other parts were loose) but after a while I catch up speed and its ok. I don’t know why when its the same motor did they cap the speed at 80. I actually purchased the Rizta because the Showroom staff said its the exact same motor of the 450X. Otherwise I would have purchased the 450X I was pumped after riding in sports(I think that is what its call basically the mode which is more faster than the Zip mode) The showroom actually lie they said charging time for 80% They conviniently did not mention. Right now my Rizta is giving me 68 Km on Zip Mode. While on SE mode its 96 I have the Rizta Z the second model which they claimed that time range was only 100KM but now ithey are claiming 123. SO I am pissed I paid 1.58 lakhs and get less rang. I would have actually got the 450 Apex if I had know they would cap the speed. I got it for the large boot space but its not that larger that the Apex or 450 x I could have managed with the frontie. My biggest problem is the seat is like too thin on 450/Apex. That is not where it ends. My Auto Hold mode is disabled or else my bike just auto holds anywhere while riding and then you can’t move the bike. They took 10 days to repair this but the “build up” to the problem started again. What I mean by “build up” is that when the problem first started the auto hold icon would show when riding. Then after a week it would be continously on then when riding my throttle would not respond But it would get allright. Then it would get worse and then it would reach a stage where it would not work at allThen I would have to twist it front and then raise it then it would go only half I had to do that twist and let go till I couild reach home. So after service it reached the stage where the throttle would stop responding while riding. So I said I can’t keep the bike for service for 10 days these guys have not clue they just reset everything so its working. I disabled the auto hold. Now also when I move back a little while leaving a signal or starting the bike the throttle doesn’t respond until I twist it back and then raise it again.
then i feel cheated All EV bikes that cost less have more range and have all accessories like mat foot rest and a center stand. It was very cheap of Ather to not include this. Back then thought Ola was cheaper there were bad stories baout it so I did not go for it also the riding experience is not as great as the Ather. Now looking back I should have spent 8K on my Old pulsar and reregistered it and waiting I could have gone in for the INdie Rider or the New Scooter from Ultraviolet which has a range of 162 so in real world it would be 130. Top speed of 125Km. I feel cheated this bike and all bikes of Ather are overpriced considering the fact that they are buggy lack basic accessories and have less range and lower charging speeds.
