Overall It's good for long rides with the following pros and cons Pros:Good mileage (60-80 KMPH speed)Handling and road grip and balance is excellentCornering stability is goodTrusted and well refined engineSuspension is good to tackle rough roads.Cons:Feels somewhat underpowered on highways (149 CC engine)Since engine is air cooled so it's advisable to cruise under 80 KMPH speedMissing a lot 6th gear on highway cruising.Need to take a break after every 100 to 120 km to get engine cooled down (since it's a air cooled engine and getting heated )

It's great for long ride but for pillon it can be little bit rough and discomfort where the pillion will feel numb in his back after 2 to 3 hours . There are few issues like chain loosening from the set and the small sprocket will fall , coil problem in the engine you need to check on this after this battery check whether you have the light and horns are operating correctly from time to time .

I had a ride of 540 km in a single day with only 2 breaks and with 116-120 cruising speed in NH for about 2 hours continuously, don't worry it's a beast. You can do anything with it. And had got it serviced 8 months ago before the ride

Yes of course...I personally went for around 700kms in one short, with minimum breaks in between.But if your going for some adverse terrain then go for some other bikes like Royal Enfield etc., as the tyres are pretty soft n not recommended for hilly or adverse terrain.

Yes it is good for Long ridea as well as for commute rides also because of its FI and Fuel efficiency and smooth riding at 80-90 KMPH without any vibration and better seat posture than R15 which reduces backpain and Arm pain and its monoshock suspension and front wider forks are awesome for long rides.

Since it's an air cooled engine it's better to maintain your speed under 80 or 6500 RPM and you would be good for atleast 400kms a day

Yes, but definition of long varies from rider to rider. As per my experience this bike is better for 100-200 kms max..Need to take breaks in between and with pillion not that much comfortable..beyond 100-150kms.

Being a 150cc bike...vibrations can be felt as soon as it reaches 80kmph. For long rides i would suggest opting for fz25, mahindra mojo or dominar 400. as these three bikes are comfortable and reliable.
