    We’ll list out the things we felt have room for improvement first. The ergonomics are too racy, the brakes could do with more power, there’s a bit too much plastic on the bike – although the quality in most places is not an issue. The boost charger is also heavy and quite pricey, but it’s something you’ll need if you plan to take on the significant commitment of touring on an F77.

    However, there are a lot of reasons to applaud the F77 as well. Its acceleration is very intoxicating, and there were absolutely no electronic glitches, which is shockingly rare from an EV start-up. The 200km+ range means you can take it for a short weekend ride, which is how most sportbike owners tend to use their bikes. There’s no denying the fact that at Rs 4.55 lakh, the F77 Recon is a highly pricey proposition with a very limited dealership reach across India right now. But, if this is a first taste of what direction electric mobility will take, sign me up.
