Thoughts About The New Bajaj Platina 110 ABS

Though the government mandates the use of ABS on two-wheelers displacing more than 125cc, it is a much-welcomed gesture from Bajaj Auto to launch a 115cc motorcycle equipped with the ABS feature. This is a very positive gesture, and we hope to see more two-wheeler manufacturers following this practice.
