The difference is primarily lesser power and torque and cheaper price. 84 kmpl is not real world efficiency. Both bikes have the same chassis, engine and electricals.
What are differences between 100T and 100M ? A side by side comparision would be better.
I mean is 100M not as strong as 100T?
Is the frame of 100T better than 100M?
Does 100M have DC headlamps(flicker free) ?
Is 84kmpl true in real conditions
Please reply.
