America based United Motors first showcased its Renegade Commando at the 2014 Auto Expo in Delhi. Now, the Miami based motorcycle company is all set to launch this cruiser motorcycle in the Indian market at an attractive price tag of 1.25 lakh.
Powering the Renegade Commando is a 223cc single Cylinder, 4-Stroke – air cooled engine which puts out 18hp of power at 8,000 rpm and 15.5Nm of torque at 5500 rpm. Power is transferred to the wheel via a five-speed transmission. This cruiser will be offered in three colours: matte green, black and white.
The Renegade Commando is a good choice for people who want stylish looks at an affordable price tag. The brand that shares its homeland with Harley Davidson and Indian Motorcycles will prove to be an ideal value for money product. But the company will have to ensure availability of spares and build a strong dealer and service network before it puts the Renegade Commando up for sale.

Well..!! I am waiting for this one since I have seen it at Expo.
So Definitely I am going for this. Hope the Ground Clearance, Availability of Spares is upto the mark.
Dear Amarjeet,
The UM Renegade Commando is still not available for sale, reason why no reviews are available yet.
I think Royal Enfield is better as for a new bike spares & repair is difficult to find and there is no review of bike is available.
What’s the Ground Clearance?
