The beauty of motorcycling is that, regardless of your budget, you can still find a decent bike under 1 lac. The Roadmaster Prime 80 is one such motorcycle, and the remarkable fact is that it's mass-produced in Bangladesh, offering insight into all bike price.

The Roadmaster Prime 80, an 84.41 cc commuter bike, was designed with the average income of a regular Bangladeshi in mind. Roadmaster received a positive response from the biking community due to its affordability, making it accessible in terms of Roadmaster bike price in Bangladesh.

Key Features:

The Roadmaster Prime 80 comes with a special feature that even high-end bikes don't get, a USB port. Running out of the battery of the phone in the middle of nowhere is a scenario, in which bikers often find themselves in. Having a USB port eliminates that problem. And the best thing about the USB port is that, unlike most aftermarket ones, this one comes with a waterproof cap.

The dash of this bike is probably better than most bikes available in the market. It comes with a Gear position indicator, which is a luxury and a plus point for a new rider. It also comes with a battery health meter, which is very important for a bike. The rest of the functions are all analog and are quite average.

The bike comes with simple yet sleek graphics. If you look at it from a distance, it might look like one of the small classic motorcycles that we all love. It comes in one single color, which is red.

Physical Attributes:

The Roadmaster Prime 80 has a fairly low seat height, which allows riders even of 5'1" to ride the bike fairly easily. The bike is also slim and lightweight, which ensures that the bike is easily maneuverable. The bike also has an upright pipe handlebar, which means the rider will not have any shoulder pain either.

The Roadmaster Prime 80 has a height, width, and length of 1210 mm, 860 mm, and 1930 mm. The bike is fairly slim, which will make it easy to commute on, as the bike can squeeze through most of the city traffic. It also has an 8.5-liter fuel storage tank, which may seem inconvenient, but it does have good mileage.

Engine and Transmission:

The Roadmaster Prime 80 boasts an 84.41cc, 4-stroke, single-cylinder engine equipped with EFT technology to prevent overheating. It delivers an impressive power output of 6.03BHP at 8000rpm and offers efficiency with a claimed mileage of 70kmpl, which has been tested at around 60kmpl and above.

Featuring a 4-speed gearbox, this bike eliminates the need to downshift while taking turns, as the engine brake provides ample assistance.

Brakes, Suspension, and Wheels:

The Roadmaster Prime 80 has drum brakes for both the front and the rear. This does seem a bit boring or backdated, but an 84.41cc bike is fine with drum brakes. Also considering most riders will be very new riders, they will not get overwhelmed and will have a good learning curve.

The Roadmaster Prime 80 is equipped with telescopic forks in the front, ensuring a smooth ride through the city's pothole-riddled streets. Additionally, the bike incorporates spring-loaded rear suspensions, primarily aimed at cost-efficiency.

One standout feature is the inclusion of alloy wheels, a notable addition to a bike in this price range. The bike also sports 2.50/17 tires in the front and 2.75/17 tires in the rear. Notably, the rear tire features semi-off-road treads, making it suitable for tackling rainy and muddy conditions without much hassle.

Target Audience:

The Roadmaster Prime 80 was not made for performance, rather it was made for efficiency. It was not made for style; it was made to take its rider from one place to another. It was not made to look good; it was made to do good. The Roadmaster Prime 80 is for the rider on a bike who is on a budget and just wants a bike to commute. This bike also is for the ones who are still learning to ride and want to learn on an affordable bike before getting a bigger bike.

Overall, the Roadmaster Prime 80 is a cost-effective bike in terms of bike price in BD, offering good comfort within its limits. While it's well-built, it does use materials typical for its price range.
