American motorcycle manufacturer UM Motorycles has received 1,000 bookings for its Renegade range of motorcycles in less than two months since it started India operation. The range includes Renegade Commando and Renegade Sport S.

The suspension duties in both the Renegade cruiser motorcycles are handled by hydraulic telescopic 41mm at the front and twin hydraulic shock absorbers at the rear.
The Renegade Commando measures 2,257 in length, 1,140 in height, 780mm in width and has wheelbase of 1,545mm.
