And ofc attaching the attestation to the fact that you prefer GT650R (booking receipt

) leaves no doubt about your personal preference of bike. Congrats on the booking

PS: Lovely pictures as usual!

Thanks Shivanshu and Sksy. I have duly mentioned why I chose the GT650R in the review, but this is no way means that I dont like the N650R! I would prefer to have both in my garage minus the Ninja 250 (because that will make me a Ninja fanboy)

)
Vertically stacked projector lamps
Proper super sports styling
The rear with the meaty flanked exhaust
Exhaust note

Rideability

The above picture a says a lot abt ride position

Nice write up ... But like said , if one needs to find out for himself what suits best, take a Test Ride of both ... As stated earlier, you can compare Green and Red apples, you need to take a small bite just to find which suits to your taste

It was clear enough as to why – the people in the first group had a very high tendency to think what if they had chosen the ‘other’ phone.

Now the dream of having a "sports bike" very much comes close to be reality.

Nice write up Sunny...

Wanted to know, does GT has the heating problem? I mean does the tank becomes really hot and makes difficult to ride in Delhi?

I am waiting for Bajaj to roll Bigger Ninja's.....any news on that.

Thanks,
Prabhjot

Hey Sunny bhai .. Very nice review and a "BIG CONGRATS" for booking the GTR

...

redrage · 06-23-2011, 11:32 AM

Very nice review and pretty much balanced. It would be really good if some test numbers like acceleration,in gear rollons & efficiency are added too.
More choice for the performance oriented / fuel conscious buyer.

@Sunny: congrats on the GT650R.

The all Red one is my favourite colour option too.

how did you guys get these figures?

i found these online.

i don't know how accurate these are too.

i've ridden the GT650R... and i've only sat on the N650R...
and while the is a big difference in the riding position...
the N650R riding position was definitely more than 6 degrees.

Xionite ... As far as is remember there are few parameters to be configures on this site like inseam etc. ( dont remember all ). This angle can be different for differently built people in my opinion. For e.g. for shorter people the lean may be more. For heighted people the lean may be less .....

Although this I am telling from what I once observed and understood from that site.

@ Sunny,
Remember reading about the GT review in one of the auto magazines, feedback was provided that the mill would vibrate post 6K RPM. Is that true? Did you feel any vibrations on the handle bar or the seat?

Nice Review and Photos are really good whats the camera kit and editing software used
