Tip of the Day

Careful with that leaking water tanker ahead

That water tanker ahead, trailing a stream of 'precious' water behind it. Treat the patch as you would the entire road during rain. Even a foot-wide trail of water is enough to cause you to skid and fall.

    I almost died waiting, since the time you first posted the teaser on FB... but I must say what a fresh breath of life this write up and captures have turned out to be!! Neither I couldn't have asked for more not I could have asked for better!!

    Simply A.W.E.S.O.M.E!!

    Thanks Sajal!
    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

    Same here was eagerly waiting for the Review KEN-da. Just ASADHARON!!!

    Some queries though KEN-da,

    1. Keyhole below rear Tail Lamp
    2. Exhaust on the left so any pillion issues
    3. Pictures of Dashboard is missed
    4. Headlight details and DRLs

    Yes pictures are awesome and only f1.8 & f2.8 can do justice to this.
    34567 kms and ZMR sold :(

    Finally I can see powerful torquey PRACTICAL bike in India.

    The boxer engines are no doubt class apart..

    Thanks Ken Da for the wonderful Pictures and a good Verdict.

    Good Review. Of course this bike might not find too many takers in India courtesy form > function here. Personally, if I have to go for a naked from the BMW stable I would go for the K1300R. How is K13R for in India?

    Though there is no doubt about the quality of the bike, I feel that the cost is a tad too much, considering you get can get some very powerful nakeds and save money to buy a decent car as well. But then, a BMW is a BMW.

    Keep your bike in good repair: Motorcycle boots are NOT comfortable for walking.
