Hi Everyone,
I'm from mumbai and own a Bullet Electra 5S, want to do some basic mods like lowering seat height add a backrest, change handlebars and if possible add a fatter and smaller rear tyre all in a bid to make it a more comfertable ride for long touring.
As i'm new to mumbai need your inputs on which is the best mech or customization shop I should go. I tried Verdanchi but its way out of my budget.
Friends your reverts would be really appreciated

Get hold of some avenger rare wheel. They look good with bulls and it suits your requirement of a fatter and smaller rare tyre.

My suggestion is not to do modification on filter and wheel however handlebars, seat adjustment is ok.

Filters (K&N) is not really good for the indian roads, i had a problem of engine choke. it is good if you want to cover the filter and use.

there are two good mechanic in mumbai one in chembur(Mallik) and one in Juhu (Antony), you can consult them for any modificaton.

Happy thumping.
