And yeah there are hardly any Twisters on the roads. The bike sales just haven't taken off yet.
HellsFury, I too have travel with my wife atleast 25% of the time..

I hope ur wife sits Double sided always..what was her opinion when she has sat single sided?

By the way have u got in a pillion holder fitted? the one showrooms guys are giving is really very poor/bad looking..Also by any way could we have that thing fixed in a way it doesnt take off the appeal of the bike too much?

let me know!!

Get all these from GP road. You can get a good price. Dont mind spending more (above Rs.1000/-) for a good helmet.

For all guys, check your mileage only after the first service. To be precise, you should check only after running-in (above 1000 km)
I argued with the showrooms guys for Ten Minutes and then left the matter..Its not for not giving Proper Address proof but it seems like 100 is the amount that goes into the pocket of RTO for every bike that is being registered..50 bikes registered in a day,the whole team of RTO shares
5000rs that day..

Taking and even Giving bribe is a punishable crime.

By the way, who knows the Rs. 100 might go into the showroom guys pocket too. After all there would be no documented proof.

Dear i have mentioned on road price...and yes it an Base model price...List of Price are as in Delhi

Delhi CB TWISTER KICK DRUM ALLOY Rs. 43,040 ( Rs. 46,902* on Road) CB TWISTER SELF DISK ALLOY Rs. 49,152 ( Rs. 53,445* on Road) CB TWISTER SELF DRUM ALLOY Rs. 46,096 (Rs. 50,174* on Road)

*On road price does not include optional items like - Accessories, Extended warranty, AMC..

Accessories and other things are optional...although i suggest accessories to be purchase from outside as it cost low as compared to showroom price...

Yes, she sits double sided always. She tried sitting single sided once but she was not very comfortable. But that could be because she is not used to sitting like this.

Nope, I don't have a pillion holder fitted. What is that anyway?

me getting mileage of 64-67

lowest was 64 now in rains ..in mumbai

ii have seen tire pressure recomended for front is 25
and rear is 36-41 single/pillon

36 psi on rear tire with pillion makes the bike wobble -- hence i keep 41 psi but MRF recommends this( 41) as max air pressure for rear

is this a good practice even if i am riding single most of time ?

I am all excited as I have taken Delivery of my Boy yesterday..They paid me back 740 bucks as the Saree gaurd was out of stock and

also the money they have charged for 1.5 % extra bcoz of some new service Tax regulation..so Total on road price is

56090 + 538( accessories) + 700 (Affidavit) = 57350Rs on Road

I also bought a New helmet for Rs1100 from GP Road..saw it ,Liked it and bought it..Didnt worry much about Company quality etc..

here u go woth some of the pictures..Third one is the sales Guy with my Dad..More to come..
