^^
Remember they have these chargers in their Scooties .....so this is not new---- but for a Bike like Star City which is only for Commuters - i dont think this is a nice decision

If it would have been Implemented in the RTR.....It would have proved more goodness.......

In business world, Change is good as long as it pays back dividends.
Basically, its just a socket which gives power taken from the 12V battery, isn't it?

I wonder if this feature can attract customers by itself?

See, Mobile Charger can easily be attached to any of the Indian bikes, Go to a Car Auto parts shop & ask them about the ciggarate lighter slot of Indica(in this case) and get it attached to your bike by any electrician, one of my college friends have done the same.

Think u were in leh and your mobile is about to run out of juice ! (don't tell me there is no n/w coverage is leh

)

Atleast it's good while touring long distances where access to electricity is impossible

Looking at the other options I have
1. I take a 4X4 that has 12V adapter when I go to Leh
2. Exchange the sim with friend's phone for making calls & give friend's phone number to family for incoming calls
3. Get my mobile completely charged when I stay in the hotel
4. Use new set of batteries in the mobile before the trip
5. Carry spare batteries during the trip

I'm not talking negative here amvj; but the point is, I hate (really hate to the core) when I see people talking on mobile phones when they drive/ride; They only think that "when the phone rings you pick it up" no matter where you are; they don't see the disasters behind it; at this rate they will also charge the phone carelessly in the motorcycle when riding causing it to fall down on the road & make more disasters.

If anyone does not use the mobile phone when driving/riding, I full respect them & my points are intended not to offend them. Other's pls excuse

But will there be any electrical shortage due to water ? How is this charger protected from water ?

Thoughtful i must say, but can we install a 12V standard cigarette lighter on any bike conveniently?

I have a CBZ Xtreme
