Red Hot redefined - Gladiator Type SS in new color

New Delhi, 16th March, 2009: Riding the wave of sports biking and adding more zing to its portfolio, India Yamaha Motor Pvt. Ltd has introduced Gladiator Type SS (Sports & Stylish) in red color now. Packed with the advantages of 4-stroke, 125 cc, 11 PS, 5-speed bike; the Stylish and Sporty Gladiator is a unique combination of sports biking and style.
Yamaha’s race-bred technology enhances the convenience in riding, agile cornering and precise braking like no other bike can. Added to this, the Gladiator has been designed for substantial and overall improvement in running performance, overall sporty design and product reliability with added features and advantages of practical functionality of commuting bikes, such as fuel economy and cost effectiveness.
The Gladiator showcases benchmark 125cc styling, refinement and a free-revving 11 bhp engine with Yamaha Throttle Position Sensor (YTPS) that delivers stupendous standing acceleration. 5 speed gearbox allows the rider to make the most of a wide power band to experience excellent performance in both around-town and high-speed riding. With the Aerodynamic racy under-cowl, Gladiator is ergonomically designed. Sporty Tachometer, Lowered front cowl, Lightweight Aluminum wheels and powered front Disc Brakes gives it a dynamic yet sophisticated demeanor.
The Gladiator Type SS is priced at Rs 46,600 (ex-showroom, All India)
With the Yamaha signature all over, the Gladiator is an extremely well built, stylish and promises to be the best bike in its class.

Even the 125 cc TVS Flame and the Honda Stunner mimics the look of a bigger category bike

It is not about the looks with the Gladiator... it is about the ride...

Even I didn't like the Red colour Gladi SS. I felt that the other colours look much better. But please don't compare it to the Laal Salaam! it would need a decade of sticker upgrades to come close to the Laas Salaam!
