Hello Guys!!

I was thinking of buying a Honda 800cc V-4. I wanted to know if its a good choice to buy. Also what other good options do i have for it? Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki?

Also, I was offered another bike Honda 600cc from someone who has not been in India for the past 5 years. So, the bike has not been started for the past 5 years. What would have to be done to start the bike and make it rideable?

If i buy one of the two bikes, does anyone know a garage in pune/mumbai who is a good mechanic in these bikes and also not a cheater. The mechanic should also be cheap as in not implementing a lot of bill for small works...

One of my other concerns would be the fuel for the bike. I believe there are only two fuelling stations selling fuel for superbikes, i would like to know if there are more in Pune.

A little advice would be much helpful.

Thank You.

The 800cc v4 would be the honda vfr a very well reputed sports touring machine. The 600cc honda would at best be a 2003 cbr600rr or a cbr600f4i, both really great supersports bikes, although if I were you I'd want the vfr just coz the 600 hasnt been run in soo long.

Looks at your requirements, do you want to tour or do you want a track 600?

I think you should have a word with a mechanic for getting a sleeping bike up and running after 5 years...
dont worry about fuel... I have been running fireblade with extra premium without much problem.

Thank You Sunilg for approving my query...

Well, yes that is correct, the 800 is vfr and honda is 600rr. Well, i wanna track bike... so was really looking forward to it.

Alright, ill do so..

So, fueling is not a question now. The only two things are 1) mechanic and 2)the cost of running a 5yr standing bike....

Regarding the mechanic, there are a few around Pune. There is Fareez in Salunkhe Vihar, Anwar on SB road & the best (& probably most reliable) is the guy off MG road, don't remember the name, I think it is Dream Bikes. You can visit the mechs & ask them regarding the cost involved.
