i really dont think its worth the money..looks a bit like a Elim

tanmoyghosal · 07-08-2004, 08:42 AM

looks like the enticer. If i have to spend that much I will take Eliminator 250

moron · 07-08-2004, 09:18 AM

alloy wheels wud have looked good.....overall 5/10

lovemax · 07-08-2004, 09:37 AM

Hey guys but dont u feel that vtwin packs the punch for power??
I feel v-twin makes a hell of difference for the bike to deliver what it has to....

B_David · 07-08-2004, 10:10 AM

Yes, it may not be worth the money.....that's because the manufacturing cost in foreign countries is high. If manufactured in india the cost could be well within 1 lac.

But it is far better than an enticer or elim...beyond comparison...dont forget its a V-twin.

Enticer is a piece of S**t.....may be its the smallest cruiser in the world.

lovemax · 07-08-2004, 10:18 AM

Enticer Seems to have found a lot of owners though ... Thug thug ThuG ...

[8D]
In India its the budget that goes besides the power Ha ha HA

I agree with you B_david

Looks good. Fit for the indian market, though me thinks, a smaller handle bar would make it look really cool. Price hmmm, if it is a CBU, then more than 2 lacs definite.
