Parents - Beta shaadi kar lo..
Beta - Na.. Na..
Parents - Ladki waale de rahe hain.. R1 from Yamaha..
Beta - Phir to Haan.. Haan..

Thank you.

Yeah.. it's kinda hard to control to the urge and desperation when this beauty is seducing you to make the move..

That means even if you apply only Front Brakes the rear Breaks would be automatically applied..? And is it true Vice Versa too..?

They dont have any other colours in india yet. They might import new colours later.... no idea.

The front brakes do not get applied when rear is applied. In fact i have not yet felt the rear ones getting applied when only the front is applied, as i have not tried it yet.(you will agree that trying only front brakes, that too on a superbike can be a little bit scary

). All of that is still in theory from the honda engineers....
But whatever the case maybe, the brakes of the bike are awesome and they give you alot of confidence...

What is the running in method prescribed for this bike by Honda in the manual?

fireblah · 05-16-2009, 01:38 PM

Honda has written a single sentence for run-in (breaking in) in their manual. They have just mentioned to take care of bike for the initial stage and not ride at high speeds. Thats all

In that case don't go over 6000 rpm in any gear for the 1st 1000 kms. Have they told you when the 1st service is due?

fireblah · 05-16-2009, 02:28 PM

yes, first service at 1000 kms. honda will send engineer from delhi for that.

Hello,
I did not mention this before, but before we got the delivery of the bike, Honda gave us (bro and me) two days training on safety and techniques involved when riding. They give this training to any customer of theirs who wants to get it, but for customers who are buying super bikes, they highly recommend it.
It was very helpful and fun, and apart from that the effort honda is making is very commendable. The training included practical and theory and it had SAFETY first always.
I just respect Honda so much after my experience. Speaking to their engineers and trainers who have undergone extensive training themselves in places like japan/australia/singapore, i found out that Honda has always stood up for safety first and had made many initiatives in this direction.
My trainer, Mr. Harpreet Singh was rightly saying that in India, no one is trained for riding a two wheeler, which is right

. kids just pick up their dad's/friend's bike and hit the street !
Well just wanted to share my experience and hope there is more awareness about safety in India.
Here are some of the pictures taken during the training. The bike used was CB 400... amazing bike that one too ...

They have a simulator for gauging how safely you ride on roads, and react to real life situations etc etc.

India has a very high percentage of deaths due to road accidents and its rising !

Finally I was awarded a certificate and a medal of honor from Mr Harpreet Singh (my trainer who was very patient and kind to me

)of Honda

for being a safe rider
