Got round to reading all the SS runs on xBhp after going through Ananth's near-1600 on the Ninja
![]() Contrary to what most people would conclude, I'd imagine the SS to be more demanding on a litre-class whomper like the 'One when compared to a run on a quarter-litre Ceeber/Ninja or even the N650R. Not sure if that's the case though ![]() Anyways, I digress.. Congrats on the SS man. Both Akhil and you seem to be making it a habit of caning (metaphorically) the 'One through slush, gravel and anything that the bharat-sarkar-approved roads can possibly come up with ![]() The bit about improving your physical fitness should be highlighted in bold such that unfit 20-something arses such as moi get into shape purely for the sake of enjoying any stint on the saddle to the fullest. Cheers !

![]() I completely agree that doing an SS on litre-class motorcycle is tough than on a N250 or 650 or the CBR 250. It(R1)is built to put faster laps on a racetrack not push them for endurance rides on highways. Every thing about the CBR250 or the N650 aids touring - Relaxed posture - Decent to good fuel range - Provision to mount luggage(saddlebags) - No need to hunt for premium fuel etc Having said that fitness plays a vital role during such attempts. Ex: is that a rider is trained differently to complete a 'Suzuka 8 hours endurance race' than an WSBK rider even though they share the motorcycles built on the same platform.
