Mumbai to Leh (August) - Any takers?
I am not sure if this is the right forum to post this, but I couldnt think of anywhere else. I didnt post this in the Leh' 2009 thread because it would get lost somewhere...
So I am planning of riding from Mumbai to Leh in August and a couple of friends would join in from Delhi. I was planning of doing it solo, but I dont I have the guts to do that - since I got my first bike 15 days ago and I am not a seasoned rider. I hope there would some guys who would be interested. A confirmed answer would be good rather than "maybe" or "depends", so that I can plan accordingly.. Thanks

My unicorn too had power loss but easily took a pillion to leh. Second time I had K&N in it with a stock jet and it ran beautifully. Took rider and pillion both above 70kgs plus loads of luggage easily and also outgunned a superbly maintained and jetted for hills bullet standard with lighter rider/pillion on moor plains. Almost touched 100 there. If your bike is jetted rich on plains especially in the initail (pilots + airscrew) and midrange (mainjet?? or is it needle position?) than it will perform poorly on higher altitude. A lean bike on plains performs great in hills. cheers vishwas |
