@thread starter. Dont go beyond this post to decide...this is the crux of the entire matter... Quote:
The new one is ZMR... Also in R15 you will feel the torgue once 50% of the RPM has been done for every gear.... so on higher speeds its marvelous bike to ride, perfect handling, breaking, technology.... My vote for the R15 Pulsar 220 ...brute power...but mechanic friendly bike if not maintained properly ( mechanic friendly means will make friends with mechanic  )ZMR latest techology ZMA-R the fuss free bike (personal experience)

The Daytona kit is a over rated over priced "performance" kit.... plus it will make your bike illegal on roads...

^^ Daytona kit is not street legal, and i think you'll also be losing warrenty.
Cost : Engine Kit is Rs. 31,000 Body kit is Rs. 20,000 So for 50k you'll be getting better top end performance and will not (legally) be able to ride on the streets... I would not go for it, c'mon man, instead of 1.6 lac for the R15 plus Daytona Kit, i would take a lac loan and buy the Ninja!! Don't get me wrong i love my R15, but there it is... Cheers, Shr. |

the R15 tyres have excellent grip and i doubt whether the frame supports the FZ16 tyre as i heard from someone the gap between the tyre and swing arm is hardly 1 or 2 cms

2) Yes, comparatively costly, but not too much. 3) Never ever do that!! Stock is the best, ride it and take a curve to understand why , bigger is not always better right? The R15 is an enthusiast’s bike. If you are a bike enthusiast, go for it, enuf said!! Cheers, Shr. Last edited by Shreyas82; 02-24-2010 at 06:47 PM. |
