Hey hey hey people....

I'm back...

@satyam.. thanks for the advice.. but the noise is still there, got it checked twice after the first service but the guy said it's normal and there is no issue with the engine.... He said it is cause of the chain that connects the rear tire and tightened the chain... After that the noise wasn't there for a day but it's there again now... so let me know if anything can be done or is it simple noise???

Now coming to the BikeXperience!!!!

Got the first service done for my Devil.... the ride is amazingly awesome..

Here's the short story on the first ride and experience with the ZMR...

The day i got her out of the Showroom.... The feel was amazing... i mean, you don't feel you are riding a normal Indian Bike.... You actually get the feel of a Sports bike... The console is perfect and the best that can be offered by any Indian bike manufacturer...

The feel and the smoothness on the road is perfect... But in Gurgaon roads.... it can't even go above 60.... (... but it's fine...

The best thing is when people actually turn around when they see the bike pass by.... I mean you get that feel only on a SBK and when i ride my ZMR .... it gives you that feel only..

Coming to the highway experience... After the first service done.... have crossed 100kph on the highway... The grip on the road and the way it goes Zip Zap zoom on the highway is just amazing...
Basically, HH has worked allot on the handling and the designing.. Till now i have touched 111kph on the highway... on NH-8..

"Head-turner tourer" is one word that describes it... It is the best bike for a touring...

Till now i haven't done any mods on the bike as i feel it's completely fine except the rear tyre....
One more thing... can anyone tell me if the spares are available in Delhi or not... as the left rear-view mirror broke when a guy hit her from behind while she was parked... The guy was decent enough to admit his mistake and give me 200 bucks for the mirror to get a new set..

Unfortunately, i can't find it here in Gurgaon as the spare parts aren't available here... Haven't looked in Delhi till now as i couldn't get time cause of my job routine...

Anyone who can let me know where i can find the spare parts for the bike then let me know please... it'll be a great help...

On last thing... i don't know how to upload pics in a thread as this is my first thread that i've started in my life... :P

So if anyone can let me know how to add pics to the thread so that i can upload my Devil's pics....

log Out....!!!!!!

Question P220 worth the buy?? or Zma R???

guys read all ur reviews...

my question is nearly the same....
shud i go in for Karizma R or P 220F....i have been using pulsar 150 Dtsi UG2 since well over 5 years now.....i knw the extreme reliable engine of karizma R, but as of now..As the bike is in the market for nearly 8 years, is there a possibility
of the bike being phased out?? say in a couple of years??

m spending well around 83 grands So wanna make sure that with the machine i buy, i shudnt feel in two years that its old now,(as in old model)
or its production being stopped....

I want a bike thats hassle free and problem free for 5-6 years or more.....
a decent mileage is as usual, everybody's demand
had been to book karizma R, but bookings r closed all over aurangabad side (maharashtra) and then wen i had been to Bajaj Pro Biking showroom,
found the fully loaded pulsar 220F very very tempting....!
havent slept since three days, still thinking wat shud i go for...

all pulsar owners, please clear my doubts whether P220 is Absolutely worth investing or not....some say abt engine reliability and stuf....please wanna hear about the bike from a pulsar 220 owner....!!!


guys please help me get some sleep!!!
