      ...still used by many police men in India, including the famous 27/11 rife mishap in shivaji terminus where rifles got jammed. Even karnataka police used Lee Enfield .303 calibre rifles.

                        Here's my list of favorites and them absoulute abominations as names for Motorcysles:

                        Best:
                        Yamaha RX series
                        Yamaha RD 350 (Racing Derieved)
                        Yamaha FZS
                        Royal Enfield Bullet
                        Royal Enfiled Thunderbird (Though copied from ford it's a killer name for a bike)
                        Shogun
                        Apache

                        Worst:
                        Glamour

                            Surprizing to see 'Hero Puch' not in anybody's worst names list.

                            'Hero Puch' is the worst name and takes the crown in worst names list.
                            HH Karizma (Current) || CBF Stunner PGM-FI || Honda CB Unicorn Dazzler
                            Honda Aviator || Kinetic Flyte || Kinetic Blaze || HH Splendor

                                i guess pulsar name is asssociated with pulse ....and unicorn ..means a horse with a single straight spiraled horn...this may be associated with constellations but unicorn is alrgely refered to the horse .
