  • This is my most recent attempt at Leaning the P220!

    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

            • I do not have those pictures, but today Ken da's knee touched down. Pictures will be posted by him, soon, I guess.

              He touched down today, finally. It was nice to hear the scraping sound of the knee guard that he was wearing. He did it on the P-220, on the P-200 and almost on the Hero Honda Hunk too!

              Waiting for the pictures, and perhaps a lesson or two about how he did it, and about how to go about it. It will be nice to get some pointers as to how to go about the whole 'knee down' thing.

                          • Some awesome leans there.....


                            Certainly bajaj has come leaps and bounds from the "classic" days in terms of handling....
                            I feel scary sometimes when i hit a turn at 80kmpl........Its at that instant the bike just fails to turn................NO MATTER WAT...........

                            But dtsi feels so much better and confident at corners...compared to erlier pulsars...

                            I just love Unicorns,Dios,R15s cornering......

                            Goosh these japs are masters at handling and cornering......

                            • Just a note - scraping your knees does not necessarily mean that you are going any faster. Good body posuture man, keep it up.
