      Till date, what is the maximum number of Kms you've done in one day?

                  CBR250R is what I would suggest. After buying please spend some time learning about the bike and how to resolve minor issues.
                  But if you plan to do the ride right after buying a bike then go for a Pulsar 220 as you already have experience with a pulsar before.

                    Back to your original question on GQ; buy a bike if you want to, but not specifically for GQ; you're not going to GQ everyday!!!

                    Any vehicle that is capable of running about 7000 Kms should be able to do GQ comfortably; to me its more of the rider than the ride; since you've done SS & BB, there should be nothing stopping you to do GQ.

                    You'll be able to do about 600 Kms everyday easily & keep aside about 11-12 days & this is all you need. Not a new bike!!! Ofcourse a reliable bike.

                      ya correct
                      but do u think a pulsar can do 120+ through out the day for 4 day + duration
                      still not sure cos no sponsorship till date
                      have asked my college so lets see.....

                      ya talking about minor issues
                      really thanks
                      it never came into my mind

                      though i own a pulsar till date i haven't found a good mechanic who is actually going to listen to you and understand what u want


                      if getting the running in 2 days with 2 servicing
                      and one servicing there after
                      thn 3rd or 4th day the bike will be ready for the ride.........................?

                            Yikes!!! I missed that point

                            If you're poorest among the poor, then opt for CBR 250R; standard will be Ninja 250R & anything above it is sure to succeed.
