  • Help - Bought RE 350std.

    Hi fellas, i need an advice from all of you that i bought brand new bull std.. I want to put alloys wheels in it so my question is should i go ahead and put alloys in it or should i wait for completing 3000 kms (for running in period) and then put alloys ?

    My Second question is, i would like to change the handle bar and i am thinking about 2 handle bars

    a) Electra handle bar

    b) RD 350 Handle bar

    As i am not a tall guy and i will drive my bull mostly in delhi (in city) and on weekend semi - long trips and some occasional very long trips(to himachal or UK). so which of the above mentioned bars is more comfortable?

    My third question is , Does Teflon coating make any difference or what can i do to keep my bull shining like a brand new 1 even after 1-2 years?

    looking forward for your help..

    Regards,

    Manpreet

      First of all, congos for your bull

      [1] About the alloys, I would suggest don't put them now or later, spoke wheels are more durable and easy to maintain. If you go for alloys there are chances to break during the rides, a bit crack can puncture your tires etc, not a cheap pair to buy etc.

      So, overall a NO from me for alloys!

      [2] About the handle bar, Electra is the best, in terms of comfort and handling.

      [3] Teflon - no need, it can only handle just small scratches. I've done that on my bike and if you keep it clean and polish your bike regularly it would shine as brand new

      Hope this helps!
