    i think some of them were 130 secton tyres and none of them had any section of chain cover removed/cutted...

    although had lots of experience of driving .. so understood the concept of gears n all ..
    had one crash .. not major, skidded on gravel .. but learnt from it ... n gradually learnt ... majorly helped by following a frnd of mine who had lots more experience than me .. just followed him, as he also had a thing for riding fast .. n learnt the timing to brake n the line to take ..
    since then .. uptil 17000kms .. dint have a fall ... until an a!@hole slammed his brakes moving at 90+.. rgt in front of me widout any signal or any reason .. suffered a broken shoulder .. :P ..

    Moral of the loooong story : Learn as much as possible .. but never lose faith in urself .. coz i believe .. that u can never drive or ride with tension on your mind .. let things flow .. n trust ur instincts ...rest toh jaako raakhe saaiyaan.. maar sake na koi
    no i was not encouraging him but trying to make him more cautious

            its not visible from outside .. its just a strip of the cover is cut out from the inside ... u cant see it from either side ... u really need to look closely and peek into it, to see the removed portion ....

            • This should be in the Helmets thread! But anyways, I'm using the Ninja 2G&liked it better than the 3G because of its rubber lining underneath. I have posted a review with pics etc.also, please look here: http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/universa...tml#post193388
              If you like flip-ups you can try the Studds Ninja 2G/3G, they would overshoot your budget by about 200 Rs. Vega Boolean will be around Rs.1800 or so.
              If you are looking for a good full face, you can try the Studds Rhyno (Rs.1300 odd), or Vega Dominator/Studds Bravo at a lower price of Rs.800 odd Rs.

                            finding the neutral is not as difficult if the engine is off.

                                I guess this is common in most of the bikes.. it is difficult in my bike also but the funda is that you should move the bike front a bit by releasing the clutch& depress back & then immediately pull the lever back up to neutral. works for me..

                                I hope I am able to convey what I wanted to
