            • Guys...got a mail from Yamaha Motors India ...this morning...
              They are doing a survey about their bikes....

              I guess this is the time you can mention about the problems you were facing under Gladiator.


              Customer satisfaction Of Yamaha bikers ?
              The Fast and the Curious kind!!!

              Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.

              • I too received a mail from Yamaha India to the same effect. Gave an honest feedback of what I thought was wrong about the bike. Let's hope Yamaha takes it in positive light (which I know they will ) and give us a more improved Gladiator.

                • Yup... Got a mail too... A good initiative by Yamaha... Hope we see good improvements in the near future...

                  • Ok, Nightwing, Prashanth, curious to know what feedback did you guys supply. I haven't answered the survey yet. BTW, There was a feedback session 2 months after RS/SS was launched. Sometime in May last year. I was there at the Oberoi, MG Road. Mr Kurt Matsuda, Mr. Sanjay Tripathi themselves were present & eliciting the feedback. I dont recall what I said. Was a noob then . (to a lesser extent now , thanks to xBhp). But then everyone else there (there were 12 -15 Gladi customers I guess), barring two, were providing lame feedback. BTW most of them got the Gladi after reading favorable reviews from Shutmouth.com .

                    @Prashanth, nice lid. Studds Rhyno? how's the fit n finish.

                      Just that some reliability issues need to be fixed like the electrical issues that crop up sometimes. Also mentioned that they should look into improving the low end grunt.

                      • ^^Even i said the same... I also added about the quality of service at SC's... Because i have noticed that they dont do everything in the manual... Which i believe they should if it is specified... I also congratulated them on making a good bike in the Gladiator SS...

                        @TomSawyer: No, dint buy the Studds Rhyno... Its a really nice helmet... Found out that it used to come under the name of vemar or something before... But for me it was a lil uncomfortable near the ears... So i bought the MPA-AGV... Very nice helmet... Good padding...

                          Mine is giving around 42 for most of the time. I don't worry much about it as its a feature of any Yamaha bike

                              • Thought of sharing this article with the performance junkies here. Read it a long time back and remembered that Joel was talking about it somewhere.
