    My two paisa.

    The problem is that am into online business so getting loan approved is quite a challenge..
    If i had to cancel from this dealership and go to the other, i need to redo the loan stuff from 1st..
    Its quite a headache..

    Also Repsol STD comes with MRF rubber and i will be upgrading the brake line and fluid after the 1st service.. so it will have decent stopping power compared to other STD variant.

    90% of my rides will be in city and speed of max 80.. so for me ABS is quite overkill.. It does come in handy at times..

      Go on whatever you have decided! No need to be confused between ABS & non-ABS. Both are good. All the best!

        Had I been in such environment, would have gone fabricating a paddock rather than racing blah blah blah bomb, exhaust, etc. No offense!

          That can be done anytime, only reason I don't is cause I use my bike daily, never had the use, but I thought I'll make a paddock once I get a bigger bike, wouldn't be ridding the bigger bike every day

            Only mod I want is a side mounted rocket launcher. For those fag bus drivers who terrorize other road users, and claim high BP and dizziness when they meet with an accident.

                If its rear then you can.. but front i doubt on it..

                Try to compare both pads before buying.. you can visit any KTM service center and ask them for a old Duke rear pads..

                Also i believe you can try NS front and rear pads on CBR..


                if you still facing issue with the initial bite, use a fine sandpaper and scrub the disc rotor two times and clean it with rubbing alcohol..

                  Guys is there any danger to the vehicle or the rr unit if we keep the engine idling for an hour to charge the battery?

                  I need to power a small fan using the battery during power cuts, since my latest house doesn't have an inverter yet. Thus the query.

                    No problem will raise due to this but this is not a good option. Wastes too much of fuel. If you are in critical need then you can do this.

                      Hey guys, I just came across a pretty sweet deal for a Ninja 300. My doubts are--->
                      1. Is it logical? Considering I'm already riding a CBR250RD on a daily basis and the Ninja won't be much of an upgrade.
                      2. Is it the right time? Cuz I don't think the KTM svc centres service Kawasakis now, post the Bajaj-Kawa breakup...
                      :D

                        depends upon the Price you are getting it for..

                        More over your wallet should be friendly enough to support you to spend on N300 :P

                        I heard that cost of ownership is high wen it comes to Ninja due to its spare/service cost.

                        Also parts are not readily available.

                          You could have gotten yourself an inverter if you'd spend the money you spent on making exhausts That being said, no though RR would be kinda hot, it won't cause any significant problems per se. It's just unwarranted wear and tear on the engine, idling for more than one hour and fuel. You could get a used 12v 6 or 2.5 Ah battery, get it for some 800 odd bucks and then use it for your needs and then recharge accordingly. You can recharge a sealed battery if you have a UPS.

                          Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
                          The girl said, 'NO!'


                          And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


                          THE END

                            No sir, exhaust and one bake was Deathwing. I am wondering how did you confuse us since he mentioned this in every alternate post of his. [emoji23]


                            I just need a couple fans for extended power cuts. It's not worth turning on the 2.8kva genset for just 200w requirements, two lights, 3 small portable 19-35w fans which I bought.

                            A normal UPS battery wouldn't have the juice to charge my phone and the fans so I bought an extra Amaron 12v9ah AGM bike battery. It charges a 5000mah phone 2.3 times before the battery voltage drops to 12.0v under load.


                            Until I get an inverter, this is gonna be the setup.

                              Well true that , it's a mixup, please keep in mind, exhaust is only for the track and incase my stock exhaust goes kaput or something, god forbid , but doesn't running your bike for power, drains out the battery real fast? One more thing a more powerful battery isn't good for the bike's electricals as it can't handle the load?

                                Ive heard services will still happen with pro biking , but its not advisable to go for a kwacker till Kawasaki gets their svc fixed n sorted , well r3 is a better option due to the cheapness of the spares compared to the n300 and the service centers, soo keep that in mind, n650 is a better upgrade for you if you want a kwacker, I'm sure you can get one for 3.5-5 lakhs in tip top condition.
