    Also i have got my LS2..its so perfect one. Uploading some pics here. Didn't get a model with red and black combo, so all black n grey is there.
    No bro it's just you with the GT650R that is getting the rear tyre wobbley.

      • @vikyk : the vobbling is, I think something u are only facing !!! get in touch with the engineer to get it fixed, I turned this bike at almost 95kmph on Nice road, but no wobbling whatsoever. Braking does make a sound probably coz of the brake pads but no wobbling !!! nice helmet bro but I too agree with you Red Black combo would have been nicer !!!

        @Brat : Thanks !!!

        @Nagoo : agree buddy, the shoes doesnt go well !!! I know & planning to get a good AXO or alpine pair... I got DSG gloves, but lost it god knows where !!! so gotta get a new pair of that as well

        @r13nick : Thanks budy !!!

        @Mel : Even I think Red/black & Red are the highest selling colors !!!

        @Patty : Thanks bro !!!

          I am new to thread but I have been reading this from a couple of weeks, as you have mentioned that you are getting a loan, could you give some more details about it, coz I desperatly wanna get this bike, If you can tell me which bank loan and whats the downpayment ammount I would really appreciate.
          I am getting my loan from bank of India. The RoI is ~13.5% as far as I remember. But now a days RoI is changing so fast that you don't know what it would be tomorrow. Thanks RBI.

          You can check the following link

          Bank of India

          I checked with HDFC also, it seems there personal loan is cheaper than the 2-wheeler loan. And rates for Personal loan were ~ 14.5%.

          BoI is ready to fund 90% of the on road cost. But it depends case to case,so you may have to meet the loan officer to understand the RoI and loan amount etc. Being a Sarkari bank, it may not be the quickest. However in my case they did exceptionally well and they have promised to handover the cheque to me tomorrow ... waiting for the D-Day...

          Actually, I am also thinking of getting the dedicated number plate only. Don't want to have any issues with traffic police.

          BTW, why don't bike manufacturers consider the aesthetic wrt this particular item... I believe the front licence/registration plate must be mandatory worldwide.. though while browsing through some galleries on web forums, I have seen a very few bikes with front licence plate ??

          I know mittal,how impatient the waiting period can be.
          The bike is now ready with the dealer. Today he is closed, tomorrow I should be making the remaining payment . Hopefully, I should get my bike in another 2-3 days...

                  a quick update. Just now got a call from BoI branch Manager. She told that Zonal office is saying a minimum of 20% margin money => 80% funding. I will visit the bank tomorrow to settle this. But I had already planned for 20% down payment. :-) ..Can't wait anymore ..hehehe

                        Yeah but so limited options were there. And i liked it because of its fitting method inside with button.

                                Go for bionic for comfort riding .. as ur legs will be folded in race position .. non bionic will not bend according to ur leg and more over the straps behind the guards will irritate ur leg where the leg will get folded [read as leg joints]
                                fox-raptor u will get for less than 2K .. and cramster for 1.6k
