I think you should just keep it as it is with the new handle bar also.

    @sreejith kp : The handle bar looks awesome, and I am very interested in doing it as well, but can't go with that color though, as mine is of green.
    My beast is also green..couldnt get a green one..so took this..anyway I have ordered ktm390 handguards..hope it will fit

I further negotiated and he agreed to give me a discount with a final price of 68K which includes RTO Registration, Insurance + Extended Warranty (complete 5 years service warranty). Do you think this is Lucrative now? I need to pay the cheque tomorrow and hopefully will get the Delivery of the Bike on 27th Feb, Thursday as it is Maha-Shivratri (considering it as a lucky day).

          Please do let me know if this sounds good.
          Hi, i enquired about the impulse today at their vashi service center and workshop, they are quoting 73K. i did try to tell them your example, that a 'friend' of mine bought it for 68k but they claim that they haven't sold a single impulse since dusshera last year. so if i can contact you i'll be able to bring the price down easily, so please do reply.

                          I think it would be looking great in those.

Is it something regarding clutch plate?? In normal city rides I switch gears up in 4k rpm..this issue is not there when going for long rides like when I switch gears up in 6k rpm..

                                I usually switch to 2 at 4500-5000 and 3 and 4 at 5500 and 5 at 6000+, If I change this (i.e shift at lower RPMs than this) I feel the lag.
