    • Any solutions for front mud gaurd?

      Any owners have found any solutions for tackling the splash from front wheel? I love this bike, but as I want to use both for commuting and playing, I would need a front splash guard at least a short one, something like the p200ns has for rear wheel. any body ? any ideas? any tries?
      Its crime to ride a car alone, so I ride bike :).

                      the max load that can be carried on the impulse is 120 kg ( rider+passenger ) anything more will have some negative effect. now you have to decide whether to carry more weight or not

                            • Just got home with the tiny 150 and its a hoot to ride !

                              Got an array of suspension & engine mods in mind but trying to acomplish them without importing much.





                              These turn signals have to go, way to wide for my liking



                              The quality is pretty ok but seems like it was assembled in a hurry. Drain pipe under the tank from the fuel filler cap was hanging & not connected. Engine mounts were not torqued tight. The side cover screws were super tight :roll eyes:! Not bothered to such an extent as I am pulling the bike apart in a few days, but for people planning to purchase one, do a thorough check before you take delivery of one.

                              • in the second picture.... the bike in the background. is it the yezdi ?
                                couldn't make it out since only the rear tyre and the left silencer is visible in the picture.

                                anyways congrats for your new purchase
