    That's good. Human visibility is maximum between white and yellow (sunlight colour). Btw, found this from the company websites:
    Philips 60/55: 1650 lumens (~brightness)
    Osram night breaker 60/55: 1650
    Philips extreme 60/55: 1850

    But comes nowhere near my Hella 100/90W (2900 lumens)

            atlast at 6PM when there was no pending bike,NS was opened and Revved like crazy to make Fan work.Which was horryfying to say the least. On one side they advocate dont revv bike above 50kmphr for first 2K kms and they themselves revv bike like crazy to test the fan. Fan didnt moved at all, after 4-5 minutes of revving hard coolant splattered all over the floor from overflow pipe or something and sucker had to let go of the throttle. was just thinking what if bike gets damaged in this case? Cooling is obviously not working and bike is stationary so no Air Cooling either.There got to be a more educated way to test Whether fan works or not.

            also Service representative told me the fan will kick in at 200 Degree celsius. i thought he was joking, but he told this with straight face . it beleive he got his degree celsius and farehenheit units mixed up or something.even water boils and evaporate at 100 degree so 200 degree seem like too high temp for fan to kick in and this guy seemed like only guy with experience among all the guys over there.present status is bike standing at Service centre as they are waiting for some sensor from their other service centre in panchkula. hope bike will be fixed tomorrow and fan starts to move. i dont want to see Service centre people's annonying faces for next 5k kms
            Terrific to see your bike given it's a new model, sorry about it. I thought this swaying to left was fixed with recent batches, as it was reported by many in our forums.

            In my case, I suspected about the fan operation when I took delivery. So I asked them if there could be a way to test it, svc guy said, you could rev a bit for some duration and make the engine hot and let the fan kick in. But I insisted not to do. After 1st service, one hot day under more than 5 minutes of idle the fan started automatically. Generally the bike engine gets very hot if left idle for more than 5\6 minutes (which is not good to do), but that will help you check the scenario. Also, unless you get the warning, this is nothing to be worried. But it's a catch 22 situation, if sensor's or indicators don't work, we might end up overheating the engine.

            Most of the SVC guys are either uneducated or not taught about 200ns bike design and architecture. In mycase, the guy didnt even know how to change the clock setting , funny thing.

            After having ridden ns, p220 riding posture seemed very small and puny. It's all the ride height.

            2.5 Inches.. How???

              Bottom mounting of monoshock was modified. In the pic, the red dot was the original mounting height of the bolt

                  Is there anyway to reduce the seat height?

                    Seat height alone can't be reduced without a major mod to the rear end

                      Seat height is perfect for me even I can touch my both foots from pillion seat too. Problem is for my dad who can touch only the tip of the fingers that to only of one leg due to which they are inclined towards Gixxer.

                          Got the same problem with my 5'2" wife, so did it out of necessity. But I am delighted now. Stability has improved a good deal!
