        if you are visiting chidambaram, saradha ram hotel or akshaya hotel are the best place to stay, boarding lodges are there but it won't be that good.
        Economy class lodges are ameen and naveen lodge and one more is there near busstand,

        Try to taste the moorthy cafe parrota or laapa there.

        Chidambaram is known for gold covering jwellery

        Don't forget to visit the pitchavaram mangrove forest, and if time allows visit annamalai university one of the biggest (in size) and famous (now infamous) university.
        Madhu even i recommend saradha ram in chidambaram ..He was also want to visit my town which is just 55km away from that place ..But he afraid of local language .....We both know many of Foreigners Visiting this places without much problem in language .....

            Hey even i have seen vertigo...it looks cool...one doubt though, how can you feel grip of a tire on road by merely touching it?
            the logic is our skin is very different from the material of road etc., also when we ride a bike there is certain amount of load on tire which also contributes to traction. could you kindly explain if there's any specific method which you have used to test the grip of a tire without fitting it on bike? i mean, using some kind of material or something...

            • am in confused...

              Hi.. am new in this group....

              my name is Benjamin Sebastian
              am from Kerala..
              21-age

              am planing to buy a new bike... but don't know which one i choose
              actually am little fatty too ...

              i like Suzuki gs150r
              and i book that bike last month for BLACK color
              but still now i didn't get my bike... because of color...
              today i got a call from suzuki showroom

              he said that orange color is available...
              there is no other color
              but i love black

              friends...... please please help me...
              what is ur opinion about orange color ?

              My requirements are as follows:
              1) Comfort: I will be riding the bike mostly alone, but the pillion rider should also be in a very comfortable position. Especially hopping on and off should be easy.

              2) Fuel Efficiency: Anything around 50 would do.

              3) Riding conditions: Purely city driving. Rarely on highway runs

              4) Ownership cost: The cost of spares, services and overall A.S.S. should be good enough.

              5) Price: Max 70-75

              my friends told me to take P180
              what should i do....?

              need your suggestion...
              i need to decide before 10 june...

                I guess you can take the orange one, even the orange one is actually orange/black.
                and the orange in newer versions is mostly red, so it doesnt have a faded look either.
                And since you're 21 i guess its ok to go for a colour that stands out instead of taking black which is very common in all bikes.

                P180 if you want power and dont care about mileage, and ofcourse, if you dont mind being another brick in the wall (with every other bike being pulsar)
                GS150 if you want mileage, looks, and enough power for city/highway (may be not for race tracks though)

                • feel better

                  Thanks thanks for quick reply bro...

                  yeah .... i have little dout about fade problem....

                  and what abt the milage...?
                  and i think u r happy with your GS..

                  vat about spare parts availability ...?
                  and power of head light...?

                  To be frank... i just fall in love with GS150r
                  but only problem am facing now is about the color

                    1) Comfort: I will be riding the bike mostly alone, but the pillion rider should also be in a very comfortable position. Especially hopping on and off should be easy.

                    personal opinion: GS150R is best in this specific price / cc range

                    2) Fuel Efficiency: Anything around 50 would do.

                    what ever the cc / make / type of bike you use the word mileage fully depends up on how you handle it

                    in another word you can either tune a bike towards mileage or pure performance but not both at a time

                    if i drive alone the mile is no lesser than 50 kmpl, but with a heavy pillon and kid that too on bad bangalore roads with using 1 ltr petrol for more than 5 days (average of 10 or 12 kms a day that too not contunual all with 2 or 5 kms trips i am getting 45 kmpl


                    3) Riding conditions: Purely city driving. Rarely on highway runs

                    this is not be a problem

                    4) Ownership cost: The cost of spares, services and overall A.S.S. should be good enough.

                    quality spares wont come at low price but low price components can be fixed in to the bike (example you can add a local made indicator bulb in stead of the philips or osram one

                    5) Price: Max 70-75

                    my friends told me to take P180
                    what should i do....?

                    at last its you the one who pays and uses, so decide and go and select the one that suits you

                    p180 is so called performance bike but its no better than A180 in performance, and it wont satisfy your mileage and the requirement state by you on the above 4 questions



                    need your suggestion...
                    i need to decide before 10 june...
                    am using black color but i like the new GS (version march 2010 GS) orange as it looks nice in black and orange combination

                    power of head light is good in pure dark and okay with the long drive but only problem is the city lights will overshadow the headlight falling area in dim mode as it covers wide area instead of focusing on a particular place,

                    for many mere change in head lamp (by using either osram or philips ) fixed the issue

                    answers are in bold

                    i have friends who still maintains the LML Adrino and vespa in good condition
                    life and performance of a bike relies on how we maintain it.

                      hmmm....

                      so from you both... i think ,.... orange is not so BAD...

                      but as i said na i have a little bit doubt about fading of color..

                      k.. but you guys get millage around....?

                      and for city ride... it can controll na...?

                        k.. but you guys get millage around....?

                        to be more clear with close to or above 150 kg human weight on a bike with more than 140 kg weight it gives me 44 or 45 kmpl local


                        and for city ride... it can controll na...?

                        city ride the weight of the bike helps in controling the bike well moreover the same weight of the bike makes you feel bad before ataining momuntum (when starting or till attending the 10 kmpl speed (at least for me) )

                        one last line 75% it depends on the rider i mean how you judge and control it

                                I just listed few of the dealers name that I know

                                I beleve Rajkumar road suzuki is a core dealer only dealer in bangalore to sell suzuki premium (i-e hayabusa, GSXR, etc...) Bikes.

                                I never serviced there, earlier I used to service at millers road. The servicing is okay their.

                                Two get feedback on dr.rajkumar road ask our fellow Gspian ManuBhat
                                He bought and servicing at Dr.Rajkumar road.

                                And haven't read any bad comment about them on our thread.


                                As of now am happy with servicing from a known local mechanic.
