    Yes sounds good, if some large amount of people send a mail chain to concern Dept then there could be possibility of taking actions by those officials..
    But there will be thousands of roads/bumps like this all over the nation.. gathering people for areawise is a not-so-easy thing it seems

      I think statewise we can make a mail to State road transport official to look upon this improper formation of bumps and its impact on riders.. and urge them to make a supervision on all roads over state and make required step on it , prioritizing its state capital city first.. is that a fine idea?

        No just twist the throttle ,no restrictions !
        BTW ,just stick around 5-7K RPMs for the best economy and the engines optimum performance lies around that!!!
        *Anything beyond that will be stressing the engine and a drop in FE .


        I hope 70 kmph @4K RPM is impossible for HORNET as [MENTION=100540]aishwary23[/MENTION] is claiming !! Isn't it??


        Cheers,
        Ride safe.

          Yes, in 4k 55 to 58kmph is possible in 5th gear.
          In hornet 70kmph comes in around 5.1k rpm
          80kmph = 6k rpm
          90kmph= 7k rpm
          100kmph=8k rpm.

            Anyone here who owns the 2018 Matte Green Hornet? Can you post some pictures of it? That color variant isn't available here yet (only orange, yellow, blue and red) as the demand isn't much for it. I would like to show my old brother how it looks, so it'd be a real help if someone posts it.

              Yeah green and orange colors look more sporty than red,blue indeed.

              It might be out of stock,just book one or get it from nearby ASCs.

                Has any one retro fitted bi-xenon projector in the headlamp assembly?
                One of my friend is planning to install such kind of projector with hid from reputed brand. Gone through Amazon & Ali express as well but its flooded with cheap quality chinese ones. Click image for larger version Name: IMG_6557.JPG Views: 1 Size: 17.4 KB ID: 1963587

                  Feeling anger over this officials who involved in maintenance of road...
                  I also faced similar situation. That too, double speed breakers across crossing road.
                  I was only at 40-50. I hit the first breaker without noticing. Before, I could balance I hit the second one.
                  I managed to balanced as it was not high speed. But even on 50, one can easily get hurt.


                  A 76-year-old businessman and avid biker from Nepeansea Road, died in a crash as his sports bike hit an unmarked speed-breaker on the old Pune highway.

                  See this: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/...w/62990101.cms

                  To report, you can raise complaint on state transport grievance portal and central ministry portal. Few people get answers. Let's hope situation will improve.

                      Considering very low price of graphics, I guess around Inr. 200 only.
                      I have 1st generation Perl-Siren-Blue color, almost black. Should I add these graphics?

                          Just wrap it with chrome blue wrap, it'll look dope.

                                Unicorn 160 was nearly the same (though I suspect that the RPMs you mentioned are slightly off) only thing it never crossed 118 (IIRC) for me. Hornet and unicorn/xblade have different gearing.
