    Pushkar is a summer jacket without any liners , you can buy all wether with different liners in other brands and with little more money Better guards too.
    Mototorque has level 2 in reasonable price, Snaefell performance racing is also reasonable, then scala, rynox, solace etc etc.
    Mesh jacket with different liners.

    Congrats on booking the Interceptor. Don't even think about a leather jacket, they are not suitable for our country as it will get really hot and uncomfortable. Look at mesh jackets.

Is the BS6 version supposed to have different power figures? The salesperson in RE showroom told me that nothing changes except a catalytic converter?

    Sorry for going off topic mods.
    The mods here are chill, you don't get moderator warnings for such small issues, (which are not even issues in the first place) , unlike some other forum. Customizing according to need and preference is the way to go

I would do both, a customised motorcycle for city riding and an already loaded motorcycle for touring!

    Abhinav is going all crazy with his interceptor, he has the money as well as the passion. That bike is one hell of a looker. Just wait till he finishes up with his bike and then we can all implement some of the modifications as well [emoji28]
