    Quite expensive the bikes in Bangalore. I bought my 180 for 75k in Delhi.
    I got my Menace for 70K INR

    Its the lowest price it has ever sold for, I think. And, luckily that was the time when I took my bike. No such pre-planned intentions but it happened co-incidently

              Oh That's bad man !! Good to read u weren't hurt much. So wht stuff needs replacement on the bike? Yeah tyres are horrible. I always apply brakes as soon as I see water on the road, even if the roads are straight !! I'll be getting my tyres changed to MRF right before the monsoon !

                  hope you are fine now , but engine guard bent means it would have displaced the scoops on tank ,happened to me twice

                  • People keep complaining about the tyres...Why dont you guys go ahead and change them upfront rather than waiting for a mishap to happen and then blame it on the tyres. If not changing to other tyres, ride upto the limits of these tyres. IMO,the tyres on the 180 arent that bad for first 10k kms.

                        agree to your opinion tyres aren't that bad.. i was in under 60's wen a dog jumped in from nowhere and i din go hard on the brakes either.. hit rear brake first and then the front.. but it all happened so fast.. no time to react

                                A motorcycle functions entirely in accordance with the laws of reason, and a study of the art of motorcycle maintenance is really a miniature study of the art of rationality itself.
