        The bolds are calculating to 6 inches and for a saddle its too much man. The main change is the seat design not the length.

        • [QUOTE=krrishi;850142]Nice pics there vishnu, you made me go back to kerala briefly,my native,looking at the issues going on over there i hope God still treats it like his own country & has not migrated.
          Nevertheless i am inspired to ride, to ride to the unknown in search of peace,of the mind & of the heart & this inspiration comes from all my fellow RTRians present here & ofcourse the pics of the beast.

          it still is gods own country except some parts where god himself decided to rent it out to the devil himself :P

                      I got into xbhp only after my bike's odo was 9k . I am subscribed to the thread, but most times I end up failing to check it frequently

                      Coming week? No way I will be there. Bit busy with exams

                      And yes, there is a group [not xbhp related, just a randomn group] of 4 RTRians inc me. We had gone 1.5 months ago to kanyakumari.

                        I dont know where Srinagar main road is.

                        Meghdhoot SVC is near the HALASURU metro station.

                        Zen Shakti is inside Rajarajeswari Nagar.

                            mine too... rear brake seems to be having a lot more freeplay now. and there is a squeaking sound (loud enough not to be ignored) seems the front pad is hugging the disc even without applying the brake. i think its either that or the cone setting gotta show her to the SVC tom [odo >1500 Km]
