@Chichane: Congrats dude,so you are going strong with TVS eh...

**ripper** · 07-23-2009, 10:56 PM

Congratulations for your new ride. I must say the white looks killer in real, never liked the white showed in the ad, maybe because its a lil dull. Happy riding!

Surprise, guys!!

Today morning when i reached my office, to my dismay i found the gates closed and police being deployed outside.There was some strike by union(i work in a semi-govt office).The agitation will be on for two more days. Got a perfect excuse to be back to BBSR.

Reached BBSR at 10:15 p.m and at 10:30p.m i was off with the keys of the RTR. Did a small 20 kms ride comprising of short bursts of acceleration.To the concerned,the vibrations has been dampened but you still feel the engine running(not a bad thing, though) Just dont compare it to the likes of the R15 and Unicorn.

The bike is slightly pulling to the right side and there is some noise from the front part when the bike goes over a pothole.May be the racer cone needs to be tightened or the steering balls need to be looked after.Anyways, will take the bike for 1st service tomorrow(odo reading:676kms, already!!) And yeah, the latest mileage figures stands at 53.4km/ltr!!

And the roll-on acceleration from 30km/hr in 5th gear is mindblowing.Nothing like it!!

So, when are you heading to BBSR to lay your hands on the white angel?

Btw, I think I should call you a TVS fan boy. Just kidding bro!

Thanks, dude!!

Btw, Even if you were serious , I would take that as a compliment.

And yeah, I just reached BBSR!!

Ok enough praising...

and at last, I am really waiting for the Drag race results...

Many many thanks for your kind words. Guess what, the mileage has breached the 50kmpl barrier.Will test it myself, and update here!!

Thanks, pranay!!

Yeah, this time i am planning a 0-120km/hr video!!

@chicane : The first few lines of your article applies to me too

I got my first silver beauty in the yr 2003 and learnt riding(a geared bike) on it. But lost patience waiting for the Menace, so my second bike is the r15

Nevertheless, take good care of all the machine and Congrats.

Thanks, karthik!! Good to see another Victor owner!!
