I have the cortech Sports tail bag and love it. Its secured to the bike with the inbuild bungee chords. Fits well and does not budge.

Thanks Malliah. Please share a pic of the same and the cost of the same.

went to bachoo yesterday, had a discussion with him on the bag.. he told that RJays Sports Saddlebags won't work only , RJays Platinum Series Super Sport Panniers will be a good fit.

I think rahul is also using the same.. but these where way out of my budget , so now will have to look for the other options.

Rahul has a Ventura tail bag, not the RJay's. Check out the bachoo motors thread. I asked Zulfi for a tailbag in that thread and he has replied with an image and the price.

LOL. They probably sold the CBR250 prototype to you and made a profit.

Malliah posted the pictures a few pages ago - you missed them!

I have a Ventura tail bag+ RJay's supersports saddle bags. I used them on my GQ trip. Great bags.

No wonder the RX100 guy overtook me on the mysore highway. Single cylindera saar.

Okey... Got the point.

However, I doubt that any Registration certificate will mention bhp. Mine certainly does not.

. I think all the motorcycles' Rcs' have mentioned their respective bhp.

Originally posted by nitro66 View Post

mine is also printed as 24 bhp, dont know why? may be there are some rule like higher bhp higher tax or somthing so they are saving some taxes

Got a call from PBK chennai today. The Power or bhp mentioned in RC refers to 24KW which is 33hp. So it is clear now.

At almost the starting of this thread i said "Ninja is overpriced, Ninja is not worth the bucks KAWASAKI is demanding and all the Blah blah's.

2 days back i rode the machine for the first time for some 20-25 kms, and honestly it is THE BEST bike i have drivven in my 25 years of life.

The feel it gives you, the way needle swipes the tachometer, the way engine pulls, the kick you feel, it covers your balls automatically with steel armour when you put your knee down, the confidence it gives you is almost 100% more than RTR FI (the bike i own and ride)

Those whole 25kms was something else, something i have never experienced, something "real", something i believe will be better'd by I4 600 or a litre.

It made me say to myself when i stopped the bike- "This is what motorcyling is all about".

I eat my words back i said earlier.

"THIS IS THE BIKE you should be blowing your money on".

I believe it is the No 1 International seller....most preferred 250cc bike, and there must be a reason for it..

legally u need to be 18 to ride a geared bike.

pulling a few strings is possible, but not legal.

on private roads u can ride at 10 too.
but for public roads, u need to be 18.

yes you can ride any bike with a " L " board + learner's license . India is a wonderful country and has not specified any CC / power limitations etc for a learner. the rule book says that " L " Board should be displayed in the front and rear number plate of the bike, and you should have a full license holder as the pillion ( while on practice / road ).

by the way i have got my two wheeler license riding my 350 cc Bullet motorcycle. you have to do a figure of 8 three times non stop on the bike without putting your foot on the ground and its is not an easy thing to do on a bullet. so i did it twice and on third put my foot once on the ground but the Vehicle inspector had some sympathy it seems ( small kid on big bike theory) and passed me.

i hope the rules are still the same.

i like the "Learning to ride" thing on a ninja ( for India ) good going there.
