    Well then 4k of the booking amount of ninja goes down the drain. Hope that does not happen.

            There are many options in HDFC (40%/50%/60%/70%) finance scheme
            One of the option is 1.2ish downpayment, 1.8ish Loan amount
            Emi Comes to Rs. 6349 X 36 Months
            Interest rate is 9.5%
            Didn't find any site which mentions exact interest rate for bikes.

            16-17% is too much. We get personal loans at this rate. I am also thinking of the same. 1.2 DP but the tenure I am thinking of is 36 Months.

            Saw Ninja and CBR both yesterday. I must say that Ninja is far more better than CBR (no offense to any CBR owners, But I just felt that CBR's engine was an upgraded Karizma)

                Any gains in performance from that? If so, by how much?

                      Well, the low-end grunt seems to have improved quite a bit. The bike now pulls quite strongly from the low end. Haven't so far had the occasion to test at the top-end, but I dare say that there should be a reasonable improvement there as well.

                      Afraid I could not find any torque / bhp charts for this to be able to say what the exact improvement is. However, the US (carburetted) model gains by about 3.3 PS. Please see the graph attached. I expect that the improvement on FI models should be similar.

                      Having said all that, I think there is a substantial difference in the way the bike behaves - feels much more potent and the torque seems to be much better lower down in the rev band.

                      I will see if I can get a dyno test done after the K&N is installed so I can provide exact figures.

                        Me thinks it'll be a wee bit more compared to the carb engines. One can expect a max of 4-5 bhp bump on a well made full exhaust system.

                            I guess we'll find out once I have the K&N in. Intend to get it dyno'ed just to see what the impact is.

                            • Yesterday, while cleaning the bike I saw a pipe hanging behind the side stand, inside the fairing. It just came to my concern, that some pipe is left loose or its some outlet pipe maybe for the battery overflow.

                              Am I right? Is that some outlet pipe?

                              • ^^ its is an outlet pipe.. its normal.
