Terror,

i am not sure of the mechanic. But the service incharge manager's name is Murali. He was pretty good and professional. He should be able to help you. Mileage I have not checked.. Power. Yes, feels like a new bike after those Meghdooth idiots meddling with my ride.

just got my baby back today from servicing. Bike feels great..pickup has really shot up..especially in the lower gears (the AGIP oil is settling in quite nicely

). Vibes have considerably reduced (but still present between 4-5k)..but the back drum squeaking still persists, even after i told them to look at it. All in All, Fast Bykes did a good job this time round..

0-100 in 9.5 seconds, top speed of a 140km/hr.! My god, that's fast for an Indian motorcycle FOR SURE! However, looking at that rather high compression ratio of 12.5:1, I wonder if it would require higher ocate petrol (91 or perhaps 97).

Is the racing kit launched already, or is it something that's in the pipelines?

Who wants a seperate racing kit when there is Joel around!!!
