    passion pro shocks are adjustable! whereas twister's is'nt and moreover the twister stock shocks are more stiff.

    Hmmmm, now i need to do some looking around to find the best ones. Prob pick them from some other hero or honda bike as most of them share the parts.

      I don't think so Passion Pro is is having better suspension than twister. Better we try Gas charged suspension which are used in Discover 100cc

        give p135's shocks a try.
        and the question remains why do i race?
        every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

          But i don't think so Honda ll launch CBR150R in india. Bcz before launching the CBR250R Honda said, they ll not launch another 150cc in India. so that they launched CBR250R instead of 150R



          Ya that's a hard experiment but if i got fixed perfectly na it'll give good suspension na. Bcz nowadays i hate the suspension, even my Dad's aviator is good in suspension.

          The 150r is confirmed to hit the indian market, it was showcased in the delhi auto expo.

          Be very careful while trying to change the twister's rear assembly to a mono type. might screw up the bike's whole dynamics and balance!
          p.s: thats one of the reason i'm going in for a new bike so i can experiment with this one!

            I think both Hero & Honda is having the same suspension level we'll try it in Bajaj or in Suzuki

              they need to be of the same height else they'll screw the balance. any ideas on that??? (like can i adjust their height to that of twisters?)

                Not only try with Double shocks also try with MOno & Prolink shocks.
                I'll wait for your results

                    there are some pics posted here by sachin having neat job done of a mono shock. looks like that of a unicorn, but then again, the whole swingarm has to be changed and all that fabrication i dont think is worth it, instead get compatible gas charged one as u said and be happy riding!

                      mono shocks and prolinks are same with different fancy names,but monoshock on twister will be over-kill,rather try gas charged one.

                        Pulsar 135 is having a height adjustable shocks see the pic
                        It's also having Nitrox gas filled.But i think it's height is bigger than Twister

                            if i fix up on a bike by april and get it then i'm surely getting a mono shock set-up done on my twister, else will have to look for a temp set-up.

                              u can see the gas charged shock have a chamber which would kind off have a fitting issue with our twister which has a plastic covering over the shock.

                                My requirement is to get good suspension,My thought is Mono only give good suspension if gas charged is giving good na then that ll be enough.
                                Bot as Baazigar said we cant fix the gas charged in our bike na
