      ys group d is for stock, cant change even the air filters, can remove the rvrm, light, battery, rest all should be stock. Mudguard also should be there for 100 CM atleast.

            Ok, but how about fixing a plastic fenner instead of a chromed one? Isn't that permitted too?

                am getting my YBX ready....will complete it by end of monday, shedding as much weight as possible from the bike...otherwise going to be in stock condition.

                Guys - Need help in buying leathers, not too costly stuff but a decent one I have the below mentioned which can be readily used on track

                Riding Boots - RJays Edge
                Gloves - Alpinestars GP+
                Helmet - Vega Boolean (Not sure if the same can be used in the track)

                Other items are more for touring (Mesh / textile Jacket / Pants / Knee Guards)
                Never Give up on something that you can't go a day without thinking about.

                Cheers

                    Ys I had checked, YBX is no more there, but can be used for practicing and maybe will get a Apache which is the cheaper option...

                      Apache is 160 cc then you would ve to compete in the Group D (modified below 165cc category); try getting a used gladiator or borrow one from your friend as you re a first timer its more better you try the entry level group D(upto 130cc stock) Gladi will not let you down .Just my two cents..
                      Or else try trading the Ybx for a gladi

                        have spent enough on my YBX and if I have to exchange with a gladi and then spend on it again .

                        will search for one soon, will have to trade my other bikes then (CL2, RX 100...) Let me think through it.

                          Since apart from gladi the other options are alba and stunner ; stunner would cost a bomb dono about alba's performance ; Is it good or gladi is better than it

                            Alba as for as i know its a commuter vehicle...and its <100 cc,

                            stunner / Gladiator / YBX all fall under the same category, maybe we can look at twister also, rest all I dont think it would be worth it to spend

                            Have given a comparison between Stunner and YBX

                                Ys twister is homologated

                                Entry level Leathers - Approx 20k
                                Riding Boots - Approx 5k
                                Gloves - Approx 2.5k
                                Helmet - Approx 3k

                                These are only basic and if your bank balance is high you can get premium stuff
