          Bang your head, while standing opposite/close to a wall, speed @2-3kmph? Hurts?
          Increase your speed & watch the fun, when someone falls from a Motorcycle,unfortunately he can't choose which way to fall best & hurt himself less.

            a bit of update on one of the sites... not much but a confirmation that the PM is going and the plan has not canceled yet... there is one point of worry for us bikers.... the tariffs will be reduced over a period of 10 years...

              Great news. But 10 years? And yeah, its better late than never. I couldnt help but wonder how current sbk owners feel about this news.
              Also what about bmw and ducatis ?

                  no one can comment on it right now.... as japs are forcing indians to cut down duties on automobiles fully while indian government forced by the auto lobby will try to hold it much longer.... only 25th of October will tell us what its gonna be....

                  btw are you planning to buy 1??

                                one saying that the EPA is off the agenda on this visit of PM to Japan...

                                EPA not on the agenda of PM?s Japan visit

                                and the other saying it will be concluded on this visit....

                                India, Japan to sew up economic accord, n-supply pact not ready

                                now whom to believe??? guess only time will tell.........

                                @time: pls tell quickly...
