    How many of you are planning to keep this as your secondary bike? As in, for touring/long distance rides/etc...
    I am confused if I should sell my P150 or keep it as my daily office commuter and keep Bruna(CBR Baby) exclusively for touring/rides/not-so-frequent-oooh-aaaah-show-off-ride-in-the-neighbourhood?
    Coz this being a new bike and that too a costly one, parking and taking it everywhere is going to be a pain. I mean I really cant park it in M.G.Road/Brigade Road or by the pavement when I am going for a cup of coffee!!!

      I reckon initially keep both.. after the bike becomes 3-4 months old, u are anyway going to find it everywhere and the showoff value will also be at its minimal.. Then, sell the p150 and this bike becomes the primary bike.. At least that's what i plan to do with my CBZ classic..


      Edit: Well on a second thought, i can't sell my CBZ! that'll just make me sad! i might keep it at office for quick rides nearby...

        Good idea. I am finding it difficult to sell P150 also, because its been my first bike, and first love is always hard to forget.
        On second thoughts, maintenance is also a problem for two bikes together. No one else thinking along these lines....? Because come what may, there will be far too many cbr's on road in a couple of months, but it will number far less than R15's and far more than Ninja's.

            Lets wait and see. :-)
            By the way I stay near 43 A bus stop, BSK 3rd stage. Where do u stay?

            P.S. My FZ got sold yesterday.
            With wife and daughter on FZ...how could it be even conceivable on such a tiny pillion!! As you say, I will wait to see the bike first hand. But the big problem is the wait itself

            My house is 10 mins from Kamakya, it is close to Chenammana Kere Acchukattu park.... Lets meet in the showroom

              This is too bad.. We lost our valuable information.. I never expect this from anyone in this community!!!

                @All - I see a lot of members are using SMS lingo in their posts. I haven't touched any of those but from now on all the posts with SMS lingo will not be spared and will be straightaway deleted.
                I am honored sir.

                The world is full of hopeless people!

                I thought I would be great to do this but I guess the idiots in this world wont allow good people to live happily!

                I didnt expect this but I dont think its someone from XBHP as others too can do this! I do have a backup as suggested by someone on chat that time.

                I am closing this spreadsheet but I really wanted to know who all booked from Mumbai so that we could meet sometime but the idiots spoiled it all.

                So I dont think we can continue this sheet anymore
                I feel like Peter Parker when I drive my Hunk in the city but I become Spiderman when I am on my CBR swinging from one lane to the other on expressways.

                  Try seeing revision history, you might get it back if we are lucky enough.
                  open the spreadsheet goto file->see revision history.

                  • @HH_Hunk - May be you start maintaining in form of posts here, so that no one can remove it. May be you can take the ownership to update the entire list at one of your own post. Basically, keep editing & adding the entries. What say?

                              • From what I have read so far, all most all of them say the bike looks much much better in flesh than the pics.

                                One of my colleague was telling that Haiku Honda will have a bike for display by this weekend, can some one confirm?
