    I have FINALLY collected the bike from Ronit Motors this Sunday afternoon with all the registration completed.[/QUOTE]


    Congrats Melroy... Waiting for your review.. Don't know whether you've ridden high capacity bikes in the past as I was interested how does it feel jumping from 150cc to 650cc.

    I though to put some pics of orange(or red)/black dual tone GT 650r to keep the thread interesting.

    OT: Would be placing order for my riding gears (gloves,boots& knee guard) tomorrow

    Anybody bought/booked White GT , I am still struggling to finalize the color.

    after too much much of thought i realized that i need a bike only for weekend morning rides so no tourer for me . Also GT has that sports bike stance . GT is in for me but now struggling to finalize the color as i am confused between RED (single tone) and White (single tone ).

    Were are the pics of your RED beauty Melroyal, I hope you got delivery of your bike.

    I'm still torn between the two...since the last 2 months have been severely oscillation between the two... at one point being hell bent on the gt to another where I'm sure the ninja is it... having read innumerable reviews I don't think i can read anymore... the mind says ninja... the heart says gt... and I'm a person who listens to my heart 90% of the times.... I have left it now to the last minute when I actually go to make the purchase...

    Probably I may not behold the toppest postion but in reality I have rummaged more then 120 reviews of 'Ninja 650R and GT 650R' combined together, nothing has deterred me to choose what my fathomless need/want intends for. If ZX-6R I4 would have been a drop hold and priced righteously, GT650R would have taken a back seat.. this probably would have shunned 'me' or many like me in the segment of exhinitionists aka so called posers, but within you, 'your' dauntless reality awaits and cuts through the tagged stigma.

    I ain't a rich kid, neither I vouch to have been 'one', having sacrificed outings and the fancifying boon of youth fun, I have saved doughs to graduate, levitate and heave high in achieving my dreams. But still I pre-vision the final aim of my life and as the legendary masterpiece act of Heath Ledger puts it: 'Madness is Like Gravity, all it takes is a little Push!' many amongst us have beautified its essence indisputably
