      The Impulse is Superb at places and boring in some, the RTR is like the old love that you keep going back to! So unless something radical happens I could go back to cheap thrills, which is BEST done by a RTR!
      Thats a stagerrringgg figure and that too when you have 3-4 bikes. So assuming your data is perfect I would say half the day you're on bikes and can't imagine the amount you would have spent in 6months like these on your bikes
      Whats there in a signature?

          Are u not glad to see me too?

          I reserve my comment until i see the bike! But i love the LED Pilot lamps

          My RTR has done 78-79k kms now. Monthly run has reduced from 2.5-3.5k to just 0.6k - 1k kms in the past 6 months. Returning good mileage (around 55). Only rust issue i faced so fare is with the Silencer which was replace U/W!

          @satyen

          Why buy the new one? I guess ur RTR is all souped up to kick ass's of 200CC + bikes! And thats lot of run on the Ninja!

                I'm sure that there are plenty of factors that end up affecting how a product ends up looking and being perceived the way it does, so I wouldn't point fingers or criticize any particular part of a company

                Within the context of this being a cosmetic upgrade: The underlying styling language of the Apache was one of a sculpted/organic look. To suddenly take that foundation and go at it with as many sharp edges as possible is what I think makes this look like a confused design. I wish they developed the upgrade whilst extrapolating from the initial approach.(see attatched jpeg)

                Also being a bit dated doesn't mean that the design/style of the bike is in anyway bad or needs upgrading e.g. the Shogun may look a bit dated but still holds its own against the current crop of bikes by looking light and nimble.(that may be a biased opinion)
