OMG! This thread has gone ballistic!
What a day it was!
I narrowly missed a trucks silencer that kinda exploded and flew towards me @ Panvel!
Spotted a new FZ breed... I swear! 8 people riding it with Temp numbers and uniform and lids... there was something different about the bikes but couldnt figure what it was... plus was running out of time, so couldnt chase them
Spotted 3 New TATA Cars...
1 looks like the Indigo version of the Indica Vista... a sedan with Vista styled Lamps
1 another sedan that looks completely fresh..
1 SUV, which looked like the new SUMO on Steriods!!!
Clicked pics, but what the hell, we are a bike community!
Had a brilliant Ninja feeler, which I will post only after MOD approval...

Ground clearance also will be a major concern in city.
So looks like this is a bike to be ridden on smooth highways only.
It a high reving bike alright, but its much better than the R15 on low end... and if you can manage the R15, then this thing will simply blow you away!Originally posted by santoosh View Post
PS: People will continue to crib even if Ducati brings a 125CC bike and price it as 50k
Going by that logic, its almost as good\bad as my R15... 10L x 30 odd KMPL.... heck atleast I will reach the Fuel station fasterOriginally posted by Sarvajit View Post

+1, I, for one now think that 2.69 Lakhs is a pretty impressive deal, considering that you have a 'legal' Euro class bike!Originally posted by razorBlades View Postnext wait is for KTMs.. even if it is for 10+ lacs, I am buying one and not the ninja for 3+ lacs
(my personal favs being KTM's)
My ONLY reason to NOT buy this would be the KaTooM!! and from what I heard today, the 690 is a notch above the Ninja in overall performance! but then the 66bhp engine under the ass can make a mess of it in city riding! OMG! Why cant life be simple!
I am seriously confused!Originally posted by ashes View Postany xbhpian seriously thinking of buying one??
B2L? Who is that...? and was he @ Chakkan?Originally posted by desideep View Post

Cribbing, too much is never enough
ROFLMAO! On one hand a zillion people here CRY for someone as n00b as M&M to bring the GT250... with NO idea of how they would be able to service this.... and then this comment is downright hilarious!Originally posted by anirudh fz1 View Post
Personally, I feel Bajaj has done a great job in bringing this bike to India... Heck this is a new segment, it ends up repositioning R15 as poor mans performance bike!!!!
I agree with Part 2, but that calculation was sweet :POriginally posted by rider_no46 View PostI dont understand why people are cribbing about the Ninja . 3 lac. is a good price for a multicylinder sportsbike which has come via the skd route. Make a simple calculation Yamaha R1 is 1000cc costs 12lac plus , now divide it by 4 , you have 250 cc and 3 lac. Also its exactly the same bike that is available abroad without any India specific changes.
Regarding the analog meters and lack of fuel guage are just minor issues, whats important is that this bike hits 100 kmph in 7 sec and goes on to a top speed of 160+ kmph. Its the practical bike with more than adequate power for Indian conditions. Just think about how many people owning the Yamaha R1 or Honda CBR 1000RR or Suzuki Hayabusa have been able to explore all the massive power these machines have or have been on roads where they can reach near 300 kmph speed the above machines go to.
The Ninja is a good bike and all good things come at a price!
How much do you think TVS should sell RTR160 for :P Just curious~!
KTMs are 'coming soon'Originally posted by rishi500 View Post
I was told that the down payment would be around 50-75k for the bike but NOTHING has been finalised yet on the finance part, but they are SURE about getting finance option!Originally posted by Jonak View Post

@ all
When will we stop cribbing, when the grapes are out of our reach. Accept that you can not buy the bike because you do not have the money.
Giving lame excuses and blaming the awesome bike (or even more awesome Company) is really shameful.
Understand the huge leap we, as a biking nation, has taken through this step
Thank Bajaj for all this else we (and probably our grand children) would have died counting the endless permutations and combinations of those 97cc Japanese engines which we would have been limited to!2002 - Pulsar 150 Classic (Still owned)
2005 - Pulsar 150 Dtsi (Still owned)
2006 - Eterno (sold)
2008 - Dio (Owned)
2009 - Pulsar 220 DTSi
