And as a matter of fact , except for over taking when there is a chance ,
there is no use of high amount of power needed while city riding , well atleast in our city conditions here , well I just mentioned these situations for the sake of it .
And we dont reach any place much more faster by short speed burst and braking and short burst and braking compared to steady riding . Infact according to me steady riding teaches much more and is healthy for your ride .
We claim ourselves to be a biker and boast about how different we are from people because we are responsible riders and know or have some info about our bikes functioning etc . We call fireblades and R1 's marvel of an engine .
Then we ridicule this small engines by calling them uncle bikes or etc .
Arent these things motorcycles ? . Does it not need any effort to design these petty things ? . So why do we give them their respect .
These bikes save hell amount of fuel . People are spending double the money to buy enivornment friendly cars and so so . These small cc bikes are available much cheaper and in a way serve a noble cause , dont they?.
Well some ways how they help
1. Save petrol
2. Less emissions as less petrol is wasted for the same distance travelled etc . And if there is a catalyzer , more helpful .
But the irony is if a person buys a environment friendly car and goes somewhere , he is seen with respect . But if some rich motorcyclist for his daily chores buy a yo bike or some mileage friendly petrol saving bike ,
he may be considered as a lowly or a poor person unless you know him / her personally .
Heck the Honda CD 70 even climbes twisties with some effort .
I wonder why it is not sold here .
And if these 50, 70 cc bikes are available for cheap . It may also affect Hero Honda resale value thing some way . And people finally stop buying them and give hero honda a heart attack .
And finally try to bring out something new , heck even if it is 50 cc .
Ps : I may sound kinda aggressive but I am not shouting at anyone or blaming anyone or supporting anyone here . Neither am up for an argument here . I am just requesting fellow xbhpians to ponder on this view point also . I am just asking some respect for this small wonderful engines .
I am talking considering in mind those people who require and will anyways buy a bike which can help them . Because then you all would argue that cycles are more environment and body friendly .
Cheers n ride safe .







I thought my bike delivers the best mileage.
