          What matters to me and me enjoying the superbikes is the riding responsibilty, maturity and the understanding that comes with riding these bikes. Its no fun riding with posers who dont even know how to sit on a superbike. So many posers have so many basics wrong its not even funny.

          Thats not the case in Pune..

          Pune does reasonably well as in its got more responsible and good riders than posers.The only city that is exporting racers to national racing championships down in the south to chennai and some of them like Varad More and a bunch of other guys actually kick some ass on the track.

          I am not sure why I made this post
          Even I am not sure about the above post but I definitely whole heartedly agree with it

            Whoa! I'm glad your findings are correct. It would be a very expensive research if the rumour was incorrect.


            Congrats mat!! Awesome gear too! Nice to see stuff bought right from the first block!

            Post a video man... Wanna listen to the evil language of the decepticon...
            You get the point?? :D

                    I would have liked to see some more photographs at different locations.

                    If I am not mistaken, the 2009 R1 also comes with stock adjustable rearsets.

                    There is a "Way" of sitting on a Superbike? I did not know. I still do not know. If there are basics like that, it would be nice if you could create a constructive detailed thread regarding this. I am sure a lot of us will benefit from this.
                    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

                        lol Ken ! I am not sure if you are just taking my case here

                        @ others : The comparo is gonna be a noob comparo peeps. Nothing spectacular like Motoroids or other professional magazines. Just some goofing around for fun and nothing more.

                        With the current weather reports I think its gonna be a while before we even attempt to take the bike out for a short stroll.

                              btw this bike is the shortest in length. Shorter than a Honda by 5 mm. 5mm is small but if u wanna have your pick, gixxer is shorter than the blade. But its Decepticon looks make it look larger. When I saw this bike in metal it felt like its gonna spring into becoming a giant transforming Robot ANYTIME

                              edited for correction.

                              edit 2 : I also wanna throw in something about the power modes. Suzuki is bang on with its power modes. Its not a 'make look' kind of Yamaha's useless modes( I am not gonna say sorry to the yamaha folks..its a fact). On a Suzuki the modes actually work delivering better mileage in the 600 aka C mode. I am having to ride the Blade right now and I miss the modes on my bike sorely. I have had a couple of moments on the Blade where the power of a 1000cc was just downright so insane that I got off the bike at home and could hardly hold the lighter to light my cig. Too much throttle when I already know I have the reflex and feel of a 3 year old jacked up on energy pills is a common occurance on a 1000cc....and it aint a healthy habit I am falling prey to. I want those mighty modes !

                              edit 3: MY FEARS HAVE COME TRUE. THE GIXXER INDEED IS A DECEPTICON. watch this vid
