After service, the bike has started getting smoother and more rev friendly both by the mechanics and in my mind. Been happy revving her past 8000 and riding her like a pulsar now-a-days rev happy red lining :P Its a beautiful experience and a pleasure getting used to. No more are the panic attacks and rush or shivering, I don't get those furious heartbeats anymore. Now things are in control I have a way with my bike and getting more and more used to it. Super bikes do get rider friendly over time and it is something I've learned over time and experience

Had my first wet ride today, have to say aqua-planning (Tyre floating over water) does happen as it does on any bike, more so with a wider Tyre. Accelerating in wet with stock Tyre is risky and rear wheel does slip and hard braking is a no no. Like I've read on some articles and reviews of many super-bikes, on wet conditions do anything and everything smoothly. Braking, accelerating, cornering anything, take it slow.. with proper riding gear for wets and a helmet and glove.. You sure can ride it fast and safe, these bikes don't give any trouble. Had the pleasure of riding hard in heavy rain and It felt like cakewalk Cars are no more a necessity for wet weather! Welcome riding gear

Anyone owning any bike, please buy riding gear for both wet and dry weather. It makes riding an all new experience and it is worth every penny by both safety and comfort! Go for it cheers!

Sirji, how are you ? And how's the Alien Warship doing ?
BTW have you considered under seat lights/fender eliminator kit ?

ha..ha am great bhai. As for alien warship she's doing great. No not gonna make any mods like lights and eliminator kits. I am sort of a guy who prefers to keep things stock Ill post if I do make any mods bro. Cheers

Congrats blackside for your ride... I am also a crazy and a very big fan of cb1000r I have spotted that white cb1000r in NH7 tirunelveli phew! he just flew past me and rode between two trucks which were overtaking each other while i was walking along the roadside,At that moment i was like and telling my dad and mom did you saw that bike that's what I am gonna own.
Do you know that rider? Is he an xbhpian? Is he from tirunelveli? I am dying to see the bike in real and up close.
Please let me know if you know that guy....

yeah bro, the white one was delivered from coimbatore showroom, it is owned by someone in tirunelveli and he even had his bike serviced at tirunelveli at his place it seems. I don't know the name or location specifically to help you.. but if you do get to meet him, post him a hi from me! cheers! bro..

If i meet him i will definitely share your words and if you ever made a tour or visit alongside tirunelveli by your cb1000r please let me know through this thread or send me a message on my profile

If I do, I will post you bro in the meanwhile hope you do get to catch up with the tirunelveli owner sometime.. have fun, cheers!

K thanks bro i will try to meet him by contacting the showroom and also please post some more photos of your beauty...

@Blackside: Bro sorry,Did you met with any accident?

Congrats bro!!

You got one hell of a ride,perfect for the highways n city rides & pretty fogiving too at the same time.Shez a perfect example of the beauty & the beast. The torque curve is so smooth n linear ,she picks up from under 2k revs right to where the rev limiter cuts in. After 5k revs shes a different beast,asking for more n more & a difficult task for ur right wrist which is itching to gas it up.
Besides the asthetics , the machine ,the dynamics n so on what i adore is the FORGIVING nature of this litre class beast.
Well replying to ur rear skidding/sliding on ur rear brake hard usage,pls forget ur rear brakes and use only the front ones as they contribute max to ur bike stopping.U can avoid these skids for sure.

Just thought some people might be interested
