Is it just me or is this thread getting smaller every day? Posts being deleted?

I am sorry.... didn't visit your thread for quite sometime..... i bought a P220 u see ; so was busy with it. And yeah..... baroda is a decent city.... and there are a lot of SBK owners here..... i have even seen a Repsol edition of CBR here. All in all it is not too big, not too small and has a Cosmo crowd largely. Do let me know if you come around here. Do PM me if you want to know anything else.
Cheers!!

no joke, i read all 86 pages !! so much knowledge.. and above that, relish to the eyes !! damn sexy bike Fireblah !! Have fun and Ride safe

four japs

Four japs met one night for a ride together......
Introducing a new citizen of Kolkata...




At a fuel pump for air, but the air department was closed

Ninja and R15 joined me at my home in saltlake. I was eating dinner when i got a call, "we are at your home already". So i got changed and rushed down and then we rode together towards rajarhat. I was wondering where 600 is and just before entering new town area, the CBR 600 joined us too....
Was a rainy day, but by night time roads were fast drying up and it was cool. Amazing weather for a ride.
We went till the airport and came back. Dunno why but whenever security personnel spot a bike around the airport, they get alert. But this time more than just security people got alert... The CBR 600 makes one hell of a sound which even scared me the same night while it zoomed past me..... I wanted to take pictures at the airport as well, but decided not to for security reasons



Ninja developed a little problem of stalling at idle. There is a little knob on the right side for adjusting the idle rpm. I was quite surprised as I thought on FI engines, ECU does all this...

4 japs ?? I see only 3...

Oo... i considered R15 also as a Jap . It has the R1 DNA !!

oye ...sir, Good morning...welcome to xbhp

I'm asking.. where is a suzuki in the group ??

You had honda, kawa, yamaha r15. Where is suzuki ??

which year manufacture was the kawaski bike ???

Hehe good morning.... No suzuki in this ... but still there are four japs ! :P ( honda, honda, yamaha , kawasaki) :P
But wait 2 weeks, there would be a suzuki ...

I think kawasaki is 2009 model.

no it's not the 2009 cause this is wat the 09 looks like



It's a 08
72.1 PS @ 8500 rpm
66 Nm 6.7 mkg @ 7000 rpm

indeed a very practical bike anyidea how much it costed him ??



anyways when i use to ride back in 2007 we had a xBhp G2G n i had met a guy with a zzr-600, i lost his no will find out n let u know, more the merrier

@ Fireblah- was it the same knob we were twiddling with near the airport?
P.S.- Suzuki!! I smell something...!! Do let me know in case you guys head out....!!

Yup, the Ninja is the 2008 model, parallel twin, 70 odd horsepower. Really cool bike. Very practical for Kolkata. Has ample power, excellent stoppers (twin 320mm wavy discs) and 'mota chakka' people keep cribbing about....

Yeah, same knob.. The 09 model looks really nice.


Guys I need something to protect the surface of the bike. Lately I have seen lots of scratches on the paint... The micro ones which are formed due to dusting etc.....


Something like that . Also I wonder where do the people who do things like Teflon coating, get that stuff from ?

As Fireblah has already said... Soon the wait will be over. A big suzuki is coming soon.



Yes, but it will be a loong ride. No city rides please. Are you ok with it?

Teflon coating is of no use. You could get Lacquor Spray coating done. This is very good. Seals the shine of the paint job. I had the teflon coating done on my Opel Corsa. it only helps to repel water and dust. Then I go my car laquor coating. Even after 8 years the car looks as if out of the show room. Scratches are only on the lacquor coating not on the paint Job. In Bangalore only 2 parties were having this facility. one was in Kammanahalli where I got the job done ( forgot the name, some thing like eagle coats or so) and the other was MRF. you can check out the picture of the car in the Team BHP Stickers section.

@ Fireblah...
Neat pictures man. Its so crazy to see how small the Fireblade is. It looks as big as the 600RR. No wonder it tops all the performance charts. What an amazing package Honda have put together.
