    Sumit any idea where can I find an Aquilla engine in Bangalore?
    Hammer the racetrack. Pace yourself on the street.

      I have no idea about that . Didn't hear anyone selling the engine alone.

      PS: changed the profile pic. Just waiting for his win and then we'll see some corny design on his helmet or bike or livery

        I'd guess, there isn't much difference between the comet and the aquila engines (if at all) ... right down till the gearbox ..
        Kawasaki Ninja : Because lazy sunday afternoons should be despatched at 160 kmph!!!
        Hyosung Aquila : Because sometimes you need to look cool while riding at 40 kmph and you can do that only on a cruiser !!!

            Awesome rebuild there bro.
            I just wanted to know one thing, how much did painting the forks gold cost you ? Any specific paint.

              Sukant as santa said. it is the same. if you look closely the cylinders of the comet, you will find "GV250" embossed on it which is nothing but aquila

              The forks were always golden pal. I didn't do anything on the forks.
              I got a lot of things done in those three months (rearset, etc) and I paid a bulk amount to my mechanic so I don't know exactly how much I paid for paint, scheme.

                  quite a looker bro, though i would suggest to add a pro-grip on tank to avoid the damages(which can incur) by the belt buckle

                    A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

                      @Sumit.Pannalall: Nice job there Sumit. Looks straight out of the showroom. There should've been a 'like' option like fb. The USD forks are simply resplendent.
                      Riding is a way of life. Sometimes, it might also be a way of giving life. So Ride safe. In both contexts.

                        hey Sumit.. first off .. neat job on the bike... looks as classic as ever.. secondly want to thank you for referring me to Irshad bhai... i had a problem which was something that was bothering me and he figured it out in no time... well. i have given my bike for revamping but i need to admit that the bike will be on same terms wiht your bike color wise.. i was goign to get the bike painted back to its original color which was red but he suggested the bright one which you have .. the only thing that will look different would be the engine.. you have a black one and my bike will retain its original look... .. lastly.. he is an awesome mechanic.. its 2 months and i am waiting patiently fo rthe bike.. hoping my expectation will not be lost... thank again....
