  • [Photo Feature]: Two Stroker's Pride..Four Stroker's Envy....Version 2.0

    Ok, after a very..long time, here's my second thread that I'm creating. Before I can spill the beans, here's a small preview & let me see how many of them can guess what's coming new here...




    P.S. Should thank a couple of guys a ton for making this happen. None other than our very own Sriram & Goutham. Let me cover that story later....

    Advice is a form of nostalgia.
    Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

          You're most welcome irrespective of the trauma that I've put you through by not attending the calls Vijay.

          P.S. Will make sure to attend or atleast respond to a call next time.

                  As of now I've planned to keep it the 4S way Karthik, God only knows what is going to turn into once I start it (Sometimes I can't decide myself & leave it here to make up my mind). As of now will get the bike to normal commuting conditions, wait till the South West Monsoons are over & then start it on a slow pace.

                  What's your say Karthik..?

                      Yes i feel thats a good idea. I would like to suggest for the painting scheme though, maybe try the "Creamy White" or "Blue", which were launched in very limited numbers on 4-speed RX-Z. The blue especially is a very rare sight & looks very appealing.

                      Also any reason why you have not opted for disc setup on your 135 5-speed?

                        Very True Karthik, the Inspiration for White was purely based on ur creation TN-38-XX-XXXX that you've showcased in another forum. As i have original factory painted panels in Four speed Maroon with Stickers, deciding whether i should really go with it or buy one more set & paint it the 4S Blue.....

                        P.S. That White 4S of ur's was Mind Blowing to look at, to be frank that's my wallpaper even.

                        How come you missed this...



                        Two things one can observe:
                        • Effect of Southwest Monsoon (Parked her inside my room) and
                        • Disc brake set-up...:-)
