    This was done exactly, sorry I forgot to mention about the break in between that 6 hours.

    Couldn't resist myself from posting this image.

        Good looking pic., but why have you used pulsar shocks and not the original one.

          Thanks man. but the subject bike on discussion is the other one with OE shocks.
          Blue one has got a lot of parts borrowed from other bikes (just to avoid the boring factor of having similar bikes, both in stock form)

              Oh! my mistake, from the pictures it looks that as if you have not installed the flute of the muffler also, i believe you have also remoulded the seat, pls post a video of your bike engine idling also.

                Yes, the seat is custom made (carry over from my RX135)
                Will post the video of both bikes ASAP.

                      Your blue bike with avenger mirrors looks good, how is the view of these mirrors, is it better from the oe ones.

                        Satish, do you mind a small sugestion? pls go for a normal seat. The wavy seat looks a bit downmarket. Please pardon me for saying so.

                          Thank you. View is good, Never used the OE mirrors so no comments / comparison (this is the 1st time to have mirrors installed on a 2 wheeler in my 16 years of driving history)

                          PS: There is a separate thread available for the blue bike. Let's put any further queries / comments over there.

                          This is a temporary seat Bibhu.
                          Will be switching to normal seat soon (or may interchange the seats between the two bikes)

                              Always a pleasure to help a fellow stroker.

                                It is my understanding that all strokers should help each other. Whether its gathering knowledge or getting parts, only by a combined effort we can make sure that 2-strokes survive. I have recieved a lot of help from my seniors. So I am just doing my part carrying forward that faith and good will.
