    Re: Help me select a 2 stroke bike

    Eh...Mr.Boss,Shogun was completely Indian made product and Samurai was Japanese.So technically,It is TVS Shogun.But also If you look at the Paper and Real world Overall Package,Shogun was better.I have a seperate Respect to the RX Series and also which the RX 100 was my dad's first bike.But Shogun is just better.Thats all

        OK Sure,No Probs.I can suggest you some ads.I need to know your Budget.This is an OK Condition RX 135 5 Speed with Insurance and All Documents Current and is asking Rs.35,000 - Rx 135 5 speed - Chennai - Motorcycles - Scooters - Okkiyam Thuraipakkam I think this will be a good deal.

          Thanks for the link, having it as second option, right now I am in talks to get an single owner RX100 in decent condition, only issue here is that I have to get FC after a short period of time. Can someone shed some light on this, I am ok with the hassle but how much does it usually cost to get the FC for a bike in decent condition.

            I think for that FC question,Mr.Boss is the best person to ask ! He owns 3 RX 135s and has experience unlike me.I will definitely try to ask few Owners and some Mechs near me.BTW,Please post the pics of the RX 100 so we all will have a better idea on the Condition of the bike.Thanks

            OT - That Spare-parts Trouble Car ! Is it a Daewoo ?

              I got my 100&135 FC done without paying more than govt.fee and saved 6500 bucks shedding to an agent.

                      Congrats, the bike looks in decent cosmetic condition. If you aren't particular about restoring it to picture perfect, use the bike as is. May be keep stock of consumables like cables etc for your future requirements.

                        Decided to go for it since the bike was mechanically restored recently, owner sold it due to his health condition, I am currently running her in(yes owner didn't clock any miles after restoration), will remove the tank cover alone and cover it with matte vinyl to avoid paint fade, will try to do few changes if my pocket allows

                        Planning to keep it as it is, might go for very minor performance mods in the future once the run-in completes.

                          A bike on the road is worth two in the shed.

                            Thanks for the wishes never thought I would buy a bike this old, its actually almost an year older than me small correction to the original post, bike is an 1990 example, got confused with the other RX I saw that time.
                            [MENTION=23793]mod[/MENTION]s : is it possible to edit the title as bought?
