    i do agree with u we have a supra, ax100r, rajdoot 175, rx100, yezdi roadking, rx 135, shogun, in our family the supra was bought by my dad and the rx135 by me i even feel that the supra is juicy comparing to all the others and tvs was the only factory sponsored racing team in the indian racing faternity and thanks to them we have these r15, cbr and stuff in india now they promoted racing to us
    youths nowadayshave very little knowledge about india's motor history its a pity to watch them talk about something they dont know

        Even i have told in my previous post>>>" All these bikes have qualities that are very attractive, there isn't any one bike that is decidedly superior to the others in every aspect.each of them has its own distinctive features......"
        But thought of comparing their features in various categories.....hm!! may be a old trend.....
        Sorry a big G.gap may be!!!


        Thank you drift for the specs.of the machine....which I have decided to pick one & feel it
        Yes picked one 1993, was still running on STD STOCK bore & ART factory fitted pistons....as usual with broken plastics and aftermarket wheel rims
        Planned to blue print the engine...lack of time (just pistons replaced after 1 st OS boring)...with some good tires etc...
        My feel about a Stock Shogun will be revealed after my Engine blue printing

            Nikhil, the SS was available only for rally and motocross teams . The 16 bhp SS kit could be specially ordered from TVS -SUZUKI which had the 16bhp bore , head and gas filled rear shocks . The bore was larger in size and had bigger reeds that were seen on the Shogun later.
            I believe the 16bhp bore was the same that was used on the Shadow .

                    Hello Doc,
                    As I was bit old for these New Gen bikes ( for me), though 'am not sure about the inside story of SUPRA SS, but for sure...it din't have GAS filled Shock absorobers., the rear Shocks was pure hydraulic, but pretty much Stiffer& bit taller than the Supra SS
                    I have not ridden the Supra SS, but it(SS Shocks) was have fitted in a Gladiator of my Friend.....It was much more stiffer than I thought.....it was bone shaker in Yamaha Gladiator.....think still one of my friend haves it....will try to catch up with him & post the pics

                        In my previous post it should be>>>" Pretty much stiffer & bit taller than Supra power up"
                        instead of"......much stiffer & taller than Supra SS
                        fault is regretted!!

                          Here is my Ind-Suzuki ( S) , pics
                          Yes I have TWO I.Suzuki s, one Blue -1985 & a Red -1984
                          Usually When TVS Suzuki s & Escorts Yamaha s discussed at any forum , i maintain some distance ( Reason is No secret!!..as most of us aware of...)
                          That's why all these days My Ax 100 s was brought to lime light in any forum.....any way after my Shogun project (almost done), I may take up the Ind-suzuki project
                          Both of them in pretty running condition, with almost all stock parts...Though these AX 100 s are are not Fire Breathers like there arch rivals or not even a close contender to her successors ....For sure I-S is a ultra Cool bike !!!
                          Here is my Red Ind-suzuki>>
