    So has the Ninja run-in fully?

    Belting it?
    @Praful: Ninja run in complete. Its fun on the highways. Pretty responsive till 120 and I really love it till that point. You need to be a little patient beyond that, but then the bike still gives you a feel of cruising till 140. Haven't taken it beyond that. Trying to go a little easy.

    You can also look out for other cheaper options which would cost you around 1500 bucks...!

    Anyways, how was Ninja on the roads all the way uptill your hometown...!
    @Devilpulsarian: GATI is in the list. But do you have prior experiences? I've not had great ones with different packers and movers, so still contemplating.

    Aren't you planning to support the pics with some write-up?
    @tibby: These days, I'm out with the bikes very often. Especially with the Ninja around, its kind of difficult to resist. If I blog everything, I'm afraid I will be living my life from morning to evening and penning it down every night. So I will consider writing down trips that are longer enough and have good content for readers.

        Hmmm.. makes a lot of sense.. You should spend more time with the Kwacker, than with writing trip-logs for short trips..

        The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.
