    As Satyen said, they are pretty useless. They get extremely cold and given the low riding speeds, you actually don't need the protection. If you want them, you can collect my shoes (size 10). You need slightly oversize shoes because you will be wearing at least 2 pairs of socks and a polythene bag inside.
    Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.

            I guess it should be open by this week. Royal Enfield Himalayan Odyssey folks are doing the Manali>Keylong>Sarchu>Leh over this week and I dont think they are changing their route.

            Anyways I leave it open for others to comment...

                        I haven't heard of any problems as such with C5 @ high altitudes till now.

                            • Hi ...
                              3 of us are planning for Leh ths july 23rd nd for a 2 week trip in TB,P200 and Apache 150 '06 model.

                              can i make it with apache 150 ...
                              initially i planned to hire a bike but since i don't have experience in a bullet i preferred my bike over rented bikes.

                              i have read threads with people doing great with ct 100, and glamor but just wanted to confirm from you people.

                              so any one who has done a recent trip can u give us the update on current road condition and rain over there.

                                IT CAN!!!

                                we had a Passion & it did well throughout, only problem was it hiccuped while climbing altitudes...
