Dude read hyperions touring thread where he himself (a ninja rider) would have quoted nikil devils666 RE as ' a RE in hand is worth two ninja's at the bush' the torque RE produces is monstruous but then again do you need it all or not is upto your usage only;more city+less highway= Ninja;less city+more highway=c5 anyways go for what your heart beats for best wishesComment

I would rather mod the hell out of RD and call it a day. RD is one of those monsters, once modded to full potential, can even make the baby ninja cry.My thoughts are subjected to personal experiences/internet articles. Please read my comment carefully before replying. :)Comment

if it's working fine... what "maintenance" are you talking about?Originally posted by vinjaram View Post
is it fuel consumption only?
or high cost of spares?
or cost of keeping it in good shape?
fuel consumption on the ninja would be 22ish kmpl.
which is about 20% better than compared to your current RD.
the RE in this case would work out the most "cost-effective" of the three bikes... in terms of fuel, spares and maintenance.
keep in mind...
the ninja does need mandatory service check-ups to keep your warranty valid...
it doesn't come with free services check-ups.
so keep in mind the cost involved.
my suggestions... i'll keep it simpleOriginally posted by vinjaram View Post
Scenario 1: Keep the RD... buy the Ninja
If I were you... this is what I'd do.
There's no way in hell the Ninja250R would ever be able to replace the explosive RD350.
Scenario 2: Sell the RD... buy the Ninja.
Would make things easier... financially.
Scenario 3: Don't buy the RE CL500
if you'v'e been an RD owner u'l know what I mean.
i personally wouldn't move from an RD to a RE.
unless highway riding is what u're into... did i mention??? don't buy the RE.

Guys I guess I have not ridden Ninja and C5 n thats the reason I am confused abt it.. Have ridden RE electra and found comfortable.... Only comfortable..... Dont know abt the C5 Pick up but can assume the comfort as Electra was comfortable....
But dont know the reason why Ninja is for sale within a year????
Is there a problem in it or ????
I guess only a Ninja user would be able to answer this...Comment

Dude what did the owner tell as reason for selling the ninja do check with any ninja specialist mech and ensure it does not have any engine issuesComment

wow you are in an enviable position friend, you can afford two of the best bikes in the country and you own one of the classic bikes in Indian biking history, seriously speaking if you can afford it go for a ninja. Or you could wait awhile and check out mahindra mojo it should be releasing in jan or so.sigpic
