I am 6'2..And I currently ride a CBR250R. Although I have ridden the R-15 extensively as well. I would recommend you to go for the 250R, if you can spare the extra 50k. Remember, there is no replacemnt for displacement!

Ofcourse, I'm riding a TN registered bike all over RJ

!!!

You've to pay road tax to RJ Govt & then keep using it; from my knowledge I remember seeing a HMSI ASC enroute from Bikaner towards Laxmangargh & from the size of Bikaner, I assume there should be a small Honda workshop that can't be qualified for ASC like what you see in Jaisalmer. But Jodhpur has one good ASC for sure & has good stocks.

yes you can.. get a couple of blank tn petrol pump reciepts and enter a date of every 2 months... and keep this with you..

the rule is that if you are out of your state for more than 6 months, you need to get the bike registered. however, if you can proove that you have been to your hometown every 3 months, they will not harrass you... this works only at some places...

i used to do this during college days for my gujrat registered bike. just show them the fuel reciept for the last 2 months and claim that you are on a trip.. maybe they will let you off...

@aargee nice

i visited j.s.p honda at annanagar and they had ready stocks....how to shift the bike there anna?? i wud love to ride but my parents wont allow

@rockrz nice idea but u know luck wont favour us all the time :P

**HH_HUNK** · 09-11-2011, 07:33 PM

Go with CBR

If it fits your budget

Else the RTR is good too

**shv18** · 09-11-2011, 08:35 PM

For touring, CBR is a better bet. Not that R15 is bad or anything.. but in terms of long distance touring CBR has a better seating position for pillion too.

The only good thing about R15 is that in the later half once you are bored of the bike's current performance.. you can always soup it up courtesy Joel. (:.Welcome To Race Concepts.:)

so purely your call.

cheers

3. On the D-Day, take your bike from friend's house & start riding; route is simple; Chennai-Bangalore-NICE-Kholapur-Pune-Mumbai-Surat-Vadodara-Udaipur-Jodhpur-Pokhran-Jaisalmer

; you can do it in 3-4 days easily
