  • Not many options what should I go for?

    There are no signs of Ninja 250 till now
    SBK's are out of budget.
    Have a Zma and 2 royal enfields in my Garage.
    What should I buy?
    As of now I cant think of even one bike that I can call as an upgrade to any of these two machines I already own.
    Have to add another machine latest by March 09.
    Options?

    1)Ninja 250-No idea whether its going to hit our shores or not.

    2)Another Zma-ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

    3)R15-Too small for me and my bro

    4)P220-One option

    5)Thunderbird TBTS/500LB-either one of them are the only options

    6)Used Comet-Spares will be an issue since bike will be used for touring.

    Confused,Mad at the same time looking at sad state of the market.

              well even i was in the same state of mind some months back .. thats when i sold my pulsar i was done with it and i wanted an upgrade .. 1 upgarde that my mind and heart agreed to was the zma.. bt den it was outdated .. and since ill be using the bike atleast for 3years i did not want to regret my decission, and what is the use if you are not satisfied with the bike yourself.. i waited for some confirmation or offical news from bal regarding d ninja250.. but den nutting turned up .. so den i allways wanted to own a bullet .. so i went ahead and got my self a 1974 enfield.. allthough for now im content.. and ill not be eyeing any new bike .. but by may june ill be in the hunt again..and i hope atleast by den i get to see a better 200+cc bike .. hopefully the ninja and zma fi would be launched till den..

                        Well, official sources say that only A new End Can - some carbon fibre made, is to be added ...

                        and that P200 is going to be Fi ...

                        Bajaj Pulsar upgrades for 2009

                        What is your source for this 6th Cog & "re-worked" engine?? Kindly let we, thge common guys know?

                        @ Ansh: Nope, new Comet 250 won't be available. "Kinetic" itself is acquired by M&M ... You still have 2nd hand market though.

                            Which magazine? I read all Bike India Issues & yet found nothing ...

                            Bike India does say about Carbon Fibre Can & 200 Fi though ... nothing else?

                              No need to be hostile here. What Hydbiker says is true, it was indeed mentioned so in one of the magazined a friend of mine brought here. Whether this will turn out to be factual or not is another matter altogether.


                              That being said, hydbiker, from here on, please mention so in your initial post itself.


                              P.S. Samarth, again, when you report posts, refrain from telling the mods wheat and what not to do. Just drop one line about the part of the post you find that is not in accordance with the generally accepted etiquette. That is all.
