Thanks guys for the reply.
I had a short test ride of GS and didn't like it much .. specially compared to Uni .. this may be because of many factors though.

For the GS vs Unicorn fight, see Bike India Feb issue. Even they say its a very close call. Unicorn shines when it comes to the ride quality - but the GS is an overall better buy due to the value additions and killer pricing

Read it yesterday and I am not liking it after the test ride not just by seeing it. THat test ride may not be the perfect one but in the end, I liked Unicorn over GS.

Ask your better half! Also, would suggest getting the gear shift lever changed to the heel&toe lever so as to save your formal shoes!

She is also confused

b/w RTR and Uni .. though she has not sit on any of those.

I don't wear rather I don't have any formal shoes ..

I'm sorry if this sounds funny...but go by the size of both of your rear portions to judge seating comfort then!

That's pretty crude .. I must say

.. but it may work.

@Chauhan_Saurabh : The older Uni's (1st gen, 2nd gen and 3rd gen) all had a heel-and-toe shifter. So getting one wouldn't be any issue man

I own a 1st gen Uni and its ride quality is simply amazing. Honda's somehow managed to strike the right compromise between ride quality and handling prowess.

Im sure the seat will be more than enough for two people man. The showroom people will allow you take a TD with your better half

Cheers..!!

P.S : The GS console rocks, but the rest of the bike just doesn't seem to impress.
Id been to the Zuki showroom the other day to drool at the 'Busa's there

@Maverick
Thanks man for the info .. but as of now I am not interested in the tow-heel shifter .. I am pretty ok with toe only as I generally wear sports shoes or floaters.

Then go to your nearest Honda showroom and get yourself a Uni in Pearl Black mate..!!

Yes, I was also thinking on the same line

till Today morning but now I have postponed my plans as I am soon going out of India for 1 month and I can't leave my new baby alone for that much time

. Sad, but I'd to postpone it.

So for me, it's a pearl black Unicorn unless we get something new by March or my mind just evolves during this time

.

**MavericK46** · 01-27-2009, 09:25 PM

Thats a wise decision man

No point in buying a brand new bike and then leaving her parked in your garage for a month. Im pretty sure that nothing smashing is gonna be launched by March.
Atleast not something that's gonna be remotely affordable by me

Keep us updated on the new addition to your family(garage

) then..!!
