          Welcome Anup! Visit the forum often and learn about technical terms.

          As for the bullet, hope you bought a spare bike as well.

          Do not get me wring, Bullets are a great bike for as long as they are running.

                        I guess its a t bird seat, but its not fitting as well as it should be.
                        Going in for the disc was a good idea. By the way why did you opt for the a350?

                            @shadez: The prev. owner had messed up the seating. He had done some welding and had fixed a custom-made seat. Hence opted for a T-Bird seat. BTW, I have posted my experience in The Tourer section.

                            @need4torque: You are bang on! The seat just doesn't fit properly thanks to the welding. I dunno how to get it sorted. Any suggestions?

                            I went for the A350 bcoz my bike search wasn't that good. I didn't go through the right channels(read: Mechanic, Friends). But I have no regret in opting for this bike.
