  • A question to the knowledgeable people here.
    Got the following specifications from the Kawasaki Indonesia website for the FI 2013 N250. Link :Kawasaki Motor Indonesia
    Though in different languages its easy to interpret the details. Seems the new N250 has reduced power and torque by 1 PS and 1 Nm respectively. Also 2012 N250 delivered 22Nm torque at 8200 Rpm. The 2013 delivers max torque 21Nm at 10000 Rpm. Doesn't it mean there will be lesser torque at low and mid range rpm in 2013 version? Or am I going wrong somewhere?
    Very True- "Motorcycling is not, of itself, inherently dangerous. It is, however, extremely unforgiving of inattention, ignorance, incompetence, or stupidity."

    I like- "Bikes are not supposed to be a rational decision. If you can park it and walk away without looking back to admire it, you got the wrong one."

      Though I am not a knowledgeable person, your interpretation seems to be right. However,I seriously doubt that the specs would be correct. A power spread between 10 & 11,000 rpm i.e. in a range of only 1000 rpm is difficult to access.

          If you can specify what you mean by a long ride, people might be able to suggest options.

            I had a sudden urge to ride last month. I could suppress it for just 15days. After that, I rode alone to Leh. Will that plan be alright with you ?? Or did you have anything else in mind?

                Hi All,

                2. Hubli - Karnataka
                Live to ride, ride to live

                        • When riding from Mumbai to Pune on 19-Aug (Sunday), I witnessed several bikers (riding responsibly) in the direction of Pune-Mumbai somewhere near Khopoli or so (can't remember where) around 3:45 PM.

                          I was on my Red CBR with black tail bag; wondering if they were xBhpian

                                The road between C and D is good. Atleast were good last year. And they were fresh - so I can hope that it will be decently rideable tarmac this year.

                                Have added my name to the tentative list. Will confirm in a day or two. Need to get my motorbike serviced.
