@eshan - What you expect in 5.65 lakhs tell me that, You cant expect a performance like R6 or Aprilia or ducati. Its more of like tourer with quiet decent speed and a good handling.

since you ask.....i expect the bike to be a little bit vibe free....ill show you a desi 180 which has clocked more than 25k and is a vibe free at redline!!!!...thats all mate....the only fact which scares the shit out of any biker at triple digit speeds.....it even ensures you hands to be engaged in a massage equipment!!!!
The ride and posture is top notch but of no use when you need some confidence when riding the bike faster than your thoughts.....

To be frank i didnt felt any vibes, now that can also be due to i didnt took the bike to 3 digits, and i had rode entire stretch on 4th gear and the bike moved comfortably in the baner traffic. And again do you think all the superbike owners buy the bike always to redline them?
See i feel if you are going to buy something which takes 3 digit speeds and doesnt vibrate then you are pointing the wrong bike my friend as i told what i felt and its more of a tourer class rather than a super sports bike, i am not comparing it with ninja 250 or even 220 or R15 as they are designed for speeds while this one is relaxed bike somthing which you can ride full day . Regarding the vibrations part tell me one thing doesnt the Pulsars or RTR vibrates at high speeds.

@ Alibaba - sorry buddy i know you work next door but i didn't had your number to call you.

@ anant - As it was afternoon i thought you would be in college so i didnt called you.

No dude!!!

Its called Aru traders, I believe. Doesn't DSG stock Petronas? I know he stocks AGIP for sure..

Aru Traders? Alright. Thanks!
Nope, DSG Stopped with Petronas long back.

I'm using Motul 300V FS since the past 23,000Kms. No complaints.(yet)
I just want to try out Petronas Sprinta. That's all.

Yes most of em....i will.
From a RTR or a pulsar it is expected since it is not according to international standards since it is preferred for high end motoring (no offence against pulsar or RTR owners and lovers)


All my point is the GT650R is superb and perfect but its assembly here 120kms away from home has F^&*%$ up its performance and everything....check for international reviews the bike is a gem in midsegment.....
The entire outlook changes when such beauty is dumped for cost cutting....

I think this one which i rode was not from the local assembly plant as it has clocked 3000 kms already as this one had no vibrations at all. And again today all the major companies have setup production plants in india, even yamaha, honda are doing it and more companies are following so is it like you wont buy the bike as its a home production.

And again imagine a illegal 600 cc import will cost you a bomb with all hassles so any day this is better.

See man again you told the ninja 400 is coming not the 650 some days back than how can you say the 650R wont cost a bomb??

And again i am not comparing it with any other bikes in its class as every bike has it + and - points which as a buyer one should accept.

Shrinath, were you born in 1910?

That makes you 101 years old now. Full century cross kar diya You are the seniormost rider we have now. Aap ko dekhke aapki age ka pata hi nahi lagta



Check the "Born on.." line in the image above

[RabidRacoon]

hahahahahahahaha

Btw there are many on the GT650R thread

can someone link me to this thread ?

Anybody can help me to source a Petronas Sprinta Fully Synth?
Any references would be helpful.

Gulfy...All you have to do is take a piss. You will piss oil !

[antz.bin]

@Shrinath So thoughtful of you.. not calling me for the test ride. Don't worry.. I ll arrange one myself

@Alibaba Shrinath should be brand ambassador of Santoor soap

@Gulfy The spot you were just told stocks all kinds of oils.. what do you want?

Vibes - No Vibes - Blah! Sorry I asked! I will ride it myself and decide it for self rather than hear the stories here!

Gulfy...All you have to do is take a piss. You will piss oil !

I thought he wanted Petronas, and not GULF oil

[antz.bin]

http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/news/180...670cc-jp8.html can be called a good Touring bike.. (IFF it has less vibes at cruise RPM i.e. 90-130 in top gear.) This is solely because of the dual purpose (tarmac+ off-road) nature of the bike, good fuel efficiency (46.6kmpl @ 90kmph on universally available and cheaper Diesel!!), excellent tank range(653km @90kmph), Rugged overall nature(military derived), Extremely good torque (53Nm @ 3300RPM ), decent power at the wheel (33 bhp.. i.e. same as Ninja 250R) and above all manageable weight (176Kg i.e. same as N250R). I would so kill to own one of these (IFF it vibrates less than a Sooraj/Bullet i.e.). Also I would point such a bike Ladakhwards in a heartbeat... I don't think many GT owners can claim this. (The cherry however is that the expected pricing of this bike is 1.75Lac)

A GT650R is however a 'fun' bike no doubt. And considering the variety we get here in India, the 'only' bike which we can buy in that money.

This just in! Rotomoids has just reported that N650R will be launched next week!! The only difference between the 2 bikes would be that there would be no test rides on the N650R, N650R is 8Kg lighter and I find the N650R a hell lot prettier with a Much more established service network and a Japanese reputation to live up to.
