    First of all, i feel pity for the p220 owners who re discussing about the machines in this g2g thread. I understand the mindset of a premium bike owner. Its better if you people go for an up to down reading of your bikes discussion page. It may give a clear idea for you about the thing you re holding in between your legs. (i mean, thats how i got a clean idea of my zmr. None detailed me about the bike at delivery as it was unneeded for me for sure. And thats why the thread of zmr is that much alive still)

    In my opinion the pulsar class is definitely very special for its rough power it gives. If a p150 can cross 100 kmph without heavy stress, why should we bother about p220 crossing or maintaining 120? Otherwise the increase of 70 cc and a 7 bhp (may be incorrect) ll surely be waste....
    So my request...
    Just rip...rip...and rip. Otherwise go for a p180... (i was and is pulserated... But some preferences made me to chose zmr. And i still believe, I completed the last 3 day trip with ease due to the tourer class quality my bike provides)

    And we ll try the comparo in next ride...

    @kochumvk: due to the pulsar fever you have not given a follow up on the matter we re discussing about. As vishnu has pointed there is one who have crossed 1600 km a day. So think about the preference. To break the record or just a long trip?
    @silentknight: thanks buddy... When you come here as a free bird, we ll be planning a ride meant for you... And we miss your innocent smile too....

    Sorry for misusing the thread buddy.

    But you are true about the fever

    Doing 1600 is it a saddle score run as I mentioned ?
    Can we do 1600? Don forget about other bikes also.

    will discuss it in next G2G , probably this wk itself.
    @ swas
    What do you think.?(1600)

        1600 is a great number for sure.......... and I am bit confused abt other bikes...................
        thats why i asked about the preferences..............
        started riding a motorized cycle on a chetak classic.
        Learned to accelerate on Y RX100&135.
        Learned not to fall down, the patience to heal wound on knee and to ride long on a classic Pulsar 150(still running)&180.....

              Sure, I agree with this point. So we should have to account that.

              but my question is another.....

              Do u think that your bike (or swaroops) can face this length? (take it as a direct question. Asking thisn because I have no riding experince on FZ)

                          Where are you man? No inputs from you reg the trips?

                          @Vishnu

                          It looks like no such rides (compatible to your 1 day spec ) is going to happen soon. Now every one is looking for longer blasts.

                              • I'm planning a trip to Thekkady - Vagamon - Idukki next week.

                                Day 1 : Chennai - Thekkady - Boating in Periyar Lake.

                                Day 2 : Thekkady - Vagamon (signseeing) - Idukki (Sightseeing + Night stay)

                                Day 3 : Idukki - Cumbam - Chennai

                                Any pointers towards road / weather conditions around Thekkady / Vagamon & Idukki would help.

                                Is there a direct road connecting Vagamon to Idukki? Google Maps suggests a route connecting idukki via Muttom & Kulamavu. Could we by pass them and reach Idukki via any other route?

                                I'm starting this Wednesday and any help would be of immense help
