This part of SH 88 is not perfect, with some potholes, at places, but would not make you feel uncomfortable. Once you hit the Bangalore Mangalore highway, you would encounter good tarmac. Once you reach Mangalore, you would reach a junction from where you should take the right towards Udupi (the NH 17). Road is in pretty good shape and you would enjoy riding here for sure, especially at one place you would encounter Kali river on your right and the Arabian sea on your left. This NH 17 takes you directly to Gokarna.
    Thank you, this is helpful.:thumbup:

      There is road widening work going on in mangalore to kundapur stretch. Please be careful on this stretch as the drivers can get pretty nasty on this road

              Hey guys,

              A little OT here.. But i dunno where to ask..

              Does anyone know where i can find a luggage carrier [the big ones: only the carrier, no boxes] for Bullets in Bangalore?? I know J.C road. but any specific shop where i can find good quality ones at a fair price??
              Its for a friend of mine.. We're planning a trip soon, and would like to get some info ASAP, please..
              Ive checked a few shops which are quoting me stupendous prices..[2500/- min, and they looked cheaply made] So i thought someone may be of a little help here..
              And along with that any possibility of there being one available for the NS too?? :P

              thanks..

                Check with Sandhya Auto and Fixwell Auto on JC road. Both these places are well known among Bullet riders. On JC road, take the small lane next to the SBI bank that leads you right to the shop. Both of them have the panniers that you are looking for and the build quality was good. The last time I inquired, Fixwell had quoted INR 1800/-.
