Well planning to buy a headset keeping in mind only the safety and the good posture.IT so happens that half the known population seems to remember me when I am driving. Hence o politely tell them and remind them of the same fact so that they don't keep ringing again and I can save a few bucks callin...g them back ;) I just need a headphone so that I can tell them to call in the approximate time I expect to be free in. If I see a red light coming up I can tell them t hold and enjoy the boom of the traffic shrouded under my helmet ;)Read More

I have been owning this phone for the last 18 months now and after having owned a Nokia 3310 and 2 Nokia 3315s and having lost the 3 sets I wanted to go for a Samsung C-100 but unfortunately it was out of production by the time I lost my last 3315 and the C-110 was its successor.

I pity you anupam for your kindness and lessons. Well first of all every body has a right to express their opinion and that does not mean I am getting whacked. And anyway it is those who are famous that face lot of criticism. And all the lessons you taught are useless. I dont hate competition. I lov...e my bike. And I dont caer about what other bikes are because nothing can be perfect and down the line everything has to go. My bike is perfect for me and I am happy with it. And last but not the least I have been completely honest,Read More

Preth, What do I say. That I am plain bored to deat by these HH fans. But please do note that I have not written any useless reviews and the vierwership and the ratings of the revirews demonstrate that fact. Anyway to each his own and I have been completely honest here. I also want mileage from my b...ike but that does not mean that HH is the be all and end all of mileage and I have doen a mistake by buying Galdi. I am very happy with its descent mileage touchwood.Read More

You have recommended Gladiator by only giving its negative points in your review. you have not only contradicted your self but also confused people like Balaji who would like to make a purchase.

I just changed my setup to expose that people like you who need to be distrusted ... Well I am getting the 63 in Gladi before second service. I think my Gladi will beat you ss hands down in mileage. Moreover you said in your own review that SS vibrates at 60 KM/Hr. Let me tell you that Gladi does no...t shake at all until upto 80 KM/hr when the vibrations just creep in for you to notice a little. At 80 KM/Hr you better get some vibrations to notice the speed you are at. Well at 80 itself the vibrations are hardly nitocable and I think you can safely go upto 100 on Gladi while on ss reaching 90 would be a topsy turvy ride.Read More

Hey peabrain ... I dont see any surge of Super Splendors on the road ... And if my reviewwas so stupid I dont understand how people rated it good. I think you are insulting all people who rated my review. And well I have ridden all the bikes except that I rated but that was in a showroom test drive ...and not from a friend. That is why I have not written any technical problems for the bikes except those which have been reported in large number by magazines and very close friends who are owners. Discover owners are happy with the bike though they do admit the problem of the gearbox. Honda Shine cant be driven beyond 65 KM/Hr and I have tried this. At 70 it vibrates as if its a tossed coin landed on a table. Glamour and SS are flops not because they have any particular wekness. They are a flop because thay have no particular strength.Read More

I am sick and tired of HH. These buffs and stooges are spoling my reviews needlessly cos thay cant stand one word of truth ... HH sucks big time ... Super Splendor, Glamour and CBZ Xtrme haveall flopped. And I think we all know how many Discovers and Pulsars are out their on the road ... If buyers o...f Pulsar were advising not to buy it then why the hell would it still continue to sell in so large numbners that even CBZ was not such a rage when it was launched. That is because CBZ (and even Karizma) did not have any mileage. It was only a performance bike while Pulsar has balance of both performance and efficiency. Pulsar 220 DTSFi is going to blow HH to smithereens.Read More

Yiou claim that you are not an HH insider ... Makes me wonder that you have joined just about two months back and mostly written bike reviews. Now why would a person do that. Their are so many things to review and leave comments on im MS. But still within last 2 months you have reviewed mostly bikes... and commended performance of only 1 manufactirer in ost of the reviews. I have given facts in all my reviews and given appropriate comments to justify. Users of MS can see who is who.Read More

None of your reviews has been rated 'Very Useful' by more than 3 people. I have two reviews voted 'Very Useful' by more than 5 people each. You have writeen 14 reviews and still not achieved this scale. I have written only 3 and achieved it in my first 2 reviews so keep your mouth shut on mouthshut.

Mouthshut is for ppl to write about what they buy. If you are such a motorcycling expert that you can tell about 7 bikes that you would have ridden each at different times than you should better know that you are not elligible for wrtiing review for any 1 of them. Any product and not only a motorcyc...le is best judged by the hands of its owner. Only bike experts will give geneeric comments about new bikes and that too they will give ample proof. You are bull shitting bike experts from magazines like Bike India who have stated that Gladi has a soft suspension and moreover it is my personal experience also. A bike taht has been driven by many people is not elligible for review because its tuning is all screwed up by having different people using it. SO if your firnds bikes give onyl 45 KMPL it is their fault of not having kept it single handed and giving it to people like you so that they can write baseless reviews. You can go and beat drums about SS which is a flop product but teh fact is that I am getting a mileage of 63 KMPL in Chennai city driving measured accurately reserve to reserve. If you sodont know how to drive and all keep your mouth shut. You are getting a mileage of 50 from SS as per your own review which really shows you dont know how to drive.Read More

the gearn\box on Gladiator is butter smooth and there are no false neautrals at all ... until of course you know how to drive and change gears on a bike. Also The bike doesnt stall ifyou keep it in the correct gear which again brings us to the point of knowing how to drive and this prioves how adity...a is not getting mileage with his bike. I have driven 1700 KM on my 2 month old bike and faced none of the problems mentioned even though I am a new rider. I think Aditya intends to write a review of Discover (abundant false neutrals) and Shine (stiff ride) and has instead combined negatives of both to write review for Gladiator.Read More

Hey Aditya you own a HH Super Splendor and making up facts about Gladiator and that too mileage without owning it. This guys facts are all lies. Gladiator is one of the most comfortable bikes to drive more so for tall people as it has quite a high seat. I am 5 ft. 11 inches myself and I dont find an...y problem or back ache. The point about the suspension being hard is totally baseless. Do you know the Gladiator's payload or weight carrying capacity. It can carry a maxi of 130 KGs as per Yamaha specs. That is because the bike has a very soft suspension which is good only for single driving and it is advisable not to ride pillion on it in order to keep the life of suspension longer. This is not my opinion. Read any good bike reviews in magazines like Bike India. Also the point about a pillion for good riding is true about Honda Shine which is very stiff riding single. I think your bike is not setup correctly. As for the mileage. MY average of 63 in Chennai city driving inclusdes highway bursts of 70 KM/Hr. And city driving of 50 KM/Hr. I am a new driver and still learning and this bike handles like a dream. Balalji dont get confused about all the mileage number. My one advice to you is that once you have a bike you wont first of all worry about mileage. And low end torque engines like Honda Shine will have mileage drop soon.Read More

Hh will continue to suck no matter how you buffs cry. Who needs a bike to last for 10 years when by that time their would be no support for it. In current scenario the price HH demands for Splendor and Passion is totally unworthy. The rural crowd is robbed by HH. Any well maintained bike will last f...or 5 years. Lets just re word it and say any well maintained bike will last for ever. Splendor may be the largest selling bike but that is bcos it did not have competition at the time of launch. But how is it facing the music now. Hardly get to see any new Splendors on the road in the crowd of Star and Platina. And a self start is a sefl start is a self start. Bicycles are driven by paddling not by engines so they dont need self start. If you want to kick with a fancy chick on the back of your bike and by some chance fail in your so called soft kick, :) And Splendor ihas nothing new in it to appela to the masses. And clubbing of whatever Class 1 & 3. The bikes have the same value for money so they deserve the same rating no matter what their class. HH has only resale value. Thats it. Otherwise they are basically fitting engines on bicycles. And for your information Star has the thickest rear wheel in the segment. I think for you that too also is non sense.Read More

Gloadiator gives an on road mileage of 63 KMPL reserve to reserve on Bharat Petroleum Speed. To be precise I drove 509 kms on 8 litres from reserve to reserve. This includes 35% highway driving that is about 175 KM was on highway at constant 60 KMH on 5th gear while the other 65% is in Chennai city ...variable traffice conditions.Read More

Guys its enough. Gladiator is giving me 63 KMPL reserve to reserve in city + highway driving where 65% would be city driving. Its a very descent figure and I think we people should give it better mileage ratings. So Gaurav please change your rating in mileage section by editing review. And going ...for 80 KMH on a fresh engine is not good. I have complete 1300 KMs and go to a maximum of 70 KMH at which there are slight vibrations. OVer all I am waiting for the secondservice to be completed and then give the throttle a twist. But its true the bike is an excellent handler.Read More
