Good Bike,Poor service
Yamaha Gladiator

Now about my own experience with this product, in first few paragraphs I narrated information about other products. And in later part I’ve mentioned about look, performance, price of this bike. Read it again. And I’ve clearly mentioned that it would be too early to say about performance of my bike a...nd I’ll keep updating you. So your first two points are wrong. When you said I am technically wrong regarding specifications of HH products, I would like to tell you that I’ve mentioned only about passion pro & not about any other bike. I wrote 97.5 cc and in actual it is 97.2 cc. Does it make a lot of difference? And that is not my mistake. I was given this information by their executive only. Basically my point was that that by paying around 50k one is going to get a bike less that 100cc & with no additional features. In your language its price/performance ratio is poor. I was not writing any essay on Passion Pro. Now about your objection about my comment on Honda shine. Did I write a word about its engine class or build quality? And I request you to read last para of my review again. And you would realise why I took efforts in writing this review. It is not written to show my knowledge of bikes or to promote Yamaha products. It is to express my thanks to those who helped me to take my decision (You are also one of them, I’d read your review as well & if you read the concern expressed by me you will realise that it is because of your review. Thanks again) & to help others in your way. I hope I’ve cleared all your doubts/objections. Read More

Dear Sayantan, I really appreciate that you took pain to read & rate & comment on my review (especially when you are already having this bike for 1 & half year). But I think you haven’t read my review properly. Every word (review in this case) is spoken or written keeping some particular perso...n or class of persons in mind. And it should be read or understood by keeping the understanding level of that class of audience only. If one goes to see a movie meant for children he should become a child first & then only he can enjoy that movie. With old man thinking he can’t enjoy a minute of it. Read my review in proper spirit & you can understand it. My review is for helping those who want to buy a new bike. And for that I’ve written the detailed comparison of all the bikes which I seen with Gladiator. The purpose is to help them to take their decision. And a prospective buyer wants such comparison. He is not interested in reading essay on the subject “my bike”, “My dream machine” etc. Because when you start making enquiry before buying anything everyone starts singing songs of their own choice. (I’ve that experience). And often people buy product just because his friend or relatives own this product or recommends that product. They don’t take pain to go to showroom all the companies. Many people normally don’t have clear preferences while taking decision; just because others are having Pulsar or Passion Pro they buy this bike. So I put all the information which I collected during my search for bike. I clearly mentioned my preferences, which bike I saw, why I rejected them, which bikes I short listed and finally why this bike failed in comparison with Gladiator. So a good reader can understand the features of gladiator. What is lacking in other bikes is available with Gladiator. (This is another way of telling the tale). .......... contd .........Read More

Hi Sambit, U r right. Really great bike. I saw once & decided to buy.Went to showroom,first booked it & then took test ride.So u can understand. Of course avg.will be low. But as you said who cares? But don't feel sad. Apache is also a good bike.

Thank u face-it for ur positive comment about my review. As far as Suzuki GS 150 is concerned, I wrote in my review itself that 150cc segment was not for me. So I have not tried that bike.
