20 Best Motorcycles of this era
Twenty Best Bikes

This title should be changed to 'best performance bikes' as it is just a list of bikes arranged according to the power in decending order.But why Aquila in 2nd place below Eliminator.I can say this is not the complete article on this topic so that everybody can look for something.For me best or wors...t depends on lot of factors than just performance.A bike can perform to the maximum only if its engine is reliable;riding comfort and long term chassis reliability are also important.And the review is not based on these factors.Anyway everybody has the right to have their opinion as I have my opinion.I hope the Aquila buyer have good time ( after spending 1.5 L) without any problems as the bike is not tested for long term.Read More

FiVe WoRsT MoToRcYcLeS Of ThIs ErA
Five Worst Bikes

I expected this article after reading ur ' best 20 bikes'..But one or 2 things I would like to say. 1.Dawn ( now Cd-Dawn) is nothing but a stripped version Splendor which is in ur '20' list. 2.Max-100 is the cheapest ( along with Boxer ) bike in india .It has the name tag of 'No Problem bike' and ...lives up to that.Same applies for Samurai.That is why TVS is not making entry level 4 stroker and keeping Max series alive.( samurai is stopped now). 3.boxer ( AT,CT and all) is the IInd best seller after Splendor.People using these bikes are satisfied as predecessor 4S Champion. 4.I am really shocked to see CRUX in this list.The reason why Yamaha vehicles are less on road ( except Enticer and recycled RX-100s) is their pricing strategy and nothing to do with bikes themselves. For me any bike whether Aquila( 1.5L) or Boxer AT ( 30k)is made to take the rider from one place to other reliably without failing.So For the Money u r paying is the bike worth ( VFM) is the question u have to find answer.A person buying Boxer At knows how much to expect.And mentioning about Servants , mechanics is not nice.After all the mechanics are the people we are going for the servicing.Without servants and other helpers our lives will standstill nowadays.We should be happy that Indian market has something for everybody.( I hope the Aquila buyers get the value (1.5L) as the bike is not tested for long term)Read More

Bringing shame to the bike fame
Bajaj Kawasaki Boxer

I accept all the detection but not the conclusion .Different people have different needs.Some people drive for fun. some for out of necessity ( like me).some people like simple bikes some with more glamour and power.Boxer is meant for the first type who want a bike with minimum required for biking.F...or ur information Boxer is no 2 in sales after Splendor.Recently somebody wanted help in choosing between Victor and Boxer. The difference is around 14000 rupees for which what Victor type of bikes give is really value was the question.But then also the buyer may not require extra power and comfort ( even technology). If nobody is going to buy naturally it is going to flop in the market ( which is not the case). Most of the people writing reviews imagine that bikes are only meant for fun. May be true; But not everybody is buying for fun.U have to see the product and findout why it is like that and review on that. Like the reliability of the engine and slickness of the gears etc.,( by the way the look is not bad by any means).the Question is the Value for money.Is it worth the money u r paying ( in this case around 30-35k).For example GF125 was reviewed as super bike in all aspects.But the arrival of Pulsar150 turned the tables.In VFM front GF125 flopped.Economy segment is very important for the bike makers and that is why even Hero Honda introduced Cd-dawn with 35k price tag.Only thing with Boxer is it should have been named like 'Economiser' .Read More
