Welcome to the new era of biking on indian roads. I dont give a damn if there r guys who like to arch their back and ride thei pulsars, karizmas and yamahas cutting through city traffic , I believe in comfort and thats why its the Thunderbird.
I am new to biking and I learnt to ride my first bike , the TB, nothing comes close to the learning experience on this bike.
Here is the summary
Model : Thunderbird (2006 Make), Disk Brakes , Electric Start
Learning Curve : Great !.Good news for learners who can balance on a cycle / Non gear motorcycle/Scooty , u can get on the road (Pune roads) within 3 to 4 days. Push it to a week incase u dont have enough time to practise or if you are slightly slow at learning things.
Maintainance : Clean it regularly for that shine on the chrome, else doesnt need much.
Km/Litre : 35 to 42 Never below that
Stability : awsome !!!, u will never find a bike that you can balance at just 5 kmph without much handlebar movement.
Comfort : 1)Rider : Good , no backache
2)Pillion : Good , No backache, Back rest gives good support
Style : Commanding looks , everybody will definitely give a second look
Negatives : Once you ride the thunderbird , you would never want to even touch another bike on indian roads.
Price (Subject to change) : 77K Factory Outlet + 8K VAT + 2K 3rd party insurance + RTO 1 to 6 K= 89K to 95K
Go pick yours right away
