]I am a proud owner of a YELLOW Apache EFi in delhi with double disc brakes. I had loved it in auto expo 08 and was waiting for it. I had always liked apache.looks was one of the main reason for buying it.I brought it through CPL autos(okhla phase2) new delhi.
The dealership experience was good. they did not have efi on display that day but they explained everything about it in detail, but I dunno why they were suggesting me to go for RTR and not EFi. they were interested in selling RTR more than Efi.
But i purchased an EFi as I was waiting for it. I had gone to book my bike but ended up taking delivery of it as they had just got yellow EFi. they told that EFi has a waiting period of 15 Days but I got immediate delivery because someone else had booked it earlier but postponed the delivery date as he was unable to pay balance on that day, whereas I was ready to pay full amount. so I got my bike immediately and took it home. the whole process was smooth.
I was alloted my vehicle number immediately. I am aNOVICE rider and this my first bike and I am still learning the nuances of biking. I am enjoying my bike. I got on 3rd september( ganesh chaturthi). and I have done 40 KM. so nothing much to write about but I found its handling easy and confidence inspiring for even a learner like me. it has got good pickup. and ride is good . I found the riding position comfortable. I am 5 10.
I have not gone for long rides so dont know about comfort on long drives.( I still dont have licence). please give me some good tips to improve my biking ability as I am learner. I have been told not to cross 50 KMPH for 1000 KM and I have not gone beyond 40 kmph. Fuel level indicator is not working properly as it just keeps blinking and does not show any specific fuel level.
I bought STUDDS helmet of rs 850 is it good?? it is half face helmet. I tried AGV but they had only few pieces and they were small for me as I have big head and big ears. ths studds fitted me well as I alsohave to wear spectacles all the time. I have also fitted AUTOCOP Bike Security system.it is easy to operate and provides good protection. I went for autocop as I have autocop in my car for 5 years and I was very satisfied with it and I think autocop is a very good company which makes good quality products. **please give your valuable tips to help improve my riding. your comments/ suggestion/tips will be highly appreciated and I shall be highly thankful to you for that.
