Dream on this Bike

Well if your are really wanting a dream Bike, mostly that depends on ones' own self as to what he's looking for (Power/ Price/ Style etc). Of course money can make dreams come true.


I think that if you r lookin for a dream bike, Its Honda-Unicorn. Why?????


Well rather than giving u all a brief on the technicals, I'd rather try to explain why Unicorn has an edge over other.. But  there's one thing I'd like 2 tel u all, Just take a ride on it once, before U decide which one to buy & I'm sure you'll find it hard to resist.


This is Honda's first Bike launched in India. If u all r not aware then Honda is the first Which made a 4-cylinder Bike, absoulutely vibration less. And they have a proven track record across the globe. So we can trust that part. For the tech-spechs. Its 150cc with GR8 power. And Oh!!! the baby is as smoooooth as hot knife on butter.


Slient among the other bikes its a pleasure to ride it. Of course its pickup is not a match with Pulsar, its top speed is greater. Maintainence & Durability is part where both these bikes stand out together from the others.


As far as style goes, Pulsar gets an edge over Unicorn since most guys like the seating pos'n in Pulsar. But if looked closely Red Unicorn looks sexier than any Pulsar


Guys who want the seating like in Pulsar, you'll start hating it soon with back complaints & shoulder aches. Since seating on Pulsar puts pressure on shoulder as the whole weight is transfered when one leans forward. For Unicorn, they have desinged it so well for the Indian Roads. One sits exactly upright. No back & shoulder pains on Unicorn.


For control, Unicorn againg can be better controlled than Pulsar. Again due to the seating pos'n. you can make better turns & cuts. This bike changes lanes just by a little weight transfer. Better control on HI-Speeds since it has better breaks than Pulsar. One might tell that the tyres in Pulsar is wider hence more steady. Wrong dudes thats not how Physics works. To explain in depth, Unicorn has a best balance of the bike itself than any other. Its weight is directly over a Center of Gravity(COG). here's where the suspension comes into play(Monoshock). Many thought the Bike would be unstable etc. but monoshock gives better balance while riding since all the weight moves with the COG. that means better Tracktion, better Balance, Better turns, minimum vibration, better braking in all better control. This monoshcok is desinged to carry a Pillion with some luggage. Remember This is the only bike where U can control the suspension hard/ smooth etc. Most people find very difficult to belive this!!! Guys go check out photos of any Sports/ Super bikes. One thing you'll see very common...... No rear suspensions to be seen????? Why ????? bcoz they too have mono-suspension. Now U'll belive me & Honda. & to tell U the truth this is the only feature that makes it truly outstanding & amazing bike to drive also, this is why its avg is more than Pulsar(Country/ City Rd).


Officially its tank altough seems monstrous can hold 4/5 ltrs less than Pulsar. & if there are other things in which Pulsar wins, well then I sacrificed it for a Comfy Smooth Ride. No Pillion ever on My Unicorn has felt the engine vibration. & I've never actually holded the bike firmly while riding as U'd on other bikes. Most of the times I ride only with one Hand. & I take nasty turns on this bike... (MY dream turning style bending the bike, rather than turning its handle) & I, do scaringly bend it, I've tried like this on many bikes when I was ametuer &  always slipped. I did'nt try on any after some of those slips. & I just felt that I cld do it on Unicorn as soon as I rode it for the first time, I tried & sucess.... That moment I decided to Go for Unicorn. After all We buy Bikes for Riding, & a True Rider always wants a Comfy Ride.


So if you want a Dream Bike..............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Well here's one on which you can Dream On while riding


Regards,


Kaushik
