It took me quite a long time to settle on to this one. But this Nikon has fascinated me. The build quality is far superior to Canon. In fact it looks and feels so solid that it is far too much for the entry level SLR. All the buttons are of excellent quality. The grip is great. The camera looks ...Read more

Well, that was a good review I thought until I saw Schumacher's name there. The consistancy you are talking about is a part of luck in F1. The more reliable the car, the more consistant you become. Michael was always associated with the best of the teams. While Mika had to struggle with his car, eve...rytime he drove it. He was arguably the better of the two. And, he surely possessed the same amount of talent as Michael's, if not more. With a reliable car what he is, became clear in 98 and 99. Outqualifying Ayrton Senna in debut race was not a joke. His overtaking manouvre over Michael at Spa Franchorchamps in 2000 was the best in F1 ever. Mika, with his phenomenal balance and millimeter perfect accuracy, deserved better success than Michael. Might be debatable, but true.Read More

You can really get to 100+ kph on fiero. I own a 2001 model. I also ride it in bangalore. It goes to touch 105-108 kph. I think you should ask the mechanic to adjust the air/fuel mixture. I think it is breathing the air less. And the mileage I'm getting is 52-53. Wake up man. For a 150cc bike this m...ileage is really excellent. If you need more, you set a more leaner air/fuel mixture. You'll reach upto 67-58 kpl but it won't even reach 90kph then!
And, if you are worried about tyres, you can go for Michelin M45 2.75 X 18 at front and 3.00 X 18 at rear. These tyres are softer, wear lot more faster but stick to the road like glue, even in rain! But they are expensive. Pair would cost 2200 to 2500/-.
Else, you can go with Nylogrip it is also very good for rain because of its central groove. For dry road, you can have MRF Zapper C fitted at rear and Zapper F at front.
And cheer up friend, you've got the best possible bike. The engine is amazing, the gearbox is butter smooth. It damn reliable. My 4 years of experience says so!Read More

Hi,
Your review is not really good. first of all you included fiero in it. Here is a point I want to make clear. My fiero is 4 yr old now. I have changed the tyre once and brake shoe twice - F/R. and it has done 35k km. Absolutely no probs. Top class paint. I've used it in Mumbai/Pune rain for mo...re than 3 years and no signs of rust yet. Even after 4 years, half kick start in the winter too! The switches are top class. I just changed rear suspesions to Shogun's. Read my review 'Making your Fiero better...!'. You'll come to know what a Fiero actually is. If you are unhappy, you better settle for a pulsar. The one with a dirty gearbox, noisy engine and narrow seat specially designed for severe backache.Read More

The rusting is common problem in glamour. My bike stayed out in rain for 2 days. I got traces of rust on handlebars, rims and silenser. The gear box is very notchy. Hero Honda is selling a crap now.

Hi Kaveree,
Your review is a nice one. but don't you think the overall dimensions of Nova makes it difficult for Mumbai traffic? I have one more point here. The rear grab handle of Nova is made of reinforced plastic. Once the mounting breaks, you need to replace the entire thing. I think the mile...age you are getting is far superior than what company claims. Nova wins hands down on userfriendliness. But few shortcomings are there like crude engine and fearsome handling.Read More

This is for the Fiero fans! We all know that the older Fiero has got the best engine on board. Really the best 150 cc engine in India. Those who doubt, should drive a Fiero! It is famous for its silky smooth and rev-free nature. But the Fiero has got a massive flaw. The rear suspensions. The su...Read more
