Also, all bike lovers, if anyone has any information about a trusted yezdi mechanic, please pass it on.. my dad’s good old yezdi is lying idle in the garage, and I want to bring that monster to life.. so if you know any trusted Yezdi mechanics in or around Chennai, please contact me @ 9841448282.. the bike is in running condition, but has some issues with the gearbox.. need to get it fixed and running again..

@ Deepak… 2004 Karizma 20,000 kilometers???????? I have a 2007 Sep CBZ Xtreme, 49,000 kilometers now..
@ Ananth.. superb review of TBTS and ZMR.. I need to get my extreme replaced.. I love the cbz pickup, and I want a racing style bike.. not much of a tourer.. mostly inside the city.. and occassional trips to Pondy.. thats all.. honestly, what do you suggest? ZMR or R 15?? like I said, I want superior pickup and top speeds.. I am used to that with the xtreme.. bitchy pickup.. and good top speed too.. bike does vibrate and wobble and all that, but who cares.. fear is fun

@Ananth
hey u say,
“At least for the first 1000 kilometres, the engine gets heated up pretty quickly and engine gets a bit noisy.”

so does it go/lessen after more ruuning??

just yest I encountered 1000past bike of a distant frn n it has tappet noise its really annoying.(the owner guy is wishing it to sell for just the noise) but more serious prob is there is considerable difference in pick-up for this bike. The bike I test ride 4 months back in showroom, had good initial pick-up.
Makes me re-think bout my booking of new one.

Ananth has given us so much confidence to go n buy !! thanks.
(CC : Royal Enfield Thunderbird Twinspark Review article)
Most probably I’m to book TBTS by this monday,(de say month after that to deliver)this showroom is in other town 1hour to us, so m gonna fit in the accessories once n for all, d day i get delivery.
ANY SUGGESTIONS??
de don’t give sideGuard as standard accs, which no doubt must buy but apart from that i think SareeGuard is very useful to me, does it kill the look?

P.S. classic didn really appeal me personally but showroom guy insists to give a serious thought wen I come on Monday( as350comes in same price n engine)
hope that won’t put me in dillema again.
Any advise in this regard??

Hey great review man… I really enjoyed reading it. I wud like 2 get a little help from u guys. Am planning to buy my 1st bike and am really confused. I am not sure which bike i should buy. I’ve been reading a lot of reviews and now i am even more confused. A few of my friends suggested P220 and a couple of others suggested me to go for the Bullet family. I want my ride to be the center of attraction to my friends as well as my cousins. Somebody pleeeaasse help me.
I am looking for a good looking, fast, solid bike with 40+ fuel efficiency and of course reliable after sales services.
Oh, and i am just a 20 years old and i would love to boast a little to my peers about my new ride…
Please HELP me….
