People will definitely be calling it "sasta white" irrespective of the looks and price

So today, I was washing my scooty and this big nail was in my tyre, (but my tyre air pressure was good has the nail hit the extra rubber on the sides?)

It still feels like a dream tbh

Lets see yall collection

How can a motorcycle be this beautiful man ❤️ I’ve made plans quite a time to book cali green but chrome gt is stopping me doing that.

Does anyone else experience this on the Duke 390?
Sometimes I’m riding in a higher gear and feel like the bike isn’t pulling strongly enough, so I downshift to get more power. But then the revs jump up, the bike feels too aggressive, and I get a jerk that makes me feel like I’m in too low a gear.
So I end up shifting back up again, only to feel like I’m lacking power. 💀
Basically, I feel stuck between two gears, unsure which one is right for the situation.
How do you guys decide when to downshift versus staying in a higher gear? Do you go by RPM, engine sound, throttle response, or just experience?
Would love to hear how you experienced Duke 390 riders handle this, especially in city traffic.(OC)

Bought these cool alpinestars gloves from bangkok. Steal deal !! Go to Pro Shop Paddock store.

I was looking for a retro styled bike around the range of 3L rupees with good performance

I had already ridden the OG 400cc triumph, and it was an absolute bliss to ride, there was power at my dispense at any gear waiting to be unleashed, even at high gears it pulls like crazy and keeps pulling

I had seen many reviews on YouTube saying that there isn't a big change in performance after change in CC and in fact the bike is more refined and has better mileage compared to the 400cc triumph

But after taking the test drive of 350cc triumph i could not help but notice the lack of power ( compared to 400 cc) in the lower and mid rev range ( these rev range is really important, at least for me as this is the rev range, i will be using to ride most of the time in city rides and comes in hand for overtakes), 350cc speed feel mostly meh in the low end, most of the power in this bike is generated in the high rpms

I know its not a long stroke engine and we need to chase the redline to unlock the performance, but this engine seems to produce that performance abruptly, there is build or any thing, suddenly after

6.5-7k rpm. I find this nature very odd

I think it is because the speed 350cc was not built with purpose or character in mind , it was built for monetary benefit after the tax reforms,

And they have already hiked the price after 350cc launch.

And the other thing is RE guys gave quotation of RE guerilla 450 — Rs 3.36L(Karnataka) with 4k worth accessories even after being in the 40% bracket and with an ex showroom price of 2.51 lakh.

Got my meteor 350 last month and since then I’ve basically only used it for city rides like office, friends places, and that’s it. Finally i got some time to take it out properly, so I rode to a nearby city because i really wanted to test the handling and reliability on highways. Ngl, I was actually pretty impressed with how the bike handled everything. The stability and overall feel were way better than I expected. I know my fellow Meteor owners will understand the feeling 😂

16 yo bike enthusiast here,I am not the best cameraman but I tried my best to make my dad's discover 100 2011 ( BS3 ) look fine. This bike has a lot of sentimental value for me as it is practically my childhood.

I am thinking about getting it wrapped too cuz the stickers are pretty beat up, suggestions pleasee!!

I've changed CDI ( last wala kharab hogaya tha ) and spark plugs. Is there anything else that I should change? It gets serviced atleast once every 3 months too.

I placed an order for M-size riding pants on 9th October and returned them the very next day due to sizing issues. They received the return on 14th October. Since they have no exchange policy, I requested an XL size instead, but they refused.
I explained that I needed the pants before 28th October because I have my first long bike ride planned for that day. I kept asking if they could arrange the XL size in time, but they couldn’t confirm anything. On 20th October, they finally said delivery before the 28th wasn’t possible, so I requested a refund to purchase elsewhere.
I paid ₹8,668 in total (₹8,499 for the pants + ₹169 shipping). After several requests, they agreed to refund through the original payment method. The problem is, I paid through Snapmint, have already paid 1 EMI, and have 2 EMIs remaining. Now I don’t even know how I’ll receive my refund or how it will be adjusted against my Snapmint payments.
On top of that, they suddenly mentioned ₹399 in return charges and are refunding only ₹8,100 out of ₹8,668.
Honestly, the whole experience has been frustrating. Poor communication, no exchange option, unexpected deductions, and no clarity about how I’ll actually get my money back. Very disappointing experience with Bikester Global.

USED CHATGPT TO MAKE IT SHORT….

I am getting a Ducati approved Preowned Streetfighter v2s 2025 model for 16 Lakhs. There might be some more charges over it that i am not sure about. Anyone who owns a similar bike? Can you please advise if this is a good deal? I am also waiting for the Street Triple RS 2027 but Ducati is my dream bike.

I just booked my first bike and it's a supernova black meteor 350 l added the following options from the
RE apP,
Slumpgaurd
Air fly Evo guard rails
Black seats
Foot pegs
Drag handlebar
Black bar end round mirror
I'm 18(M) and am so excited to get my first bike and ride it l've not ridden much before (mostly just in my building and back roads on my friends bike) but I'm planning on riding this all the time when I'm back home from college any idea how much time delivery takes usually and how I should make sure it's well maintained also any advice on riding gear and riding in general for a beginner like me?

Few set of good mods made riding the scrambler literally ANYWHERE so easy. We were riding on very steep climbs with rocks to get to a location we saw from far away with a full luggage setup

(Yes there is a saddle stay for the rackless bags for a very good reason and that contributed with the fitment of the bags very positively)

Hey Folks,

This is celebratory post for my Activa. She completed 10K kms a week back.

On the occasion of Vijayadashmi, I thought I will post given how far we have come.

I bought in Delhi NCR when I cleared my CA exams and from my own salary back in November 2022. At that time, I did not drive it much and only for local commute. Few months later, I later bought a car (again a Honda) and used it for all work commute. So, I drove her only for 2-3K Kms till the end of 2024.

Honestly, it was my father only at home who used to take care of her, get her serviced and washed. I never understood why he was so attached to our cars and bikes at home. He would even go so far to take her to service centre to fix minor dents (except he kept one minor dent as a Nazar Battu)

Eventually, I moved to Bangalore, away from home and knowing Bangalore traffic, I decided to take her and not my car. Since then, my Activa and I have ridden almost 8K kms despite the fact that my office is just 500 metres from my stay. I feel so grateful that I have it here.

Last week she completed 10K and I feel so proud. I don’t know I feel like I am some parent and my child is doing so well. Lol. There is a long way to go still.

Few years back, we had sold our Honda City after 14 years because of Delhi Rules. My mom was so sad and literally all my family my father mother me and my sister went to dealership when that car was sold.

I didn’t understand it then. Now I do.

Hey guys, there are these white powder like spots all over my car and bike😭😭 I tried getting the car washed, but they’re still there. I even tried using 3M rubbing compound, but that didn’t work either

Has anyone faced something similar? Any suggestions on how to get rid of these spots without damaging the paint or plastic parts? I have attached some pictures for reference. Any help would be appreciated!

these are some of the helmets I've shortlisted based on reviews on the sub.
lmk if I shall consider any other models too.
My usage will be daily 60km commute.

Bro's engine has a nice bike

I bought a bike from a bajaj dealership what they gave me as mendotery helmet ?
