Notorious Gypsy King

Love the detailing.Stuff like the air vents on the front fenders and the screw nacelles on the flared arches! The bonnet should have been left clean though!

Nikhil,

Why do want to do all this, keep it stock man. Looks good. Maybe you can try to toy around with changing the dial color, lighting etc etc but why change the whole setup.

just my suggestion.

i some how feel the dash board of the gypsy is to dull after seeing the new once which are in the market ,nowadays the bikes have better electronics on them, digitel speedo meter, fuel guage etc so therefore want to make the dashboard more alive, functional more sporty and make the interiors more welcoming as i spend most of my time in the gypsy than home ha ha ha ha (i luv my gypsy dude)

You may try the instrument cluster from the Chevy Beat; its pretty neat! Looks very motorcyclish!

Desmosedici · 2nd June 2010, 18:17

Cool Man, looking forward to your modifications on the interiors.

BTW how do you plan to make a totally new dashboard.

Keep posting pics though.

Cheers

I Think you should take it to the same workshop Khan_Sultan, gets his work done from.

I think it is a MASS workshop but they do not have an issue getting their hands dirty.

Go through the Offroad Rims and tyres thread. It's been discussed in detail there.

Desmosedici · 25th August 2010, 14:33

Go for Yoko Geo 215/75, Perfect Fit, no road noise, awesome on offroads as well. I am very much satisfied with them.

BFGs have a less grip on road as per the feedback from many.
