, hint for you, how the complete damaged chassis or engine gets their replacement.

Oook. Now that you mention it that way, sounds possible. Will try and get pally with the engineer there and see if I can get the Karizma engine.

And an update - getting the Impulse on Wednesday if I can get time off from office.

Will start an ownership thread if I can. Thanks for all your inputs guys - appreciate it.

Thanks! Yes, intend to do some off-roading whenever I can!

Will try and get the bike tomorrow. Or else at least on Saturday - went and inspected the bike today. Looked all fine.

Congrats Naveen. What is the on-road price now. Saw an ad in one of the showrooms with Life time tax being offered as freebie.

Thanks a lot for that Santosh! Awesome, you saved me some 9k! Have cancelled booking at the other showroom and booked at Sai - will take delivery on Saturday since I am out of town until then. They have ready stocks!

Oh, please do start an ownership thread. Am particularly interested in how the bike pulls with a pillion, and in it's touring abilities. If you do get around to plonking in a bigger engine, please publish those details as well.

Thanks in advance! Enjoy the bike!

Thanks! Will be getting the bike on Saturday. I will start an ownership thread. Not sure how the engine thing will work out but we'll see.

Got the bike today - a delay of a few days since I was out of town. I'd love to post my first impressions and all but why spoil the fun? Wait for my ownership thread
