Note from the Team-BHP Support Staff : Please take the time to use proper punctuation as per Team-BHP rules. Avoid...typing...like...this. Thanks.


Hi ALL. many thx for your heart warming wishes ! yes I too was not satisfied with these few pix ... will surely click good load of them tommo morning & have them posted for your pleasure !

Well The worst thing i could do was when i was parking my bike i slid the side stand & w/o looking down i left the bike (i didnt realize that the side stand didnt got engaged & the bie came down on fingure & made few scratch yes right on the day one got few scratches on the left handle... well i think the bad omen just went pass with all the good time to come).

My initial observations ...

I was very hesitant to drive the bike past 60-70 mark for the first reason of not being evry confident to ride the machine nicely after a span of 7years ... but after i crossed about 35kms on my odo i gained more confidence I was sen riding past 120 on odo. It was really smooth as i was able to over take, pas thru tight corners curves bends, bumps etc very smoothly ! I by the time reached home late felt as though i had been riding my ROCKET (my mt01) for quite few years ... It is a bit tough to move the bike back forth w/o engine & gear engaged say for parking etc cox of the 260KGS+ weight ... may be i will get more muscle in the time to come thru the gym i plan more vigorously ...

I when was waiting at Traffic signals could hear other fella on bike chatting about my Rocket ! few of them even asked what brand etc etc. I was initially embarrassed & bit nervous as who know who is who on road & could risk my bikes safety ! But i was confident on the torque pickup to evade any such move ... Well first time owning such a costly bike so was bit nervous initially !

As for MODS i would certainly like to add a HARLEY Vrod type of long handle if its technically & esthetically possible as i feel personally it will improve my sitting posture & give me a better & relaxed driving pleasure.

One querry ... SHould i tank it with normal petrol (against 93 or 97 octane) & keep adding additives to kee the health of my rockets injectors in shape.

93 is widely available so may be i can tank it Plus more additives to it ! What say you on it ! Whats more advisable ...

Will certainly post more pix tommo

Very Well placed but i miss those Bulges ... like the original JB ! I will hang around more at my gyms so to say regularly to shape up to look applicable for the bike (better say suitable ) )
