THanks Pankaj, I do remember at the time of purchasing an ex-bullet rider had purchased the bike and had also given clean references of this bike for long rides. That is what switched my decision in favor of Glx. I think what u did was a good idea, as it takes care of speeding and turning simult read more...
yes, there is this rear wheel skidding when u brake suddenly at high speeds, gotta b careful when there is loose wet soil in the early part of the rains. now, there is Flame.

general rule in the US is not to buy a ford after 3 years old, the nissan sunnys are more reliable. Fords are extremely good buys the first 3-4 years, but then they are designed to last this long, Beyond this remains how it is maintained and the owner's initiatives to make the best. A 7-year ol read more...
yes, i made the purchase based on a feedback from an ex-bullet salesguy who drives long. his feedback after 1500 kms was really good, also taking into account he had made a couple of long 150 km drives mumbai dahanu sector. The bike is a bit heavy, so winds dont draw u down. mine is two years old read more...
yeah, many bikes out there in the market and most are good.

Indians and India infrastructure are not ready for hi-tech hybrid cars. The extra high price in this case is one real deterrent. Secondly, we simply dont have the culture.
