Hi Benji I have the cassette for quite a long time. Prefer A side to B!! But repeated playing has made it - slightly down!! Where do you get it in CD? Regards, Jacob.
Commented on christantrik's review
That was a very informative and detailed review. Need to do something similar to mine. I'm still thinkin' which would be better - doing something similar to what you did and making the rx look new, or retaining the Retro looks. Let's see.
Commented on Murugaraji's review
Hi Muruga I don't know why the gears are very hard on your bike. Hero Honda / Unicorn have very good gear-boxes. My friend had a CBZ* with hard gears (brand new). We took it on a long ride on ECR upto Kovalam on a holiday. After that there were no more gear problems.

Hi Happy New Year to you too. I sold my RX135 for a RX100. I agree with everything you say about the 135. It is a very good bike. The max fuel efficiency I got is - guess what - 51 kmpl!! But the fastest I could go was 100 (with lot of strain that too)!! Looks like my buddy was tuned for only mile read more...

Hi Not much difference between the HH and Honda engines. I agree Uni is the best in the refinement and comfort levels but when it comes to our Indian roads, not much difference between the two!! If you are looking for style go for the CBZ/Hunk. Looking for handling, Apache. The best engine - Uni. read more...

Hi Karthik I'm sure you would have enjoyed the Bangalore - Chennai ride!! I too used to go biking from Bangalore to Chennai (twice up and down - with rx135).

Commented on vikrang's review
Splendor is probably the best vehicle for Chennai road conditions and the worst for Bangalore. Height-wise I don't think it will be correct for you!! A Unicorn or Pulsar would fit you better.
Commented on YesJay's review
Nice review. However after riding a 100cc bike for around 10 yrs didn't you feel like upgrading to a more efficient bike!!? :-)
Commented on subodhmouth's review
Personally I feel that the CT100 is better for city and the Splendor is the best 100cc for highways. Handling on Splendor is consistent throughout. But in stop-and-go traffic, and where there are too many speed-breakers, CT-100 is better.

Hi That sounds like quite a good list. Preferences of music are usually subjective, and one may like a certain song that another might not and vice versa.

This was a very good review. A bike that you might not find in the roads nowadays. Atleast not a good number of them. Is it still in a running condition? If so does it still use the stock parts? Or any modifications? What about it's top speed? Yezdi/Jawa were always good in their technology. A pity read more...

Earlier I thought that the Discover was the best 125cc vehicle - with all its features and its power. But Bajaj has removed Disc from that category and made it a 125cc. I don't think XCD can fill the space taken by Disc!! Because Disc was too good. So Glady is now the best 125cc, I think its sales w read more...
Commented on C_U_SOON's review
125 cc would be better than 100cc. The difference in mileage will not matter. PP might give ~60 in city and XCD ~55 in city. 100cc puffs and pants when you have a pillion.
Commented on get2manoj's review
I agree with what Sandeep says about the gear changes - it's an art that comes by practice - not only on the tbird but on any bike. Any bullet needs a lot of maintenance but it is a great vehicle in the long run.
