Proud owner of a thunderbird writing his experience with the power machine...
A perfect blend of bike and bullet... worth the penny you pay...
Luv it becoz
---------------
Good control and steady ride
Comfortable seat even for the pillion rider
Stylish
The power
Mileage ( I have got 40kms in Bangalore city for the past one year and I think it is good enough for a 350cc bike )
No starting hassles like in the orthodox bullet
Perfect bike for a looooong drive
Always better to
---------------------
change your clutch/accelerator cable to the new one. The old type breaks quite frequently
Go for the disc brake. It is really difficult to stop the bike at high speed without one.
Give for a service after a long drive.
Improvements to be made
---------------------------------
As someone pointed out in ealier review, the neutral indicator light has a dark cover which makes it difficult to see in daylight.
I had problems with oil leakage at the starting. But nowadays ( now one year ) I find it less.
The side indicators doesn’t have any sound. I don’t prefer a harsh beeping voice like other bike... but at least hey should keep a small ’tik tik’ sound. Most of the time I forget to switch my indicator off.
Overall
---------
A good bike... but we don’t get the raw feeling that we get in the orthodox bullet...
