I needed a vehicle for the joy of riding a 2 wheeler.......and beleive me
a bullet gives maximum riding pleasure......
I considered fiero but then bullet is a class apart.....
I bought a 2nd hand 1992 model for 20k. It runs very smoothly and gives no problems....
Regular oil checking is necessary....to avoid serious problems....
The best thing that I liked is its thump....when I bought the bike it had a very loud monstrous thump.....it could be heard 2kms away....i asked my mechanic if it can be reduced....now my bullet gives a very small nice thump....so u can adjust the thump according to your personality......
Before buying a bullet you should find out a good bullet mechanic nearby......because normal mechanics dont work on bullet.....they may spoil the bullet....also bullet may give some small problems immediately
After buying(i dont know abt new bullets, mine is old) there are some settings...these are done well by bullet mechanics.....
Just ride the bike straight.....it goes through all potholes smoothly......bullet is best to cruise at 55-60 speed(i am talking abt 350cc).....the handle and control is very stable.....so bullet riders go on long tours etc.....although I am not a member of any bullet club........
Before buying 2nd hand bullet ask if it had an accident....because after accident some bullets become unstable........also try to find out if anything has been done on the engine.....
My bullet gives average of 25-30.......average should not be an issue if you are to buy the bullet.....
Bullet never falls or looses balance...but if there is a fall it has a reputation of breaking leg...so both front and rear crash gaurds are necessary.....
bullet is not a heavy motorcycle to ride....i am thin and tall....less than 60kg...but I easily handle the machine....
Although I had no intention of style....after buying bullet some people have started thiking I am stylish so I bought a bullet.....
People keep asking how I handle such a heavy bike...i tell them I dont pick up the bike and walk.....i sit on the bullet and ride......
happy riding!!!!
