Yamaha Gladiator

Hi All


I had taken the Gladiator for a ride two weeks back at the Go karting centre in Palace Grounds in Bangalore.


To put is sweet adn fast and simple.


Looks - average but still clean lines. Nothing stunning to sceam out.


Front disk brakes - is it really needed on a 125 cc - its overkill I feel.


Engine power - The TVS Victor 125 has more kick in the heartbeat. This one is not up to the mark.


5 gears - One gear too much for this bike, 4 is suffice.


Road grip - FANTASTIC


Turns - The bike is real low set so on taking turns its great. I took


30 degree turns on doubles at 20 kph and the tyre held the bike held to


the floor like a magnet on to iron. No two thoughts there.


Reminds me of the old days when the RX100 was king of all


surveyed. It was real fun to feel the bike bank real low on the


turn and pull out in sheer grace. The same trademark is returned here.


Loved that one aspect of the bike. Then of course the electronic gear


indicator is something real cool on a bike. NAd and, ... the balance is


fantastic.


Intresed go buy I would say yes but is only for first time bikers and


for city use. Dont ask me of hte milage part. I have no idea. This bike


is NOT built for ripping the tar. For that go buy Apache /


Pulsar etc


Bye
