Yamaha Gladiator is my first bike Even I learnt riding on it (after 2-3 rides on splender)
I must say it is effortless biking. The pick-up, handling, braking is really effortless till now (first service is still due though). But I was not able to get silver-red version instead I have to be satisfied with black-red (it also looks gr8 though)
When I shared my experience and bike with my friends, they said its control and pick-up is far better than pulsar. One of my friend told me he doesnt want to ride his pulsar now
Pick-up is a problem though. When I stop at market or in traffic, or have to brake suddenly, I have to go to 1st gear or the bike stops. I may attribute it to my lack of experience, but currently I am facing this problem.
Can anyone please suggest me about how to maintain good engine conditions before and after first service. Currently I am maintaining a speed of < 40kmph or 4x1000 rpm.
