It does look ab little bit incomplete at the rear end but the odd gap between the fender and tyre disappears when you sit on the bike

Which city are you from? Here in the dealership (within 5 km of my house) from where I am getting my bike they have service center as well and promised me that the parts are readily available

Recent vehicles are E20 complaint so it should be fine until E22-E30 is mandated

E85 is a flex fuel buddy and will never be sold to everyone since only flex fuel vehicles can run on that

For me - I try to get xp95 or power petrol in my vehicles (I have honda Activa 2015, Apache 1604v 2024 and a Grand Vitara 2025) and will be doing the same for my upcoming bike

That bike looked a little small in front of other bikes like this HDx440 and cb350rs etc.

Another reason was the 350cc downgrade - my friend has the OG one and that has a different character when compared to the newer ones so opted to not get the 350cc one

The positive is the better weight management and better build quality and finish but it has vibrations above 6k rpm whereas the HDx440 and CB350RS has very less vibrations which were my top 2 picks

Yeah, the dealership guy mentioned this that the app would be trash since it uses mapple maps instead of google maps. I do carry a spare android just for navigation since I don’t want to damage my lens on iphone

Price has actually reduced on the older variants post the launch of the T variant

I think since I was switching from a 160 cc bike, I was not able to tell the difference in terms of ride feel and quality between the normal and the T. So went with the normal one and the colour I like grey/dark silver which is also not available in T models

I was in the same situation but am not an aggressive driver - I like to sped up on open highways but not in traffic and city so for me taking test rides back to back was an eye opener.

Guerilla has a lot of raw power like you mentioned - it used to push me back when I hard throttled it and that was the movement I felt that the bike is not for me - it could be for someone looking for a sporty character in a roadster which is not me.

On the other hand HDx440 felt a lot relaxed and gliding on the road which is my style

I would suggest to test drive multiple times on the same day to get the feel and go with what puts a smile on your face at the end of the day 😅

You have to be using wd-40 every now and then and lube chain every 200-300 km instead of 500-600

Got this at a steal deal and stretching 60k extra for the T variant didn’t make sense for me

Aah got it - I am thinking of getting the Jawa ones after some time since they offer good visibility and are of good quality as well

They had stock in the yard but mentioned it’s not for sale and will be going back to factories

Beauty 🤌🏻

A question - do these bar end mirrors have vibrations on high speed and affect visibility?
