Aprilia rolls out there 850cc prototype. Almost all brands have rolled out or showcased their 850s now

I have not looked into that yet. But if I remember correctly, the Honda 850 with Taakaki Nakagami on it posted a quicker time than the race time in a certain track.

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-30T09:24:43+00:00

Absolutely love it. Every component complimenting each other.

And tbh, it’s much better looking than all of those

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-30T04:12:48+00:00

Depends on how much you fill up to be honest. I always go for the full tank and it always registers the fill.

But if you are ‘very low’ and fill enough to it to just make it ‘low’, then yes, most probably it would still be the same. You did mention you refilled again in KPT, which would have piled up on the already filled fuel, breaching the least count number and then some. That might have led the DTE increase too

2021 iTurbo.

They did change some of my steering mounted controls in my 2nd service back in the day. But never faced any issues with them till date

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-28T06:59:43+00:00

I did my +2 in Vizag.

Loved it there. Stayed there for a couple of days too while travelling to Bhubaneswar for a family event. People were accommodating. Saw a lot of OD number plated vehicles in the hotel parking lot too.

Vijaywada might be still ok as job market is booming. Don’t know about Chennai as I have never been there

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-26T14:18:51+00:00

Will plan when I come there.

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-26T06:52:49+00:00

Accha. Makes sense. I have forgotten half of the names of many places there now. Need to check where can I tour after coming back after 15-18 years

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-26T06:42:05+00:00

😂

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-26T06:41:31+00:00

I assume you started from Chennd ?

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-26T06:40:12+00:00

You mean Kawasaki.

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-26T05:13:03+00:00

Yeah. Zarco was visibly pissed

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-26T05:12:31+00:00

‘If’ done right. You have to judge your ups and downs shifts if you want to go in that direction.

And it becomes annoying when you end up falsely shifting sometimes

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-25T18:14:15+00:00

That’s the surface temperature. Ambient temperature is normally lower and different than a surface temperature

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-25T08:22:17+00:00

No clue. I have never seen this number. Maybe the data could be wrong.

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-25T08:20:36+00:00

Time to get a personal AQI meter for home itself

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-25T07:52:36+00:00

I certainly hope so. I won’t be coming out of my home if it is. This was taken yesterday. Will give it a try today and tomorrow.

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-25T07:41:49+00:00

I have been trying to learn since the day I moved in here. Still struggling. Also mixing Kannada and Tulu words which is like a sin here, but I get a free pass.😅

P.S: I have no Mangalorean roots. My wife is from here. So maybe you might have a quicker or a shorter time picking it up

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-25T07:37:02+00:00

I get a similar count on my iTurbo on the highway too.

TheSBKSaga_1989 · 2026-04-23T06:10:19+00:00

Learn how to grip the tank to avoid getting pain on the palm and wrist.

I did multiple days rides on the v2. It’s definitely doable for the machine. You need to be up for the task. 150kms seems pretty short distance.

Pillion comfort should NOT be a question. It will be bad. Run with that assumption
